Robert Kiyosaki, who has maintained an optimistic outlook on Bitcoin (BTC), issued a warning of losses to buyers chasing the investment craze, clearly stating that a bullish forecast and indiscriminate buying in pursuit are separate matters.

According to crypto media outlet NewsBitcoin on May 30 (local time), Robert Kiyosaki, author of "Rich Dad Poor Dad" and an investor, warned via X (formerly Twitter) that one could incur losses by buying Bitcoin, gold, and silver based solely on an overheated atmosphere. Kiyosaki also criticized the claim that US Treasury bonds are safe, emphasizing that cash flow and capital movements should be examined in investment decisions.

Kiyosaki stated, "Remember that gold, silver, and Bitcoin can also make you lose money if you buy them just based on the hype." While maintaining his existing bullish stance, viewing Bitcoin as a long-term asset, he pointed out that the timing of investment entry, judgment, and conviction can determine the outcome. NewsBitcoin reported that Kiyosaki's remarks did not present Bitcoin as a risk-free asset, but rather a message that places investment discipline as a core condition.

This warning contrasts with Kiyosaki's long-term bullish outlook. He recently explained holding Bitcoin in connection with inflation defense, national debt, and currency weakness, and previously projected Bitcoin to reach $250,000. In another forecast, he mentioned that Bitcoin could reach $750,000 after a global financial shock. However, Kiyosaki's strategy focuses on a long-term asset perspective rather than short-term trading chasing hype.

Kiyosaki also stated that the movement of large funds should be noted. He claimed that major holders of US Treasury bonds, including Japan and China, are selling Treasury bonds and buying gold and silver. Kiyosaki said, "Today, many major holders of US Treasury bonds, like Japan and China, are dumping Treasury bonds and buying gold and silver." NewsBitcoin explained that this dynamic connects Bitcoin to the alternative asset discussion amid weakening confidence in the debt market.

Kiyosaki emphasized that investors should prioritize education and independent judgment. He warned that millions of baby boomers could face job losses and financial pressure in 2026, and has also mentioned the risk of market collapse, a bubble in everything, and recession between 2026 and 2027. His repeated message is geared towards building knowledge, holding capital in preparation for market shocks, and seeking stronger assets during crises.
