Schiff is well known for his outspoken criticism of Bitcoin and cryptocurrency in general. A vocal proponent of gold as a store of value, Schiff has often argued that Bitcoin is a speculative bubble and lacks the intrinsic value of traditional assets. His latest comments on the MicroStrategy stock might draw from this standpoint.

$MSTR has got to be the most overvalued stock in the MSCI World Index. When it finally crashes, that's gonna be the real bloodbath!— Peter Schiff (@PeterSchiff) October 22, 2024 MicroStrategy's market value has grown from $1.5 billion to more than $40 billion in just four years. Michael Saylor, cofounder and executive chairman, attributes the company's success to its Bitcoin approach.

MicroStrategy’s net asset value (NAV) is calculated by dividing MSTR's market capitalization by the value of its Bitcoin stack. The NAV premium recently touched a new high of 2.5 times its Bitcoin holdings of around $17 billion. While MicroStrategy’s (MSTR) stock price might be high thanks to its perky valuation compared to the amount of its Bitcoin (BTC) holdings, Schiff's latest warning might tilt more toward his skepticism of Bitcoin and the companies closely tied to its performance. Whether his prediction of a MicroStrategy crash and subsequent "bloodbath" comes to pass remains to be seen.
