Robert Kiyosaki, the bestselling author of ‘Rich Dad Poor Dad,’ is no stranger to making bold financial predictions—and his latest take on Bitcoin’s dip is no exception.
Posting on X (formerly Twitter) on January 8, Kiyosaki reframed the narrative around Bitcoin’s recent slide below $100,000—touching $95,000 before stabilizing at $96,000—as a rare buying opportunity rather than a cause for concern.
Kiyosaki’s playbook: “Buy Low, HODL Hard”
While most investors were biting their nails, Kiyosaki was already filling his shopping cart. With only 21 million coins ever to exist and fewer than 2 million left to be mined, every dip in price reinforces his belief that demand will one day collide with dwindling supply.

The author’s reaction was as sharp as ever when he took to X to make his stance crystal clear:
“Bitcoin crashing. Great news. I continue buying Bitcoin because Bitcoin crashing means Bitcoin is on sale. Remember ‘Buy low… and HODL.’ Less than 2 million more Bitcoins to be mined.”
This approach isn’t new for Kiyosaki. He has consistently positioned Bitcoin as a hedge against inflation and a safeguard from economic instability—a sentiment that has only intensified with his broader economic outlook.
Storm clouds and silver linings
The financial guru didn’t stop at Bitcoin. He earlier delivered a grim forecast about the global economy, stating that the “biggest stock market crash in history” is already unfolding. His message was clear: be prepared for falling prices across the board.
“Please be smart, keep your eyes and ears open. Many expensive assets such as houses, gold, silver, and Bitcoin will go on sale. I will be buying more real assets with fake US dollars.”
‘Rich Dad Radio Show’ host has long referred to printed money as “fake” due to the erosion of its value from inflation and excessive government spending. Instead, Kiyosaki advocates converting cash into “real” assets like gold, silver, and Bitcoin. His plan is straightforward: buy tangible, scarce assets when prices fall to build long-term wealth.
It’s important to note that Kiyosaki doesn’t put all his faith in Bitcoin alone. Gold and silver have long been his go-to assets for wealth preservation, and he frequently encourages his audience to diversify into these metals alongside cryptocurrencies. While he has mentioned other digital assets like Solana in the past, his focus has shifted back to the fundamentals, investments that he believes can weather financial upheavals.
