This tweet follows his earlier suggestions about investing in Bitcoin.
Kiyosaki who has penned down several financial books is a strong supporter of the Bitcoin ecosystem and had previously urged his followers to reduce their exposure to fiat currencies, which he described as part of the fake money system.
Rich Dad Poor Dads Bitcoin Predictions
The popular financial guru predicted that BTC could reach $300,000 by the end of 2024 as the worlds leading asset was experiencing significant rallies driven primarily by the introduction of spot Bitcoin ETFs.
He even deemed that BTC is superior to traditional assets such as gold, silver, and oil.
Despite his ownership of gold and silver mines along with oil wells, Kiyosaki said that a fundamental flaw in these traditional assets is that the more they are mined, the more their values are diluted. This contrasts sharply with bitcoin, which has a fixed supply of 21 million BTC, highlighting its advantage in terms of scarcity and potential long-term value.
