Inside the debate over bitcoin vs gold

This Fox Business segment features a debate between Anthony Pompliano and Peter Schiff over Bitcoin versus gold. Pompliano argues Bitcoin is the better long-term asset, citing its higher historical compound growth and its volatility as a source of upside, while Schiff calls Bitcoin a bubble, “digital nothing,” and says gold remains a real, scarce hard asset. The discussion also touches on Bitcoin’s drawdowns, recent underperformance versus gold, the role of government and politics in crypto adoption, and MicroStrategy’s Bitcoin accumulation strategy. Schiff warns that large crypto inflows may be enabling early holders to exit and says stocks are expensive at current valuations. The key market takeaway is the ongoing split in investor sentiment: Bitcoin remains favored by growth-oriented, long-horizon investors, while gold is still viewed as a more established safe haven and store of value.
