Gold advocate and renowned economist Peter Schiff has also shocked the crypto community following his unveiling as one of the top speakers at the Bitcoin 2025 conference. Now, Schiff has revealed that he doesn’t intend to hold back and will continue his criticism of the flagship crypto once he comes on stage at the conference.
Peter Schiff To Speak Against BTC At The Bitcoin Conference
In an X post, the economist indicated that he has no plans to refrain from criticizing BTC even at the Bitcoin 2025 conference. This came following a follower’s question on whether he would speak out against the flagship crypto at the conference, to which he replied, “Why else would I be going”
As CoinGape reported, Schiff, a well-known Bitcoin critic, will be one of the speakers at the Bitcoin 2025 conference. The economist also confirmed this in his post, in which he revealed he was travelling to Las Vegas, where “ironically,” he will likely be the speaker who best understands BTC.
In response to another comment on his post, confirming that he will be speaking at the conference, Peter Schiff declared that he is still not a believer. However, market expert Anthony Pompliano believes his constant criticism of Bitcoin is just an act. In response to Schiff’s post, Pompliano described the economist as ‘Peter I secretly love Bitcoin Schiff.’
Community members have spoken against Schiff’s upcoming appearance, stating that it takes away the event’s credibility, considering that the gold advocate is very vocal against BTC. However, the Bitcoin critic believes his presence is important at the event. He responded to a community member, stating,
What’s the point of going to a conference if every speakers just tells you want you already think you know? They might as well just throw a massive party.
Eric Trump Comments On The Upcoming Event
In an X post, Eric Trump, the son of US President Donald Trump, stated that he is looking forward to the Bitcoin 2025 conference. Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson responded to post, stating “see you there,” confirming that he will also be at the event.
Like Peter Schiff, Trump will also be a speaker at the event. The president’s son already made appearances at the Token 2049 and Consensus 2025 crypto conferences earlier this month. At Consensus, he stated that he aims to dominate Bitcoin mining as Michael Saylor’s Strategy leads the accumulation game.
Alongside Peter Schiff and Eric Trump, Vice President JD Vance, Ross Ulbricht, Donald Trump Jr., Michael Saylor, and pro-Bitcoin Senator Cynthia Lummis will speak at the Bitcoin conference.
