As gold inches closer to the $5,000 mark, attention is shifting toward Bitcoin, and Robert Kiyosaki is doubling down on why he believes it’s the better asset.
The Rich Dad Poor Dad author recently took to X (formerly Twitter) to explain why Bitcoin outshines gold and silver in his view. His main argument? Scarcity.
“One reason why I trust Bitcoin is there are only to ever be 21 million,” Kiyosaki tweeted. “I own gold and silver mines and oil wells. If the price of gold, silver, or oil goes up, I will simply mine or drill for more, expanding supply. I cannot do that with Bitcoin. 21 million is 21 million.”
Unlike precious metals, which can see supply increase when prices rise, Bitcoin’s supply is fixed, hard-coded into its system. No matter how high dthe emand goes or how much money is involved, the total number of Bitcoins will never exceed 21 million.
Kiyosaki sees Bitcoin’s fixed supply as a major win, especially when the economy is shaky. He calls it “digital gold” that’s immune to inflation, unlike cash, gold, or silver, which can always have more added to the mix.
He also emphasized that even with ownership of mines and oil wells, he can expand supply if market conditions allow. But with Bitcoin, neither he nor anyone else can create more — and that, he says, is why it holds its value better.
This isn’t Kiyosaki’s first public support for Bitcoin. He has long urged people to reduce their dependence on fiat money and has previously predicted that Bitcoin could reach $250,000 by 2025. Now, with Bitcoin hovering around $97,000, that prediction doesn’t seem so far-fetched.
Kiyosaki’s tweet dropped right when both gold and Bitcoin are heating up. And if history’s any clue, when the two rally side by side, Bitcoin usually takes the lead, thanks to its wild swings and growing hype.
His latest take only adds to the buzz: Bitcoin’s not just some digital bet anymore. It’s becoming the go-to hedge when things look shaky. Gold’s already breaking records — and if momentum holds, Bitcoin might be next in line.
