BREAKING: Economist and gold bull Peter Schiff has issued a dire warning as the U.S. national debt officially surges toward $38.5 trillion, expanding at an alarming pace of $3 trillion per year. $BTC

Schiff asserts that the explosive rally in gold—which has shattered over 45 all-time highs in 2025 and surpassed the $4,000 per ounce milestone—is the ultimate "canary in the coal mine," signaling an impending sovereign debt and dollar crisis. He argues that global central banks are aggressively divesting from U.S. Treasuries in favor of gold reserves, marking what he describes as the beginning of a rapid "de-dollarization" process. $ETH

Analysts suggest that with annual interest costs hitting record highs, Schiff’s thesis of a "sovereign credit crisis" is gaining traction as investors seek protection against currency depreciation and potential hyperinflation. Despite Schiff's traditional skepticism of digital assets, many in the market view this macro instability as the primary long-term fuel for both precious metals and decentralized stores of value. $XRP
