Kiyosaki renews bitcoin bull case, urges hard-asset hedge

Robert Kiyosaki renewed his bitcoin bullish outlook in posts on X on May 13 and May 16, linking bitcoin ownership to protection against inflation and weakening fiat currencies. He cited rising oil prices and growing national debt as forces that could reduce purchasing power and recommended that investors hold physical stores of value.

In the May 13 post he wrote, “2 reasons why inflation will steal your money,” tying the threat to conflict involving Iran that could keep oil prices high and to rising national debt that may prompt additional money creation. He warned that those pressures could push costs higher across the economy and erode the value of cash savings.

Kiyosaki urged investors to move away from holding only cash and toward tangible assets. He wrote, “Invest in real money, gold, silver, bitcoin, and ethereum, real money that will go up in purchasing power while fake money steals the wealth of those who do nothing. Please do not say ‘I can’t afford real money.'” In separate forecasts he projected bitcoin at $250,000, gold at $27,000 and silver as high as $200, and he has warned about the potential for a major market downturn.

On May 16 he focused on business strategy for entrepreneurs, describing lifelong learning and a reliable group of advisers as core assets. He listed bookkeepers, accountants, attorneys, marketing managers, product developers, bankers, gold and silver brokers, and stock and bond brokers as professionals business owners should consider working with, and he emphasized discipline and long-term execution in financial planning.

Kiyosaki framed bitcoin as a holding aimed at preserving purchasing power rather than a short-term trade. His messages addressed individual investors and entrepreneurs, urging them to reassess holdings, consult trusted advisers and consider allocating to gold, silver, bitcoin and other hard assets as part of a wealth-preservation approach.
