要實現這一點,Bitcoin的總價值必須大幅增加。目前,Bitcoin價格約爲 10 萬美元。因此,100 萬個Bitcoin按每個Bitcoin10 萬美元計算,總價值爲 1000 億美元,不足以償還美國約 36.25 萬億美元的國債。
Schiff 表示這是不可能的,因爲Bitcoin價值必須增加 20,000% 以上,這是不現實的。
即使Bitcoin價值增加,美國債務也會不斷增長。美國政府每年都會借錢,因此債務預計將繼續上升。這使得Bitcoin還清債務的想法更加難以相信。
另外,到那時,國家債務將遠遠超過 36.25 萬億美元,需要更高的Bitcoin價格才能償還。

Peter Schiff has long criticized Bitcoin, saying it lacks value and won’t replace traditional money or assets like gold. He points out Bitcoin’s extreme price swings, making it unreliable for saving or buying everyday things. He believes most Bitcoin buyers are speculating, not using it as money.
Schiff also doubts Bitcoin will ever be widely adopted. While its price has grown, Bitcoin still needs to be used as a global currency. Only some countries have accepted it as official money, and most governments resist replacing their currencies with Bitcoin. Schiff believes Bitcoin will always remain the world’s main currency.
Some Bitcoin supporters think the cryptocurrency will keep increasing in value as more people adopt it. They believe it could even reach $1 million per coin, making it an alternative to traditional money.
However, Schiff sees the idea of Bitcoin paying off the U.S. national debt as highly unlikely. The market cap required for such a scenario is too large, and the growing national debt makes it even less possible.
As Peter Schiff says, “Bitcoin is a speculative asset, and its value is driven by hope, not real demand.”
While Bitcoin might continue to grow for some, Schiff believes that paying off the U.S. national debt is just an unrealistic dream.
