Peter Schiff cree que la reciente caída de Bitcoin marca el inicio de un nuevo mercado bajista. En respuesta a un tweet del cofundador de Gemini, Tyler Winklevoss, Schiff, que es el CEO de Euro Pacific Capital, atribuyó el aumento de Bitcoin en los últimos dos meses a un efecto de propagación del oro y a una fortuita campaña publicitaria en televisión. In July, Schiff tweeted that he expected bitcoin to fall below its $9,000 resistance point and “crash” while gold would simultaneously surge. Now, as one Twitter follower noted, Schiff is moving the goalpost, saying on Sept. 6 that BTC $10K is now the level to watch.

Schiff responded that the price level could easily be a pre-breakdown consolidation and did not necessarily represent a bottom. After being called out for his failed bitcoin crash prediction on the Twitter thread, Schiff responded that he was only wrong because of a residual effect of gold’s strong performance. According to him, bitcoin also benefited from the effect of a highly visible television ad campaign by crypto asset management and investment firm Grayscale. Over the past two months, gold has performed strongly.

Grayscale Ad and Gold — Bitcoin’s Best Friends? In the second week of August, Grayscale kicked off a marketing blitz with a new television commercial that aired on CNBC, MSNBC, Fox and Fox Business, coinciding with a full-page ad in the Financial Times by Mike Novogratz’s Galaxy Digital. https://twitter.com/Grayscale/status/1292808728253784065 The ad spot resulted in a reported $217 million total investment inflow into Grayscale’s cryptocurrency funds, which CEO Barry Silbert praised as the company’s largest ever weekly fundraising result. While the success of Grayscale’s ad campaign might have had a positive impact on bitcoin’s price, it is less clear what effect gold had on bitcoin. For one thing, analysts remain largely unconvinced that bitcoin and gold have any significant correlation. On the other hand, a report published in August 2019 by Digital Asset Data indicated that over a three-month period, bitcoin had a positive correlation with the price of gold and an inverse correlation with stocks, which indicated a growing use of bitcoin as a store of value against uncertainty.
