Rich Dad Poor Dad author Robert Kiyosaki has doubled down on his bullish outlook on hard assets, saying he will buy more gold, silver, Bitcoin and Ethereum even as the market braces for a possible crash.
In a post shared with X on Sunday, Kiyosaki warned of an impending recession, but said he was preparing for it by accumulating assets he called “real money.”
“The Crash is Coming: Why I’m Buying, Not Selling,” he wrote, setting an ambitious goal of $27,000 in gold, $100 in silver, and $250,000 in Bitcoin (BTC) by 2026.
Kiyosaki attributed his gold prediction to economist Jim Rickards, and said the $250,000 Bitcoin target is consistent with his long-held view of Bitcoin as protection against the Federal Reserve’s “fake money.”

Kiyosaki turns bullish on Ether, citing Tom Lee’s call
Kiyosaki is also bullish on Ether (ETH). Inspired by Fundstrat’s Tom Lee, Kiyosaki said he sees Ethereum as a blockchain that powers stablecoins, giving it a unique edge in global finance.
He explained that his belief in these assets stems from Gresham’s Law, which states that bad money drives out good money, and Metcalf’s Law, which links the value of a network to the number of users.
Kiyosaki, who claims to own both gold and silver mines, called the U.S. the “largest debtor nation in history” and criticized the U.S. Treasury and Federal Reserve for “printing counterfeit money” to cover the debt. He reiterated his famous argument that “savers are losers” and urged investors to buy real assets even during market corrections.
Meanwhile, on-chain data appears to support Bitcoin’s potential for an upturn. Market analysis platform Crypto Crib noted that Bitcoin’s market value by realized value (MVRV) ratio, a key indicator of market value and realized value, has returned to 1.8, the level before the historical 30-50% rebound.

Hayes says rising US debt will fuel Bitcoin’s rise
Last week, former BitMEX CEO Arthur Hayes said the Federal Reserve would be forced into a form of “stealth quantitative easing (QE)” as U.S. government debt continues to soar. He said the Fed is likely to inject liquidity into the financial system through its standing repurchase facility to help finance Treasury debt, although it won’t formally call it QE.
According to Hayes, this quiet balance sheet expansion will result in “positive dollar liquidity,” which will ultimately drive up asset prices, especially the price of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.
