‘I Guess I’ll Have to Hodl It’ — Peter Schiff Admits to Having Bitcoin
Veteran gold bug and bitcoin (BTC) skeptic Peter Schiff has accepted delivery of $1,350 worth of the cryptocurrency after the industry sent him donations on July 4.
Schiff, who is well known for warning investors not to trust bitcoin as a replacement for gold, triggered the goodwill gestures after becoming the topic of a Twitter debate with Morgan Creek Digital co-founder, Anthony Pompliano.
Pompliano (also known as Pomp), highlighted the fact that Schiff does in fact own some BTC despite his negative comments.
Schiff responded that the BTC was a token amount given as a gift - just $100 - after which Pompliano requested his BTC address in order to double it.
