Theft? no one did ever stole his bitcoins. He forgot the wallet password and that's why he's ranting on the web again attacking bitcoin because of his negligence. There's no other people to blame with his act but himself, he can't admit the fact that he didn't back up his wallet password and it is his fault.
True. We are the one who is responsible for every actions that we take so what happened to him proves how careless he is. As the owner of his account, he have to be careful in order to avoid those things like what happend to him. And also he is against to the bitcoin. Maybe he didnt truly lost his coins or forgot his password but he just wanted for the people to have a negative impression for the bitcoin and the virtual wallet he is using.

The theft of PETER SCHIFF's bitcoins was probably the explanation for the recent 500 dollar drop in BitCoins price 
Can you imagine how many people are now afraid of losing their BitCoins in the same manner ? I can not think of a worse thing that could happen to the reputation of crypto currency 
Peter Schiff is a millionaire many times over and a very intelligent guy, he did NOT, NOT, NOT forget his password. So the question is, WHO stole all of Peter Schiff's bitcoins, and how did they do it ? The worlds wants to know !!!

I do not strongly believe that what happened to the Bitcoin which Peter Schiff bought and lost can be the reason for its recent minor slip. Why would he be a factor in the market, anyway. Who knows if he is just having some inclination this time to be the Drama King and just pretend that he lost the password just to make the point that owning Bitcoin can be harder than owning the real gold? He has no love for Bitcoin so we should never care if he is stupid enough to have lost his password or if somebody (maybe within his own household, who knows!) got his password illicitly and transfer his Bitcoin somewhere else. I guess since he has a lot of resources under his hand, the best thing to do is to hire a good investigator to find out what really happened. We are not anymore in 2017 where a statement from someone known can be affecting Bitcoin, we are already a lot of miles away from that kind of non-sense thing.

I am backing up my seed here so that I do not lose access to my BitCoins
You definitly gonna loss bitcoin in your wallet though if you have any LOL 😂😂Peter have already stated he didnt have big holdings in bitcoin and what he have lost is a small amount of bitcoin gifted to him. He just tweeting to show his hate towards bitcoin holders.😛

Have you even done 10% of the research needed to know most about Peter Schiff's loss of funds? Nobody stole his coins. He allegedly lost his password to the wallet but blames the wallet for it. Long story short, he did not back up his seed so he lost access to his Bitcoins.
You could read literally the first paragraph of any article about his funds and it would be enough to know there's nothing linked to theft in his case.

Weather you agree with Peter Schiff or not, he is a millionaire many times over and a very intelligent guy. He did NOT, NOT, NOT lose his password, you obviously did not see him talk about this. Peter stated very clearly that he did not back up his seed, and does not even know what it is.
So the question is, Why did his password just stop working ? Is this typical with Bitcoin ? How can others prevent this ?
January 21, 2020, 01:33:50 PM
Attention seeking? Probably.
But what's also possible, maybe probable, would be a hack. Could he have been hacked? Do we know anything about what type of wallet he uses? Has he ever bragged about such things?
The media drama/hype that he could be drumming up to disparage bitcoin is totally suspect, which is funny, because so many people have lost money at bitcoin (having bought high, etc) that he really doesn't need to help.

So I believe whatever he is saying about his lost bitcoins (all gifted, not bought) is jut an attention seeking drama!
I bet he was holding a few hundred dollars worth of bitcoin and he just created a media buzz with his lost bitcoin because he lost the password and now this is the second thread in this forum discussion his lost bitcoin 
. If he is not having the intelligence to write down his password and seed key there is no point in telling that he had bitcoin

Peter Schiff is a known bitcoin hater.
I think is a hater or an attention seeker that will suddenly talk of this if for a long time that he has hodl the coins, he hasn't talked about that. Or he has not been accessing the wallet before now to come up with such story.

There's a much higher quality topic in the Press Board here. People there recognise that Schiff lost the sum that was gifted to him. People would be well-advised to stop posting in this low-quality (and likely intentionally misleading) topic.
Just because someone registers an account here, doesn't necessarily mean they're your "fellow Bitcoin follower". OP appears to be a troll account and shouldn't be taken seriously.
Settle down, my fellow Bitcoin follower.

Settle down, my fellow Bitcoin follower. The fact that Peter Schiff lost his bitcoins has nothing to do with the drop in price. That's an isolated event - I didn't even know who Peter Schiff was to be sincere even if I consider myself a veteran in the cryptocurrency industry. He may have held some BTC in his account, but I'm sure he didn't have a significant amount. And he lost the access to his bitcoin wallet - not necessarily that someone hacked the account. At the end it could be just a fake statement to somehow influence the sentiment of the retailers.

where's the hard fact there?
Peter Schiff's Bitcoins wasn't stolen and he already admitted that he lost his keys to access the bitcoins. IMO, this guy is a fraud, how will you lost access easily on his BTC. He is claiming that his wallet is being corrupted and stating his password is already not valid, that's the first time I hear those kinds of excuses on losing BTC. Probably he just wants to give negative thoughts on BTC to the public or just wanted public attention.
Most of the people think PS is just an anti-Bitcoin and probably it's true.
