TOP STORY
Prominent Bitcoin critic Peter Schiff has once again sounded the alarm, calling for Bitcoin to potentially drop toward $75,000 — below Strategy’s average cost price.
In an Aug. 26 post on X, Schiff pointed out that Bitcoin slipped below $109,000 — about a 13% correction from recent highs.
He said the decline highlights downside risk despite strong hype and corporate accumulation.
Schiff suggested holders should consider selling now and buying back at lower levels, but stressed his advice doesn’t apply to those who don’t already own BTC.
