- Robert Kiyosaki has received heavy mockery for failing to capitalize on Gold.
- Kiyosaki converted his Gold holdings to Bitcoin 11 months ago and later liquidated his BTC position in 2025.
- Proper timing, achieved through understanding global liquidity flows, is key to capitalizing on the assets’ bull market.
Robert Kiyosaki, the author of Rich Dad Poor Dad, has fallen under heavy criticism for his investment strategy on Bitcoin (BTC) and Gold (XAG). The video reveals that Kiyosaki sold his gold position for Bitcoin 11 months ago, only for the former to rally over 100% while the latter is down over 6% in the same period.
Kiyosaki’s Investment Strategy Criticized
As such, Kiyosaki has been labeled as a grifter whose historical fame from real estate investment did not apply in the crypto and precious metal industry. Moreover, Kiyosaki later sold $2.25 million in Bitcoin to start a real-world business with a monthly cash flow of $27,500.
The poor timing in rotating his capital from Gold to Bitcoin has tarnished his credibility as a financial advisor. Nonetheless, Kiyosaki has retained his bullish stance on Bitcoin, and the precious metals have been catalyzed by global currency debasement.
“I just keep buying more gold, silver, Bitcoin, and Ethereum and get richer,” Kiyosaki stated.
What’s the Bigger Market Picture?
Kiyosaki’s investment style is a stern reminder to all investors that the basic understanding of the global liquidity flow is paramount. Furthermore, liquidity flow is the ultimate leading indicator that every investor must study to become profitable in asset trading and investment.
Currently, Gold and the wider precious metals industry have significantly benefited from the geopolitical tensions. However, Kiyosaki believes that Silver will outperform Gold in 2026 as he expects XAG to hit $200 per ounce before the end of this year. Moreover, Kiyosaki believes that Silver has been adopted as a store of value and money, thus attracting more liquidity.
Capital rotation from gold to Bitcoin is expected to increase in 2026 as more Wall Street analysts expect the crypto industry to outperform precious metals. For instance, Strategy and BlackRock’s IBIT have purchased Bitcoin worth billions since the beginning of 2026, after a prolonged period of inaction.
