In a post on X, Peter Schiff stated that if Bitcoin’s price dips below $50,000, it is “highly likely” to keep falling until it hits $20,000.

  • Bitcoin’s drop to $20,000 would represent an 85% fall from its October peak of over $126,000, Schiff said in a post on X.
  • He dismissed concerns asking for a technical analysis, calling the volatility of Bitcoin’s price “a feature, not a bug.”
  • Bernstein and Standard Chartered continue to project Bitcoin could reach $150,000 by year-end.

Long-time crypto critic and gold bull Peter Schiff brought back his call to “sell Bitcoin” on Thursday, warning that if the cryptocurrency falls to $50,000, there may be a deeper correction ahead.

“If Bitcoin breaks $50K, which looks likely, it seems highly likely it will at least test $20K,” he wrote in a post on X. “That would be an 84% drop from its ATH.” When asked if he had any technical analysis to support his hypothesis, Schiff simply replied, “Volatility is a feature, not a bug,” addressing the troughs and peaks of the crypto market.
