Robert Kiyosaki, known for his best-seller "Rich Dad Poor Dad," has become a strong advocate of Bitcoin, despite joining the crypto scene later than many.
In a recent episode of his The Rich Dad Channel podcast with Bitcoin expert Anthony Pompliano, Kiyosaki shared why he believes Bitcoin could signal the downfall of fiat currencies like the U.S. dollar.
Kiyosaki expressed concerns about the current state of the economy, claiming that artificial intelligence could accelerate an ongoing crash, while criticizing U.S. leadership for their role in economic instability.
He pointed out that blockchain technology, especially Bitcoin, offers transparency that fiat systems lack, asserting that Bitcoin’s position as the top cryptocurrency remains unchallenged.
Kiyosaki emphasized Bitcoin’s scarcity, highlighting that its fixed supply of 21 million coins drives demand, drawing parallels to Metcalfe’s law, which values networks based on user participation.
Previously, the best-selling author urged his followers to buy Bitcoin when it dropped below $53,000, seeing it as an opportunity. Currently, Bitcoin is trading at $60,220, reflecting a small drop over the past week.
Some market experts are forecasting that Bitcoin could soar to a new all-time high of $110,000 before encountering any significant pullbacks.
Bitcoin (BTC) is increasingly being seen as more than just a safe haven against financial turbulence; it may now be evolving into a legitimate tech stock, according to Geoffrey Kendrick, the head of digital assets research at Standard Chartered.
A Bitcoin whale has made waves by acquiring $200 million worth of BTC, just weeks after offloading over 11,400 coins.
