Peter Schiff Says Bitcoin Speculators Expect A Rally But ‘Hard To Believe The Market Will Deliver’ After Fake News Pump: ‘Better To Sell Today’
From Nasdaq, Inc.:
Economist Peter Schiff is warning that the anticipated Bitcoin ETF approval rally may not meet expectations. Following a false announcement of Bitcoin ETF approval by a compromised Twitter account, Bitcoin spiked near $48K then dropped to $45K. Schiff cautioned, “It’s hard to believe the market will deliver.” The actual approval is expected tomorrow.
Bitcoin traded 2.03% lower at $45,779.97 and fell 4.4% from the Tuesday intraday high of 47,893.70. Data from Coinglass indicated that over 24 hours $46.70 million worth of Bitcoin longs were liquidated.
The anticipated approval of Bitcoin ETFs by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has sparked speculation in the market. Schiff previously predicted a Bitcoin crash before the ETF launch, cautioning that those who bought the rumor won’t profit if they wait for the launch to sell their Bitcoin holdings.
Schiff’s warning comes after a compromised SEC tweet falsely announced the approval of Bitcoin ETFs, causing market mayhem. This recent incident adds to the already high level of speculation in the market.
