Robert Kiyosaki, author of the global bestseller Rich Dad Poor Dad, is continuing his aggressive investment strategy to hedge against the declining value of cash by purchasing more Bitcoin (BTC) despite the ongoing weakness in the virtual asset market.

According to crypto media outlet CoinGape on Feb. 21 (local time), Kiyosaki recently announced that he bought an additional 1 BTC when the price corrected to around $67,000. Despite the market retreating significantly from its all-time high of $126,000 recorded in October 2025 and showing bearish momentum, Kiyosaki maintains that holding Bitcoin is a far safer choice than saving fiat currencies such as the U.S. dollar. He emphasized that even if Bitcoin’s price fluctuates in the short term, such volatility should be viewed as an opportunity to accumulate assets.

Kiyosaki’s first key reason for buying more Bitcoin is his fear of the rapid surge in U.S. government debt and the consequent decline in the dollar’s value. He strongly criticized the Federal Reserve, arguing that it will print even more money to address the astronomical national debt and that the dollar—what he calls fake money—will ultimately become worthless. He explained that gold, silver, and Bitcoin, which cannot be controlled by the government, are the only means of protecting personal wealth from inflation, taxes, and stock market manipulation.

The second reason lies in Bitcoin’s limited supply of 21 million coins. Kiyosaki stated that once the final 21 millionth Bitcoin is mined, it will become a superior store of value compared to gold. Referring to Bitcoin as a magical asset, he argued that unlike fiat currencies with unlimited issuance, the value of scarce digital assets is bound to increase over time. Citing his experience of continuously buying silver from when it was $1 until it reached $32, Kiyosaki suggested that the quantity of assets held, rather than their price, will become the true measure of wealth.

Data from on-chain analytics firm Santiment supports the movements of investors like Kiyosaki. Although large investors, or “whales,” have been trimming some of their holdings as Bitcoin pulls back from its peak, retail investors have been increasing their Bitcoin holdings, demonstrating continued confidence in the market. Kiyosaki predicted that a major economic upheaval is approaching, with jobs disappearing due to advances in artificial intelligence and the real estate market collapsing. In such a crisis, he believes Bitcoin could become the easiest tool to reverse the wealth gap.

Kiyosaki maintains his bold forecast that Bitcoin will surpass $250,000 in the long term and eventually reach $1 million, urging investors not to fear making mistakes but to take action. His conviction that Bitcoin will serve as the last line of defense against the collapse of the global financial system remains firm despite regulatory uncertainty. The virtual asset market is closely watching whether Kiyosaki’s moves will stimulate investor sentiment and serve as a catalyst for a new rebound.
