Bitcoin

<p>As Trump paints Bitcoin as an economic booster, Schiff <strong><a href="https://x.com/PeterSchiff/status/1939044519196098859" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">sees</a></strong>it as a destabilizing force.</p><p>The tension flared after Trump praised <strong><a href="https://coindoo.com/cryptocurrencies/bitcoin/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitcoin’s</a></strong>performance and its potential to reduce pressure on the dollar. But Schiff argues that converting U.S. currency into BTC weakens demand for the greenback, undermining its role in global markets. He also warned that such a shift diverts resources into what he believes is an unproductive asset.</p><p>While the federal government isn’t openly buying Bitcoin with dollars, it is accumulating the asset through seizures and forfeitures. Several U.S. states are following that lead, setting up their own BTC reserves funded through capital reallocation — a trend Schiff finds troubling.</p><div class="read-more pb-3 pt-3 pt-md-2 px-3 my-4 border bg-light"><h5 class="text-uppercase border-bottom mb-3 pb-1 d-none d-md-block">READ MORE:</h5><a class="article row text-decoration-none" href="https://coindoo.com/bitcoin-stays-steady-while-u-s-dollar-plunges-10-in-2025/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"><div class="contentRight col-4"><span class="imgContainer mt-0"><img class="image img-defer" src="https://coindoo.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/IMAGE-2025-05-25-144347.jpg"></span></div><div class="contentLeft col-8"><h4 class="title mb-0">Bitcoin Stays Steady While U.S. Dollar Plunges 10% in 2025</h4></div></a></div><p>Meanwhile, Trump’s media company has reportedly raised over $2 billion to support its own Bitcoin treasury. Critics suggest this move isn’t purely economic but part of a calculated effort to court wealthy crypto donors. Schiff has accused Trump of using the digital asset space to build political alliances, pointing to high-priced private dinners with meme coin holders and allegations of major crypto-linked fundraising.</p><p>Trump’s camp, however, claims the family’s deeper move into crypto was triggered by being cut off from traditional financial institutions, not by opportunism. Yet for Schiff, this shift looks more like a gamble — one that could have serious consequences for the dollar’s future.</p><p>The post <a href="https://coindoo.com/while-trump-bets-on-bitcoin-economist-peter-schiff-calls-it-a-dangerous-game/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">While Trump Bets on Bitcoin, Economist Peter Schiff Calls It a Dangerous Game</a> appeared first on <a href="https://coindoo.com" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Coindoo</a>.</p>
