Peter Schiff Claims Bitcoin Crash Is Still Yet To Come, As Tether Invests $150M In Gold

Gold advocate and longtime Bitcoin critic Peter Schiff predicts a deeper Bitcoin price crash is still imminent, despite the cryptocurrency already falling nearly 50% from its peak. Schiff argues that the current decline is orderly and not yet a true crash, which he believes will involve a sudden 10-20% drop in a short timeframe. He claims the "biggest financial mania in history is likely over" and criticizes mainstream financial institutions for embracing Bitcoin. Meanwhile, stablecoin issuer Tether is expanding into precious metals, investing $150 million in Gold.com and acquiring a 12% stake. The partnership aims to integrate Tether’s gold-backed digital asset XAU₮ and explore options for buying physical gold using Tether’s stablecoins. This move comes as gold prices surge above $5,000 per ounce. Schiff continues to argue that investors are shifting from Bitcoin to "real money" like gold, noting that Bitcoin’s strongest performance occurred before institutional adoption.

Japan’s gold reserves jumped 60% in 2025 – Is that good or bad for Bitcoin?

The 2025 market cycle highlighted a significant divergence between gold and Bitcoin, with gold (XAU) rising 12% in Q4 while Bitcoin (BTC) fell 23%. Over 12 months, gold surged 65% compared to BTC’s 6.3% decline, resetting the BTC/XAU ratio to pre-election levels. This shift was driven by macro uncertainty, including Trump’s tariff threats, which boosted traditional safe-haven assets like gold. Japan’s economic struggles, including high debt and inflation, led its gold reserves to jump 60% YoY to $120 billion, doubling since 2022. This reinforced gold’s safe-haven appeal and created rotational pressure on Bitcoin. With the Bank of Japan (BOJ) considering a rate hike, further capital flow from BTC to gold appears likely, keeping the focus on macro dynamics and safe-haven demand.
