However, the Commissioner of Financial Institutions of Puerto Rico, also known as Oficina del Comisionado de Instituciones Financieras (OCIF), has <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/peter-schiffs-euro-pacific-bank-suspended-by-puerto-ricos-regulator-schiff-insists-no-evidence-of-crime\/\">suspended<\/a> the operations of his bank due to its \u201ccrass noncompliance with the minimum capital requirements.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Schiff claims that he already has a buyer for the bank lined up but the regulator will not let him sell it.<\/p>\n<p>On Friday, he was asked on Twitter whether he is willing to sell his bank for bitcoin. Schiff, who has been a vocal bitcoin skeptic, replied: \u201cActually yes, I would sell the bank for anything if regulators let me sell it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/static.news.bitcoin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/schiff-tweets-sells-bank-for-bitcoin.jpg?X-Amz-Content-Sha256=UNSIGNED-PAYLOAD&amp;X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&amp;X-Amz-Credential=AKIAYIWLWC3GPQWL5SMB%2F20220710%2Fus-east-1%2Fs3%2Faws4_request&amp;X-Amz-Date=20220710T193214Z&amp;X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&amp;X-Amz-Expires=600&amp;X-Amz-Signature=25261da287b19db1fb8c1edbb7875db662bffeac96e9d12c777bf73137e89f47\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am committed to working with the Puerto Rico banking Commissioner to resolve the capital issues with my bank for the best interest of all the bank\u2019s customers,\u201d he stressed.<\/p>\n<p>Schiff has been tweeting about his bank\u2019s situation constantly since it was suspended by the Puerto Rican regulator.<\/p>\n<p>He has maintained that there is <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/peter-schiffs-euro-pacific-bank-suspended-by-puerto-ricos-regulator-schiff-insists-no-evidence-of-crime\/\">no evidence of crime<\/a> at the bank, noting that if the Commissioner would just approve the sale, customers can withdraw all their money now.<\/p>\n<p>Schiff clarified in a tweet Friday: \u201cMy bank was not put into receivership for being insolvent. It was put there for being under-capitalized, not having no capital. My bank has about $2 million in capital, no debt, no loans, and enough cash to repay all depositors in full. The buyer was to add $7 million in capital.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Schiffgold, another company he owns, has been accepting bitcoin since 2014. According to its website, the company also accepts a number of other cryptocurrencies through Bitpay.<\/p>\n<p>While he will accept bitcoin for his bank, Schiff continued to criticize the cryptocurrency. He also tweeted Friday:<\/p>\n<p>With bitcoin you don\u2019t have to worry about your bank being closed, you just have to worry about your bitcoin crashing in market value.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>What do you think about the situation Peter Schiff\u2019s bank, Euro Pacific, is in?
