The well-known personal finance author Robert Kiyosaki has issued a fresh and bold forecast that the cryptocurrency Bitcoin could soar substantially as the global economy confronts mounting pressures.
His message comes amid concerns about government debt, fiat-currency weakness and what he calls a forthcoming financial “crash”.
Kiyosaki, author of the best-selling Rich Dad Poor Dad series, told his large social-media following on X that the current economic climate presents what he describes as “one of the biggest opportunities in history” and that Bitcoin might be the vehicle to capitalise on that change.
Kiyosaki’s forecast centres on his view that huge levels of sovereign debt, aggressive money-printing and the potential erosion of the value of fiat currencies will drive investors toward scarce digital assets.
He argues that Bitcoin, with its capped supply, is uniquely positioned to benefit from such dynamics.
In recent comments, he warned: “The biggest opportunity in history is here… BITCOIN has made it easy for everyone to become rich… Yet most people with FOMM [fear of making mistakes] will miss one of the greatest wealth creations in history.”
He has described the U.S. Treasury and the Federal Reserve as operating outside what he calls “the laws of money”, suggesting that the current system may be on the brink of a major fault.
“Unfortunately, the US Treasury and Fed break the laws. They print fake money to pay their bills. If you and I did what the Fed and Treasury are doing…. We would be in jail for breaking the laws.” Robert posted.
According to multiple recent reports, Kiyosaki sees Bitcoin reaching US $250,000 by 2026, as he reiterated his confidence in the cryptocurrency as a hedge against an imminent financial crisis.
Previously, he had suggested even higher levels, up to “$1 million by 2035” though he emphasises the timing depends on a broad economic collapse.
He also emphasises that now is the time to act. In one post he wrote: “Bitcoin is first truly scarce money … only 21 million ever to be mined… World close to 20 million now. Buying will accelerate. FOMO real. Please do not be late.”
Kiyosaki’s message reflects a growing narrative among certain investors: that Bitcoin may serve as a “digital gold” – a store of value and inflation hedge at a time when global interest rates, debt burdens and currency risks are under pressure.
Yet, while he is bullish, he also frames the scenario in terms of crisis: wealth creation, he says, comes not just from opportunity but from staying ahead of fear. He argues that emotional intelligence (EQ) matters more than formal education or technical know-how in investment success.
Bitcoin’s journey has been marked by wide swings and significant volatility. Analysts point out that while institutional adoption is increasing and regulatory clarity improving, risks remain; such as regulatory crack-downs, technological vulnerabilities and broader macro-economic shocks.
The cryptocurrency market continues to evolve with the development of ETFs, increased institutional interest and expanding use cases.
These developments lend plausibility to bullish scenarios like Kiyosaki’s, though most mainstream analysts caution that such high out-year targets remain speculative.
While Kiyosaki’s predictions attract attention, they also draw scepticism. Many traditional financial analysts caution that Bitcoin-price forecasts in the hundreds of thousands or millions rely on assumptions of hyper-inflation, massive fiat-currency devaluation or unprecedented global adoption.
Moreover, as Kiyosaki himself emphasises, scarcity and demand alone are not sufficient; timing matters, and unpredictability remains high. His track record as a finance commentator is well known, but he is not universally regarded as a market-forecast specialist.
Robert Kiyosaki’s latest remarks add to a chorus of voices urging investors not to ignore cryptocurrencies as part of a broader portfolio strategy. His message: act early, think differently, and recognise the potential of Bitcoin as an asset for a potentially volatile future economy.
