Rich Dad Poor Dad author Robert Kiyosaki today (23rd) once again warned on social media platforms that "global currency is about to collapse", claiming that the largest debt bubble in human history is heading towards rupture; he urged investors to immediately allocate gold, silver, and Bitcoin to prevent asset evaporation in the storm, and this is also his first statement after Trump bombed Iran:
Is global currency collapse imminent? When the largest debt bubble in history bursts, will you become richer or poorer? If you want to become richer when the global debt bubble bursts, I recommend owning gold, silver, and Bitcoin. The biggest losers will be fake legal tender, especially bond depositors. Become a winner. Take action, become richer, while billions with outdated money concepts... become poorer.
Warning Basis: Uncontrolled Debt and Legal Currency Flaws
Kiyosaki previously believed the problem originated from the US dollar leaving the gold standard in 1971, allowing unlimited money printing. US national debt has accumulated over 36 trillion dollars, with credit card debt and unemployment rates hitting record highs, and inflation is eroding retirement funds. He calls stock, bond, and ETF paper assets "fake money" and asserts that the "legal currency game" is about to end.
Three Musketeers of Real Assets
Kiyosaki describes gold as "God's money", estimating it could challenge $25,000 per ounce short-term, reaching $30,000 by 2035; the price has already exceeded $3,100 in 2025. Silver is more accessible to general investors, which he says is still "significantly discounted", with a target price of $70 in 2025 and over three times that by 2035; emphasizing the importance of holding physical metal rather than ETFs. Bitcoin, with a supply limit of 21 million coins, is viewed as the ultimate hedging tool, predicting $250,000 by the end of 2025 and over $1 million by 2030.
"I like Bitcoin. I firmly believe it is digital gold. I personally hold a large amount of Bitcoin, and Trump holds quite a bit too."
Chain Reaction Triggered by Monetary Bubble
Debt-driven expansion continues to erode currency purchasing power, with inflation heating up; asset prices are propped up, widening the wealth gap. Excessive leverage weakens public confidence in the financial system, with the Silicon Valley Bank collapse in 2023 being a prime example. Once confidence breaks, Kiyosaki predicts paper assets could instantly become zero.
How Investors Should Respond
Regardless of whether the prophecy comes true, Kiyosaki's message highlights global debt pressure and legal currency fragility. Whether gold, silver, and Bitcoin can be a lifeline depends on risk tolerance and portfolio allocation. However, in an era of changing circumstances, actively understanding different asset characteristics might better protect wealth than blindly believing in "fake money".
