“Safe and old or bold and new, investors choose what they believe will grow.”
Bitcoin has come out as the obvious victor of a recent social media poll shared by well-known gold supporter and Bitcoin sceptic Peter Schiff.
The survey posed the simple question, “If you were given $100,000 to invest in Bitcoin, gold, or silver and hold it until 2028, which would you choose?”
The outcomes were remarkable. Approximately 62% of the more than 29,000 votes were cast for Bitcoin, compared to 21% for gold and 17% for silver.
Grant Cardone, a real estate investor, first conducted the survey, which Schiff later reposted, probably to draw attention to what he perceives to be speculative interest in Bitcoin.
The survey indicates a high level of investor confidence in Bitcoin, despite Schiff’s long-standing disapproval of cryptocurrencies. This is particularly noteworthy since, in December 2025, worries over inflation and the state of the world economy caused gold and silver to hit new all-time highs.
Nevertheless, the majority of participants continued to believe that Bitcoin was the best long-term investment.
Bitcoin believers refer to it as “digital gold”, citing its small supply, expanding use, and growing institutional interest.
In comparison to conventional precious metals, many people think Bitcoin has greater growth potential, particularly during a multi-year holding period like 2028.
However, Schiff and other proponents of gold continue to contend that silver and gold have a long history as safe-haven investments and have actual worth.
Schiff’s decision to reshare the survey might be an indication of his worries about what he considers to be dangerous market behaviour.
