Robert Kiyosaki Doubles Down on Bitcoin & Gold Amid Looming Financial Crisis
Finance guru sounds the alarm: 'Rich Dad' author Robert Kiyosaki is loading up on hard assets as traditional markets wobble.
The Bitcoin-Gold hedge: His latest move signals a loss of confidence in fiat systems—while Wall Street still pretends inflation is 'transitory'.
Why it matters: When the author of 'Prophets Doom' starts stockpiling decentralized money and ancient stores of value, maybe it's time to rethink your bond portfolio.
Bonus jab: Meanwhile, your bank still pays 0.01% APY on savings accounts while charging $35 overdraft fees.

- He says he is increasing his investments in Bitcoin, gold, silver, and, for the first time, Ethereum.

- He criticizes U.S. monetary policy and accuses the Fed of “printing fake money.”
Kiyosaki bets everything on tangible assets
A fervent supporter of Bitcoin and precious metals, Robert Kiyosaki reignited his critical discourse on the global economic situation by stating bluntly, in a message posted on X (formerly Twitter) on November 3rd : “a crash is coming: here is why I am buying instead of selling”.
CRASH COMING: Why I am buying not selling.
My target price for Gold is $27k. I got this price from friend Jim Rickards….and I own two goldmines.
I began buying gold in 1971….the year Nixon took gold from the US Dollar.
Nixon violated Greshams Law, which states “When fake…
According to him, a major crisis is imminent, but it does not justify liquidating positions. On the contrary, he states he is increasing his exposure to tangible assets. Through his statements, he puts forward shocking price targets for 2026, completely breaking with the market’s usual caution :
- Bitcoin (BTC) : $250,000 ;
- Gold : $27,000 ;
- Silver : $100.
Kiyosaki specifies that his estimate for gold comes from economist Jim Rickards, while his bitcoin target is consistent with his historical view of the first crypto as a form of “real money” compared to the “fake money” issued by central banks.
He explains these purchases by the necessity to protect against what he perceives as institutionalized monetary manipulation, specifically naming the Federal Reserve and the U.S. Treasury.
In a tone familiar to him, he accuses U.S. authorities of “printing fictitious money” and states : “The United States is the most indebted nation in history”. This stance is not just theoretical. He claims to own his own gold and silver mines, a choice that strengthens his credibility as an investor in physical assets, beyond mere rhetoric.
Signs of market rebound
Besides his comments on gold and bitcoin, Robert Kiyosaki also surprised by adopting a decidedly optimistic stance on Ethereum, an asset he rarely mentioned until now.
Inspired by analyst Tom Lee of Fundstrat, Kiyosaki believes the ethereum ecosystem plays a central role in the stablecoin infrastructure. According to him, this feature gives it a strategic place in the evolution of the global financial system.
He invokes “Metcalfe’s Law”, which states that the value of a network grows exponentially with the number of users, to justify his interest. Additionally, he refers to “Gresham’s Law”, according to which bad money drives out good, which in his analysis legitimizes investment in cryptos.
Beyond Kiyosaki’s personal statements, market indicators provide some support for his thesis. Indeed, bitcoin’s MVRV (Market Value to Realized Value) ratio has returned to 1.8.

Historically, this level has often preceded rebounds of around 30 to 50 %. Moreover, in the context of soaring U.S. debt, Arthur Hayes, former CEO of BitMEX, predicts a return of disguised quantitative easing via the Standing Repo Facility, a liquidity injection which, without naming it directly, could indirectly stimulate crypto prices.
