According to Odaily Odaily, economist and longtime Bitcoin critic Peter Schiff wrote on the X platform that despite MSTR and several Bitcoin reserve companies continuing to promote the narrative and purchase large amounts of Bitcoin during 2025, Bitcoin is still down about 4% year-to-date with only one month left in the year.
He stated that, in stark contrast, gold and silver have risen by approximately 60% and 95% respectively this year, despite the lack of speculation and concentrated institutional buying.
Schiff stated that this divergence in trends "is likely to continue into December and 2026."
