Bitcoin Cynic Peter Schiff Warns BTC Could Drop to $75K, Below Strategy’s Avg. Buy

Economist and persistent Bitcoin critic Peter Schiff has predicted that BTC would slip to about $75,000 at a minimum, lower than Saylor-led Strategy’s average ￰1￱ advocates BTC holders to “sell now and buy back later.” He said in a thread on X that selling now and buying back lower “beats justing riding it all the way down.” Bitcoin just dropped below $109K, down 13% from its high less than two weeks ￰2￱ all the hype and corporate buying, this weakness should be cause for ￰3￱ a minimum, a decline to about $75K is in play, just below $MSTR 's average ￰4￱ now and buy back lower. — Peter Schiff (@PeterSchiff) August 26, 2025 “Given all the hype and corporate buying, this weakness should be cause for concern,” he ￰5￱ fell 3.12% in the past 24 hours to $109,828, underperforming the broader crypto ￰6￱ largest crypto has been down 13% from its high less than two weeks ￰7￱ Could Fall Below MSTR’s Average Cost Michael Saylor’s Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy), the largest Bitcoin treasury firm, has been holding the token since ￰8￱ firm bought 3,081 BTC for $356.9 million at an average cost of $115,829 each on ￰9￱ Saylor’s @Strategy expands its Bitcoin reserves — acquiring 3,081 BTC for $356.9M at ~$115,829 each. $MSTR #Bitcoin ￰0￱ — ￰10￱ (@cryptonews) August 25, 2025 Strategy now holds a total of 632,457 BTC, worth $69.58 billion per Bitcoin Treasuries ￰11￱ to Peter Schiff’s prediction, Bitcoin would soon witness a plunge to as low as $75,000, a mark that BTC hit in April 2025.

“At a minimum, a decline to about $75K is in play, just below $MSTR’s average cost.” Bitcoin is Falling Down – Is $75K Plunge Possible? Though Bitcoin has been tumbling down, Schiff’s prediction seems remote, given other factors driving up the price, ￰12￱ recent flash crash is attributed to a massive whale dump that sparked major liquidations. A whale sold 24,000 BTC in a batch of transactions, proving calamitous for Ether that recently hit an all-time high . Further, Fed Chair Powell’s Jackson Hole speech emphasized labor market risks, which initially fueled a 4% BTC bounce.

However, fading momentum reversed gains. Meanwhile, institutional accumulation continues with the recent Metaplanet’s 103 BTC purchase. Further, ￰13￱ Bitcoin ETFs saw massive inflows ($231M) on August 14. Bitcoin’s trajectory hinges on whether ETF inflows outpace whale selloffs and if macro liquidity aligns with tech innovation.
