Economist Says Bitcoin Is A Threat, But The Target Is Not Who You Think

Economist Peter Schiff criticizes Bitcoin, claiming it is a threat not to the global financial system but to investors who buy it. He argues Bitcoin lacks intrinsic value, comparing it to a Ponzi scheme, and advocates for gold and silver as superior inflation hedges. In response, crypto commentator Jeff Swanson contends that continued criticism from gold proponents signals Bitcoin's relevance and potential challenge to gold's monetary role. While Schiff predicts Bitcoin could fall to $10,000, Swanson acknowledges gold's persistence but expects it to gradually lose ground to Bitcoin over time.

Hoskinson Blasts Ripple CEO Garlinghouse In Fresh Public Rant

Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson criticized Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse in a video on January 18, 2026, for supporting the US Clarity Act, which Hoskinson argues would expand the SEC's authority and harm the crypto industry. He claimed the bill, with 137 amendments, would treat all new projects as securities by default, forcing them to seek regulatory relief. Hoskinson called this worse than the current regulatory uncertainty, accusing Garlinghouse and others of compromising too easily. He warned that passing a flawed bill would make meaningful change nearly impossible, citing the long-standing Securities Exchange Act of 1933. Hoskinson also expressed concerns about the industry moving toward custodial wallets, KYC, and reversible transactions, which he believes betray crypto's original revolutionary ethos. At the time of reporting, XRP was trading at $1.95.

Aevo Co-founder's Long Post Criticizes the Industry: I Wasted 8 Years of My Life in Crypto

In a widely circulated article, Aevo co-founder and CTO Ken Chan reflects on his eight years in the crypto industry with deep disillusionment, describing it as a "waste" of his life. Initially drawn by libertarian ideals and the vision of decentralized financial systems like Bitcoin enabling private, borderless wealth, Chan now believes the space has devolved into the "largest casino in human history"—a massive, speculative gambling arena masked as innovation. He argues that despite idealistic rhetoric, the industry's incentives have prioritized speculation over substantive progress. New Layer 1 chains, DEXs, and meme platforms often serve as zero-sum gambling mechanisms rather than tools for genuine financial improvement. Chan admits to profiting from the system but expresses disgust at his role in fostering an ecosystem where high-market-cap tokens with no real users thrive, contradicting sustainable economic principles. He warns that the normalization of financial nihilism and get-rich-quick mentalities poses long-term risks to social mobility and value creation. While he still believes in crypto’s original vision, Chan concludes that the industry has lost its way, and he now prioritizes being "right" over chasing profits.
