Bitcoin dropped to around $61,500 in recent days, its weakest level in roughly four months, and Peter Schiff wasted no time connecting that slide to a broader argument he has been making about stablecoins.

Schiff, the economist and longtime Bitcoin critic, says the numbers point to an inevitable outcome. “The market cap of Tether will soon surpass the market cap of Ethereum,” Schiff wrote on X. “It will eventually surpass the market cap of Bitcoin, too. The only question is how long it will take.” USDT has become a dominant tool for moving money across crypto markets, and its reach now extends into payments, remittances, and digital dollar transfers — a trend he says supports his case.

CryptoQuant CEO Ki Young Ju says Bitcoin’s current distribution phase may be less a sign of structural weakness than a major transfer of supply from old market participants to US financial institutions, ETFs and new long-term holders. In a series of posts on X, Ki argued that selling by Bitcoin OGs and long-time miners is part of a broad “change of hands” rather than evidence that the asset has exhausted its cycle. The key question, in his view, is not only how much supply is being sold, but who is ultimately absorbing it. “I believe that the selling by Bitcoin OGs and long-time miners is part of a major shift in hands, transferring to US traditional financial institutions, investors, and ETFs,” Ki wrote. “So, I disagree with the claim that Bitcoin won’t do well anymore once the shift is complete and there’s no more liquidity coming in.” Bitcoin’s Ownership Base Is Changing Ki’s thesis centers on the composition of Bitcoin holders.
