Robert Kiyosaki is sounding the alarm again. The financial analyst recently published a series of alerts about an imminent stock market collapse, and this time he is very specific about how to prepare for what may come.
According to Kiyosaki, the way to defend oneself is to accumulate scarce assets. He mentions bitcoin, ethereum, gold, and silver as the main pieces of this defensive strategy. But it’s not just about passively defending oneself — Kiyosaki is planning to strike when opportunities arise.
He reveals that he intends to keep buying bitcoin as prices fall. And here’s the reasoning behind that: with only 21 million bitcoins in total and most already mined, Kiyosaki sees scarcity as a structural factor that will drive value in the long term. For him, price drops are not disasters — they are discounts.
This view is not new to Kiyosaki. He references his 2013 book, Rich Dad’s Prophecy, which already warned of financial crises. His message is consistent: well-prepared investors can gain substantial profits during turbulent times, while the unprepared suffer significant losses.
But not everyone agrees with Kiyosaki’s optimism. Mike McGlone, strategist at Bloomberg Intelligence, presents a more pessimistic outlook. He suggests that the cryptocurrency market could face much deeper declines — up to 85% from the highs, which would bring bitcoin down to around $10,000.
Currently, bitcoin is trading around $76,690. Compared to prices from a few months ago, this reflects the characteristic volatility of the crypto market. While some see this as a warning sign, Kiyosaki interprets the exact opposite: volatility creates opportunities, and dips are moments when price-less assets go on sale.
The question remaining is whether the current volatility validates Kiyosaki’s long-term approach or if McGlone is right about even deeper drops ahead. What seems clear is that preparation remains the central theme — whether to capitalize on opportunities or to protect against risks.
