Robert Kiyosaki, author of the best-selling financial book “Rich Dad Poor Dad,” has once again encouraged investors to allocate funds to Bitcoin, citing concerns about inflation and the weakening US dollar. He referred to the latest US Treasury actions as another round of quantitative easing, claiming this would further erode the purchasing power of cash holders.
Kiyosaki, known for his outspoken views on personal finance and investing, emphasized that those with financial education are better equipped to protect and grow their wealth amid ongoing inflation. He highlighted the need to acquire assets that appreciate over time, such as gold, silver, Bitcoin, and selected real estate, arguing these provide a hedge against monetary debasement.
In a recent post on X, Kiyosaki described the US Treasury’s repurchasing of long-term government bonds as “printing fake $,” and warned that continued expansion of the money supply would ultimately hurt savers. He noted that investors who understand the mechanics of money and focus on appreciating assets will “get richer” while those who hold cash risk losing their purchasing power.
Kiyosaki maintained that the real cost of financial ignorance is not the money spent on education, but “the money you do not make.”
His comments follow the Treasury’s August 2024 announcement that it would increase its repurchase operations for long-dated bonds to at least $4 billion per operation. This move comes amid growing concerns over US government debt levels and volatility in Treasury markets.
Kiyosaki has consistently presented the risks of monetary debasement and excessive government borrowing as key reasons for holding Bitcoin.
Kiyosaki’s history of making bold Bitcoin price forecasts has drawn both attention and criticism. In June 2024, he predicted that Bitcoin would soar to $350,000 by August 25 of the same year—a target that ultimately was not reached. Shortly afterward, he increased his projections, stating in November 2024 that BTC could hit $500,000 by 2025.
Kiyosaki later raised his long-term forecast, suggesting Bitcoin could reach $1 million by 2035. He also projected gold could rise to $30,000 and silver to $3,000. He has since reiterated that a $1 million valuation for Bitcoin may be possible as soon as 2030, a view that remains significantly more optimistic than the current consensus among mainstream analysts.
Despite past predictions not materializing within the set timelines, Kiyosaki has not wavered in his bullish outlook for Bitcoin. His frequent revisions and increasingly ambitious price targets have been the subject of debate among both supporters and skeptics.
Kiyosaki’s long-term belief in Bitcoin’s potential stands out, but critics point to his pattern of shifting price targets, noting that his previous prediction of $350,000 in August 2024 did not come to pass, and subsequent forecasts have increased substantially.
