Peter Schiff used his podcast this week to argue that BTC holders are ignoring what Strategy\u2019s decision to sell some of its stack means for the asset.<\/p>\n

According to him, the company built by Michael Saylor was the real floor under Bitcoin\u2019s price, and that floor is now gone.<\/p>\n

Schiff Says Strategy\u2019s Selling Exposes the Real Backbone of Crypto<\/h2>\n

In the hour-long episode aired on YouTube on July 9 and covering everything from the reported collapse of the Iran peace deal to the DOGE shutdown, Schiff claimed<\/a> that Bitcoin supporters were being willfully blind to Strategy\u2019s changing role in the market.\u00a0According to him, the firm\u2019s buying had become a major source of demand that helped support BTC\u2019s price.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cBitcoiners are delusional right now, or in denial about what\u2019s happening with Strategy,\u201d he said. \u201cThey do not understand how important Strategy has been to Bitcoin, to the whole ecosystem, the whole industry, because it has provided all of that buying that not only put a floor beneath Bitcoin and kept it going up, but legitimized it in the eyes of the financial community.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

However, that dynamic, in Schiff\u2019s opinion, has now changed after the company recently sold<\/a> 3,588 BTC for some $216 million instead of adding to its holdings.\u00a0Furthermore, the economist noted that Strategy disposed of the stash at an average price of about $60,000 after buying them for roughly $75,000, meaning it had booked a loss of around $15,000 on each of them.<\/p>\n

The issue, though, isn\u2019t even the \u201chuge loss,\u201d as Schiff put it, that Saylor suffered from the sale, but rather the mental effect that selling will have on the community.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cIt\u2019s not just that he\u2019s not buying or that he\u2019s selling; it\u2019s the psychology,\u201d he insisted.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The crypto critic then suggested that Saylor will sell a lot more of Strategy\u2019s Bitcoin, possibly all of it at some point, to \u201clower his exposure to raise his cash so he can keep on paying the dividends.\u201d<\/p>\n

He also flagged the company\u2019s preferred shares, which were trading around $86 despite a dividend hike to 12%, as a sign that investors no longer had confidence in BTC.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cThe game is over, and the market is telling you that the confidence is not there anymore,\u201d Schiff told listeners. \u201cAll the hype didn\u2019t pan out, or whatever had panned out has already panned, and now it\u2019s just about the last man out.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Other Analysts Are Reading the Same Sale Very Differently<\/h2>\n

Not everyone sees Strategy\u2019s decision to sell as bearish. For example, Zach Pandl, Grayscale\u2019s head of research, recently argued<\/a> that the sale could restore confidence in the firm\u2019s financing structure instead of damaging BTC\u2019s long-term outlook.<\/p>\n

He noted that Strategy still owned $53 billion in Bitcoin against a $7 billion debt, while its cash reserves have increased to around $2.55 billion, which is enough to cover 17 months of dividend payments.<\/p>\n

Another industry observer, HashKey Group Senior Researcher Tim Sun, made a similar point, telling<\/a> \u52a0\u5bc6\u571f\u8c46<\/em> that a slower Strategy could actually help Bitcoin build a healthier price floor based on organic demand instead of financing-driven buying.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Bitwise\u2019s Matt Hougan expects<\/a> Strategy to matter less as a buyer in the next cycle, with institutions like Morgan Stanley and Wells Fargo potentially taking over as the OG cryptocurrency\u2019s main source of demand.<\/p>\n
