Peter Schiff a huge Bitcoin sceptic yet
While various market bulls have adored Bitcoin and have been delighted about the latest milestone, other skeptics have been steadfast in maintaining a more traditional outlook on the digital asset.

Although Schiff realized that he was mistaken about Bitcoin never reaching $50,000, he remains a Bitcoin skeptic. The gold bull named Bitcoin the giant bubble for all.
Schiff is not the only one who suspects cryptocurrencies, as the volatility encompassing digital assets has driven away more than one Wall Street investor.
