Peter Schiff and Peter McCormack Debate Bitcoin vs Gold

Peter Schiff and Peter McCormack held a public Bitcoin-versus-gold debate released in early December, revisiting a long-running argument over scarcity, monetary properties and the role of non-sovereign stores of value.

The event is retained as a recognizable cultural marker of the period. Its value is in reconstructing how Bitcoin and the wider digital-asset phenomenon were being discussed and experienced in 2021, without implying a protocol or legal effect that the event did not have.
