Peter Schiff, a gold advocate and bitcoin critic, argued MicroStrategy's bitcoin strategy encourages "excessive speculation." He predicted the company's common stock will "eventually be worthless." Schiff believes the firm's capital structure is unsustainable. He stated it poses a significant risk to common shareholders.
MicroStrategy Executive Chairman Michael Saylor responded. He highlighted an indicator of strength and growing institutional acceptance. Saylor noted the company's preferred stock, STRC, became a top holding in three major preferred-stock ETFs. He suggested this indicates broader market confidence in their long-term strategy.
