Rich Dad Poor Dad author Robert Kiyosaki announced that he is actively increasing his holdings in Bitcoin, gold, silver, and Ethereum. He explained that this decision is due to the growing economic tensions in the US and is confident that a major financial collapse lies ahead. According to him, the only way to protect capital remains real assets, not fiat currencies.
Kiyosaki noted that he has been following this strategy for decades. He recalled that he began buying gold back in 1971, after President Richard Nixon ended the gold standard. According to the investor, this was the key moment when "counterfeit money entered the system." He cited Gresham's Law, which states that "bad money drives out good," and added that this is when confidence in the dollar began to erode.
"Today, I continue to invest in real assets because the Federal Reserve and the US Treasury are violating the fundamental laws of money. They are printing currency that has no real value. If ordinary citizens did the same, they would be jailed," Kiyosaki said.
In his latest predictions, he indicated that by 2026, the price of Bitcoin could reach $250,000, silver $100, and Ethereum $60,000. He emphasized that he sees these assets as a hedge against inflation and the unpredictability of the financial system. He also called Ethereum "the foundation for stablecoins" and cited Metcalfe's Law, which states that the value of a network increases as its number of users increases.
Kiyosaki claims that the United States is now "the largest debtor in world history." This is why he intends to continue buying Bitcoin, gold, and other real assets, even if their value temporarily declines. "I've always said that savers lose. Only investors who own real assets can withstand a crisis," he emphasized.
Kiyosaki previously criticized Warren Buffett for his negative stance on gold and silver, and predicted Bitcoin would rise to $200,000 by the end of 2025. This spring, he called the first cryptocurrency "the greatest financial opportunity in history," and in May, he warned of hyperinflation, which, he said, would push Bitcoin's value to $1 million.
Thus, Kiyosaki remains one of the most consistent proponents of cryptocurrency and precious metals, seeing them not just as investments, but as a way to maintain financial independence in an era of instability.
