Crypto News– Gold prices soared to unprecedented heights on Monday, seizing the attention of investors globally. Amid this surge, Peter Schiff, a steadfast advocate for gold, took aim at Mark Cuban and Michael Saylor for their preference for Bitcoin over the traditional safe haven of gold.

On Monday, gold surged by $33, reaching a historic high of $2,110 per troy ounce, according to data from SPDR Gold Trust GLD. Schiff highlighted the media’s inclination towards Bitcoin over gold, particularly following Cuban’s dismissal of gold as an investment.

Mark Cuban, a prominent figure in the investment community, has been vocal about his favoritism towards Bitcoin. His stance, especially on a day when gold’s value peaked, drew sharp criticism from Schiff.

“Despite gold’s $33 increase today, reaching its highest price ever during US trading hours, the only mention I heard of gold on CNBC was when Mark Cuban stated he wasn’t buying any. He proudly proclaimed that he ‘chooses Bitcoin over gold every day.’ This shark is swimming in the wrong tank,” remarked Peter Schiff.

Furthermore, Cuban’s investment strategy extends beyond Bitcoin. His publicly tracked portfolio on Arkham includes a significant stake in various altcoins, notably the Artificial Liquid Intelligence (ALI) token, indicating his belief in the broader potential of blockchain technologies beyond Bitcoin alone.

Schiff’s criticism also targeted Michael Saylor and his company, MicroStrategy, renowned for its aggressive accumulation of Bitcoin. Schiff cautioned against the speculative nature of leveraging to acquire Bitcoin, as MicroStrategy planned to issue $600 million in convertible senior notes. He argued that such strategies could lead to substantial losses, potentially pushing the company towards bankruptcy.

Despite Schiff’s warnings, Bitcoin’s performance has been impressive. The cryptocurrency briefly reached a new all-time high, signaling robust institutional interest and optimism about its future, particularly with the anticipated Bitcoin halving event.
