Peter Schiff Criticizes GameStop’s Bitcoin Investment as a Risky Move
Peter Schiff, a well-known Bitcoin critic, has sharply criticized GameStop's decision to invest its cash reserves into Bitcoin.
The move led to a significant 20% surge in GameStop’s stock, but Schiff is unconvinced by the strategy. He described the company’s decision as a desperate move, labeling it a “Hail Mary” given the lack of a solid business plan.
On social media, Schiff expressed his doubts, claiming that Bitcoin is even more inflated in value than GameStop stock, which he considers a speculative asset.
While Bitcoin adoption by companies like MicroStrategy has proven profitable, Schiff argues that simply acquiring Bitcoin in hopes of boosting stock prices is a dangerous strategy.

He believes that without a strong business foundation, such decisions could lead to poor long-term outcomes, despite the short-term market reactions.
Schiff’s comments highlight his ongoing skepticism about Bitcoin’s true value and his belief that its volatility makes it an unwise investment for companies that lack clear strategies to support their growth. For Schiff, the push to embrace Bitcoin seems more like a financial gamble than a sustainable business move.
