If you talk to a gold bug like Peter Schiff, he will tell you that gold is the only store of value in his view and that #Bitcoin has no intrinsic value. And he will further try to convince you that because gold has utility in dentistry and jewelry it’s a store of value. This post is directed to these people and their fallacies.

Peter Schiff has 5% of his portfolio in gold, he's certainly not a gold bug, regardless of what he pretends on TV. He's also done more to spread bitcoin awareness than almost anyone else.
Peter Schiff is a method actor.
That’s correct, he’s got a lot more exposure to gold mining equities.
Be it Method acting or strong conviction, yesterday’s interview with Schiff and Mallers was an embarrassment for good old Pete:

It's certainly not legitimate conviction. Peter is extremely smart and well educated, there is no way he actually believes that horseshit he trumpets.
also consider how much attention he would get just sitting around talking about gold. None. By being bitcoin's biggest "hater" his social media profile is amplified dramatically.
He's 100% method acting. And he's doing all Bitcoiners a great service by promoting such retarded arguments and talking about Bitcoin every chance he gets.
He's a gem.
Yes I agree, he’s doing us a tremendous favor.
