Kiyosaki Warns: ’Bitcoin August Curse’ May Crush Prices Below $90K

Bitcoin bulls, brace yourselves—Robert Kiyosaki just dropped a chilling prediction. The 'Rich Dad Poor Dad' author claims August’s historical volatility could slam BTC below $90K. Cue the sweaty palms.

Why the doomcast? Kiyosaki’s pointing to Bitcoin’s notorious August track record—a month that’s shredded portfolios more times than a Wall Street intern shreds documents. But here’s the kicker: he’s still long-term bullish. Classic finance whiplash.

Meanwhile, traders are split. Some see a fire sale opportunity; others are eyeing exit signs. Either way, the crypto casino stays open 24/7—no regulators required.

What Is the Bitcoin August Curse?

The “Bitcoin August Curse” refers to a recurring trend where Bitcoin declines or experiences significant corrections during the month of August. It’s not a guaranteed phenomenon, many experienced cryptocurrency investors are still keeping a careful eye on the market this month, anticipating unexpected price fluctuations.

Historical data also supports this seasonal anticipation. Bitcoin experienced extreme volatility last August. The price fell from a high of $65,587.9 at the start of the month to a low of $49,486.9 on August 5, marking an 8.7% drop. The month’s average price was $59,913.4 and showed a dramatic variance of more than $16,000 between the high point and the low point.

However, there has not been such a sharp drop in August 2025 yet. At the time of writing, Bitcoin price had reached $114,358, which is around 7% down from its recent all-time high of $123,00 on July 14 . 

Despite all of this, analysts like Arthur Hayes believe that Bitcoin will surge up to $250,000 by year-end 2025. Whether the “August Curse” will strike again this year remains to be seen, but investors like Kiyosaki are watching closely and preparing to buy the dip.
