Famous gold bug and Bitcoin naysayer Peter Schiff<\/a> has provided comment about what he plans to do with the cache of Bitcoin recently donated to him by the Bitcoin Twitter<\/a> community. The staunch anti-Bitcoiner said that just because he has been gifted some Bitcoin does not mean that he is suddenly a convert to crypto and that he doesn’t really care what happens to the funds.<\/p>\n Schiff received the donations after he revealed that he had his own Bitcoin wallet. The gold investor subsequently shared a Bitcoin public key at the request of Anthony Pompliano of Morgan Creek Capital.<\/p>\n Speaking with Kitco News<\/a> earlier today, Schiff quipped that the donations he received had already lost value and said that had he exchanged them for gold, the dollar value would have gone up. He also claimed that he did not care what happens to the “insignificant amount” of money he received.<\/p>\n Schiff received the donations earlier this month when vocal Bitcoin advocate Anthony Pompliano revealed that the gold bug actually owned some Bitcoin. Pompliano requested that Schiff post his public key so that he could match the $100 worth of Bitcoin the gold bug had been previously gifted from a friend.<\/p>\n The vocal Bitcoin hater @PeterSchiff<\/a> recently admitted that he actually does own some Bitcoin.<\/p>\n Never listen to what they say, always watch what they do with their money!<\/p>\n — Pomp \ud83c\udf2a (@APompliano) July 5, 2019<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\nSchiff: Bitcoin is Still “Over-Hyped Digital Nothing”<\/h2>\n
