Kiyosaki Warns: Giant Market Crash Could Be Imminent

BTC-0.9%
ETH-0.48%
  • Kiyosaki says crashes are chances to get richer, buying Bitcoin while others panic can pay off big.

  • He paused buying gold, silver, and Bitcoin, planning to re-enter at lower prices for maximum profit.

  • US debt and economic risks make nontraditional assets like crypto and precious metals attractive to investors.

Financial educator and investor Robert Kiyosaki has sounded a stark warning to global investors. In a recent post on X, he urged followers to prepare for a “giant crash” in the stock market, a scenario he predicted years ago in Rich Dad’s Prophecy.

According to Kiyosaki, those who followed his advice and invested in assets like real gold, silver, Bitcoin, and Ethereum could see unprecedented gains. Conversely, unprepared investors may face significant losses. He emphasized, “I will be buying more Bitcoin as people panic and sell into the coming crash,” highlighting a contrarian strategy of buying during fear-driven sell-offs.

Apart from warning about the possible crash, Kiyosaki also announced last week that he has already sold some of his Bitcoin and gold. He had stopped buying silver at $60, Bitcoin at $6,000, and gold at $300. According to Kiyosaki, he will be back in the market once the prices go down, as he said, “Your profit is made when you buy… not when you sell.” This announcement of Kiyosaki elicited a strong reaction on X as some of his followers were not pleased with his announcement.

Market Sentiment and Volatility

However, investor sentiment is still weak due to the prevailing uncertainty in the market. Bitcoin, gold, and silver have been highly volatile in the past few weeks. For example, silver jumped to $121 in January 2026 but then corrected by over 45% within a week.

Therefore, Kiyosaki’s strategy is in line with the contrarian principle that has always contributed to a strong recovery in the cryptocurrency market. In addition, his views on scarcity are in line with the fixed supply of Bitcoin, which is almost reaching the 21 million cap.

Moreover, Kiyosaki expressed his concerns about the US economy, pointing out that the country’s debt has already surpassed $38 trillion. Kiyosaki’s views support the idea that some investors are looking for unconventional assets to hold their value in the future.
