Galaxy Digital CEO Mike Novogratz has challenged Euro Pacific Capital CEO Peter Schiff to put his money where his uber-bearish mouth is.

Novogratz has offered the most prolific Bitcoin doom prophet a $1 million wager over the latter’s oft-repeated prediction that the cryptocurrency market is going to crash and burn.

The crypto mogul is betting that Bitcoin will be trading above the $35,000 level a year from now. If he’s wrong, he will donate $1 million to the charity of his choice. Schiff is yet to respond to the audacious offer.

As reported by U.Today, Novogratz predicted that the price of Bitcoin would find a bottom near the $38,000 support level, but he then cautioned investors that the market would remain under pressure due to rising bond yields.   

The bellwether cryptocurrency crashed to $34,000, the lowest price point since late July amid a relentless sell-off.

Last February, Novogratz predicted that the top cryptocurrency would surpass the $100,000 mark in 2021, but Bitcoin peaked at $69,000 in early November before making a bearish turn.

Out-of-control inflation prompted the U.S. Federal Reserve to adopt a hawkish stance, which is believed to be the main reason why bears are in the driver’s seat right now.

Bears are coming out of hibernation

Finally feeling vindicated, Schiff has been tweeting non-stop about Bitcoin and the broader cryptocurrency market as of recently. He’s not the only permabear who’s gloating over the cryptocurrency crash.

“Black Swan” author Nassim Taleb recently tweeted that a falling price actually makes Bitcoin more expensive and less desirable.
 

NYU economist Nouriel Roubini recently tweeted that El Salvador is now “effectively bankrupt” because of his Bitcoin bet.
