Schiff Makes Nonsensical Bitcoin Comparison to Pot Stocks
  •  Peter Schiff’s latest attempt to insult the leading cryptocurrency was done by comparing Bitcoin to the current state of pot stocks.
  • Schiff thinks that the rally in pot stocks was triggered through speculators, who were also buying into the crypto market.

Peter Schiff, one of the biggest naysayers of cryptocurrency, doesn’t like bitcoin (duh). 

Typically, whenever the price of the flagship cryptocurrency takes a hit, his face lights up, just as his Twitter does after he sends out a less than favourable tweet on BTC and triggers most people on crypto Twitter. 

His latest attempt to insult the leading cryptocurrency was done by comparing Bitcoin to the current state of pot stocks.

At the end of last week, Schiff said:

The CEO of Euro Pacific Capital claims that in the foreseeable future, bitcoin will eventually follow suit of pot stocks. 

Schiff thinks that the rally in pot stocks we saw earlier in 2019 was triggered through speculators, who were also buying into the crypto market. In more recent months, the pot stock rally calmed down and basically went bust. 

Codswallop

The main reason for Schiff’s words to be complete rubbish is that both asset classes are not correlated or even related. 

In fact, research proves that “bitcoin’s direction does not depend on stock market action.”

It will be interesting to see how this situation plays out. For more news on this and other crypto updates, keep it with CryptoDaily!
