It looks like Bitcoin's future is heading down a less optimistic path - at least according to its longtime critic&nbsp;<a href="https://x.com/PeterSchiff/status/1835631752611578063?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1835631752611578063%7Ctwgr%5E0811adce21ac9cc45852c8dd994874bb208df434%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fpublish.twitter.com%2F%3Furl%3Dhttps%3A%2F%2Ftwitter.com%2FPeterSchiff%2Fstatus%2F1835631752611578063" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Peter Schiff</a>, as he recently outlined a scenario that could push the major cryptocurrency down to the $15,000-$20,000 range.
In a recent X post, Schiff highlighted what he sees as a concerning chart pattern, describing it as a "triple top," a formation that he believes signals a potential decline. This suggests that, "at minimum," it may fall to the upward trend line at around $42,000 may and not even hold for long there. Schiff thinks it is more likely that Bitcoin will retest the longer-term support levels at around $20,000.
In his warning, the cryptocurrency critic also issued a grim counterpoint to the optimistic perspective of&nbsp;<a href="https://u.today/michael-saylors-microstrategy-now-owns-117-of-all-bitcoin-details" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Michael Saylor</a>, as Schiff's comment signals a direct challenge to Saylor's bullish stance, cautioning him to "look out below."
Having invested heavily in&nbsp;<a href="https://u.today/rich-dad-poor-dad-author-kiyosaki-says-buy-bitcoin-or-be-late-in-life-loser" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitcoin</a> on behalf of his company, Saylor has been a key figure pushing the narrative of Bitcoin as a long-term store of value.
<blockquote>
 This looks like a triple top to me. The chart is even worse if you price <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Bitcoin?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">#Bitcoin</a> in <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/gold?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">#gold</a>. At a minimum, Bitcoin is headed to the upward trend line at about $42K, but I doubt it will hold. A retest of longer-term support at $15K–$20K is more likely. Look out below. <a href="https://twitter.com/saylor?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">@saylor</a> <a href="https://t.co/d83NRh4Rx5" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">pic.twitter.com/d83NRh4Rx5</a>— Peter Schiff (@PeterSchiff) <a href="https://twitter.com/PeterSchiff/status/1835631752611578063?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">September 16, 2024</a>

<h2 id="1-million-for-bitcoin-schiff-s-vision">$1 million for Bitcoin: Schiff's vision</h2>
What is more interesting is Schiff's view that Bitcoin could one day reach $1 million, a target championed by some of the cryptocurrency's most vocal supporters. When asked by a follower to celebrate in Puerto Rico if&nbsp;<a href="https://u.today/bitcoin-eyes-436-million-explosive-etf-inflows-last-week" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">BTC</a> hit that mark, Schiff &nbsp;responded that such an event would only be possible if a drink there also cost $1 million.&nbsp;
This response, though lighthearted, further reflects Schiff's deep skepticism of such radical projections, reinforcing his belief that these extreme price forecasts rest on highly unlikely conditions.
