Good day everyone,
I hope you are all having a good day, welcome to CryptoGod-1's blog on all things crypto. In this post I will be looking at the recent comments from Peter Schiff regarding 2025 potentially spelling the end of Bitcoin.
Peter Schiff Thinks 2025 is End of Bitcoin
The economist and gold advocate Peter Schiff has once again voiced his opinions on Bitcoin and its viability, as he declared on the 10th of April that “the financial crisis of 2025 will kill” the cryptocurrency he says was born in the 2008 crash. He knocked down the crypto as he noted that global markets are suffering from “Black Monday” losses and Donald Trump’s tariff policy reversals which is driving gold to fresh highs while digital assets and equities tumble.
Back in 2008 a breakdown within the banking system and the housing market fuelled one of the worst recessions the globe has experienced in modern times. However, the turmoil of 2025 has been driven largely by policy choices, particularly the imposition of sweeping tariffs. Back on the first of April Trump announced a broad tariff hike affecting more than 75 countries, with rates ranging from 11% to 50% depending on the product and origin.
Schiff took to X to make his declaration and he noted that further disruption in the markets in likely following the April 7 equity crash—dubbed “Black Monday”—and the U.S. President’s surprise 90‑day tariff pause. Bitcoin is down roughly 27% since its highs in January and he openly criticised the newly formed U.S. Strategic Bitcoin Reserve. It has lost more than 12 per cent since its March 6 launch and he has argued those holdings for gold would have yielded a 2 per cent gain.

Schiff has always been known as a vocal critic of Bitcoin and has previously mocked Michael Saylor’s MicroStrategy bets. He also noted that he expects Ethereum to break below the $1,000 mark soon as it fell 20 per cent overnight below $1,500. Schiff also noted that the fall in the dollar, from 2.3 per cent versus the euro and yen, and 3.9 per cent against the Swiss franc, is also a cause of concern and questioned whether the U.S. is “winning the trade war” as gold stocks climbed 5 per cent.
Fears are growing with trade tensions increasing and Schiff’s gold‑over‑crypto stance is being reflected in the wider clash between traditional safe havens and digital assets. His comments are added fuel to the ongoing debate over Bitcoin’s role in an uncertain economic landscape and he is pushing the perceived security of gold against the promise of decentralised finance. United States stock indices have fallen by more than $12 trillion in value across a few trading sessions and bond markets are showing signs of strain.
