- Peter Schiff predicts Saylor will sell Bitcoin at lower prices again — no timeline specified
- Bitcoin is trading at $86,105 (+0.28% 24h) with a $1.729T market cap at time of writing
- Strategy holds over 500,000 BTC on its balance sheet with no disclosed reduction
Peter Schiff has issued a fresh warning against Michael Saylor’s Bitcoin strategy, predicting publicly that it won’t be long before Saylor is forced to sell Bitcoin at lower prices — a repeat of what Schiff has argued is an inevitable outcome of leveraged BTC accumulation.
The statement was flagged by WatcherGuru on September 22, 2026. Schiff — a longtime Bitcoin critic and gold advocate — did not specify a price target or timeline but characterized the outcome as a near-term certainty.
At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading at approximately $86,105, up 0.28% in the past 24 hours, with a market capitalization of $1.729 trillion and 24-hour trading volume of $45.95 billion.
Schiff’s commentary is consistent with his long-standing position that Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) — the publicly traded company Saylor chairs, which holds over 500,000 BTC on its balance sheet — is structurally exposed to a downward price spiral. His core argument has historically centered on the risk of margin calls or debt obligations forcing liquidation during a prolonged Bitcoin downturn.
Saylor has not publicly responded to this specific statement. Strategy continues to hold its Bitcoin position without any disclosed reduction as of this writing.
This is not the first time Bitcoin has weathered bearish commentary from Schiff during a period of relative price stability. For broader market context, see our earlier coverage on how Bitcoin fell below $77,000 during its most recent significant correction, and how the crypto market cap surged $160B in the subsequent recovery.
