Renowned Rich Dad Poor Dad author Robert Kiyosaki is once again making headlines with his strong stance on hard assets amid rising fears of a global economic downturn. Despite warning of a looming crisis, Kiyosaki says he is expanding his holdings in gold, silver, Bitcoin, and Ethereum — assets he describes as “real money” in contrast to what he calls the Federal Reserve’s “manufactured currency.”
Kiyosaki: “A Crash Is Coming — That’s Why I’m Buying”
Kiyosaki reiterated his bearish outlook on the economy in a recent post on X, stating that he expects a severe contraction ahead. Rather than reducing exposure, he emphasized that such periods create opportunities to accumulate resilient assets. For 2026, the author laid out ambitious price projections: gold at 27,000 dollars, silver at 100 dollars, and Bitcoin climbing to 250,000 dollars.
He noted that his gold forecast draws from economist Jim Rickards’ long-term analysis, while his Bitcoin target aligns with his belief that BTC serves as a hedge against what he describes as the Fed’s continuous issuance of “fake money.”
Growing Confidence in Ethereum’s Future
While Kiyosaki has long been vocal about his confidence in Bitcoin, he has recently strengthened his positive outlook on Ethereum as well. Influenced by insights from Fundstrat’s Tom Lee, Kiyosaki argues that Ethereum’s foundational role in powering stablecoins gives it a strategic advantage within global financial infrastructure.
He frames his investment decisions around principles such as Gresham’s Law — the idea that inferior money drives superior money out of circulation — and Metcalfe’s Law, which links network value to user growth. According to Kiyosaki, these concepts reinforce why digital and physical hard assets could outperform during turbulent periods.
Kiyosaki also highlighted that he owns physical gold and silver mines, and criticized both the U.S. Treasury and the Federal Reserve for what he views as excessive money printing to manage national debt. He described the United States as “the most indebted nation in history,” repeating his long-held claim that “savers are losers” in an inflation-heavy environment.
On-Chain Metrics Point to a Possible Bitcoin Rebound
Supporting Kiyosaki’s optimistic outlook for Bitcoin, on-chain indicators are beginning to show potential signs of recovery. Data shared by Crypto Crib reveals that Bitcoin’s Market Value to Realized Value (MVRV) ratio has returned to 1.8. Historically, this level has often acted as a precursor to rallies of 30% to 50%, suggesting renewed upward momentum could be on the horizon.
