Last night at Dubai Blockchain Week, a heated showdown took place.



CZ and "Gold Father" Peter Schiff faced off on the main stage of a leading exchange, debating a provocative topic: Between Bitcoin and gold, which is more valuable?

Schiff didn't hold back—his stance was straightforward: people buy Bitcoin because they want to get rich overnight; to put it bluntly, it's pure speculation.

That statement must have stirred up the audience. On one side are the believers in "digital gold," and on the other are the old-school advocates of physical assets. This debate is destined to have no definitive answer.

Schiff is just being stubborn—he can't hoard gold anymore, and he can't stand seeing BTC take off. If we're talking about speculation, gold isn't any better; it's just a different form. CZ really needs to push back this time and not let this kind of outdated rhetoric set the tone. This debate is pointless; they went their separate ways long ago, and no one can convince the other. Get rich overnight? Please, the real believers are the ones who have held for over ten years.

Ha, Schiff is still stubbornly clinging to gold, really obstinate. Get rich overnight? Bro, you got it backwards, it’s about bottom-fishing your way to the top. Bitcoin is Bitcoin, gold is gold, why bother comparing which is better? These debates are just after-dinner entertainment; true believers have already hodled. For CZ to be able to chat and laugh with this guy on the same stage, he must have a huge mindset. Honestly, I’ve been hearing Schiff’s arguments for ten years. Time to get some Bitcoin, man. That’s why I always just turn off the comments section and focus on my hodl. Let the godfather of gold watch slowly, history will speak for itself.

Haha, Schiff is here again. This guy really is a thorn in Bitcoin’s side, always popping up to say something every time. CZ went straight up to confront him—I bet things got a bit tense.

Ha, Schiff is at it again. This guy really is the anti-spokesperson for Bitcoin... CZ has to shut him down this time, gold has been depreciating for so many years and he's still holding on. Buy Bitcoin just to get rich quick? Come on, I believe in the technology, okay? Not everyone is just following the hype. This debate is endless, holding both assets is probably the best way. Schiff's theory might have worked ten years ago, but now it's really time to update his thinking.
