Peter Schiff names “the real reason” for the recent Bitcoin rally

Vocal Bitcoin hater, head of the Euro Pacific Capital, Peter Schiff believes he knows the exact reason why Bitcoin reached the $65,000 all-time high in April.

In his usual manner, he has put it down to the major Bitcoiners promoting the flagship crypto via their Twitter handles – Elon Musk, Michael Saylor (head of MicroStrategy business software maker), Digital Currency Group CEO Barry Silbert and others too.

It is them, “all other Bitcoin elites and their friends in the financial media” that have been pumping Bitcoin in the past half-a-year and driving both institutional and retail investors to buy BTC.

Consider where the price of #Bitcoin would be today if @elonmusk, @michael_saylor, @BarrySilbert, and all the other Bitcoin elites and their friends in the financial media hadn’t spent the last six months convincing retail and institutional investors to buy their worthless tokens.

He has also recalled Grayscale’s Bitcoin adverts on CNBC. In his previous tweets Schiff referred to Grayscale and Barry Silbert (his Digital Currency Group is its parent company) as CNBC’s major advertisers.

Schiff’s account finally verified by Twitter

As reported by U.Today earlier, on Friday last week, Schiff senior finally received the blue verification tick from Twitter for his account.

How, he seems to feel much more confident in criticizing Bitcoin and everyone that shares their support for the king crypto on Twitter. Schiff's son Spencer, a Bitcoiner, has not been verified yet.
