Crypto: Robert Kiyosaki's Double Game Shakes the Market

Could Robert Kiyosaki be just a smooth talker? Can his statements on bitcoin still be taken seriously? The famous author of Rich Dad Poor Dad built his reputation on relentless accumulation of “hard” assets. Yet, his latest message on X leaves one puzzled. He suddenly talks about a pause, partial sales, patient waiting for a new bottom. The crypto-sphere is stirring. Does the guru really follow his own lessons or is he playing a more calculated double game than it appears?

Kiyosaki Unmasked: He Loaded High… and Now Sells Bitcoin

On February 6, 2026, Robert Kiyosaki posts a tweet that acts like a cold shower. He declares he stopped buying bitcoin at $6,000, gold at $300, and silver at $60. He even admits to having sold part of his bitcoins and gold, while explaining that he hates paying capital gains taxes. Today, he is patiently waiting for new bottoms. 

Yet, a few weeks earlier, he was still claiming to continue buying despite very high prices. The gap is stark. The X community reacts within hours. Community notes immediately point out the contradictions. Kiyosaki defends himself insisting on his “strike price” rather than purchase dates. 

But screenshots circulate. He accumulated during the rise. He is taking profits now.

Here are his exact words:

As I posted earlier on X. I stopped buying silver at $60. I stopped buying bitcoin at $6,000. I stopped buying gold at $300. I sold part of my bitcoins and gold. I hate selling because I hate paying capital gains taxes… Today, I am patiently waiting for new bottoms for gold and bitcoin, then I might buy back.

This fiscal discipline is surprising from someone who advocated infinite accumulation. The crypto market wonders: is Rich Dad really applying his rules?

The Crypto-Sphere in Turmoil: Is Kiyosaki Dodging His Own Bitcoin Lesson?

The controversy quickly swells. Kiyosaki answers the accusers by turning the question around: “How much bitcoin do you own? How many buildings? How many oil wells?” He refuses to be judged on dates and argues that only the entry price matters. Yet his own January 2026 publications show he was still buying when bitcoin was very high. He constantly recalls his maxim: 

Profit comes at purchase… not at sale. Rich Dad’s lesson: Pigs get fat… hogs end up at the slaughterhouse. 

He uses it to justify his current patience. But the facts tell a different story: he loaded up during the rally, sold part recently, and now waits for a real crash to return. Some crypto investors defend him: it’s smart tax management. 

Others see a blatant inconsistency. The debate divides the crypto-sphere. It reveals above all one thing: even the most iconic figures can falter when the crypto market spotlight focuses on their actions.

Bitcoin in Correction: Is Kiyosaki Watching for the Perfect Moment to Buy Back?

Behind the noise, the core message remains the same. Kiyosaki hammers that the real threat comes from US debt, the Fed, and “fake dollars.” He still sees bitcoin as insurance against the collapse of the fiat system. He says he has enough ethereum for now. He sets future targets: silver at $74, gold at $4,000. And he waits for the next bitcoin bottom. 

As early as February 1, he explained that he had cash ready to buy “on sale” after the drop. His philosophy hasn’t changed: the rich buy when everyone panics.

Kiyosaki already said it clearly on January 23 on X: no matter whether gold, silver, or bitcoin go up or down, he doesn’t care at all. Why? Because he knows that the national debt of the United States keeps increasing and the purchasing power of the US dollar melts like snow in the sun. That’s all. No fuss. No panic over daily prices. Just a cold conviction: the real enemy is the crumbling greenback. And as long as that continues, he stays on his course: accumulation, waiting, ignoring the noise.

The core of his vision holds firm. Only the timing divides crypto traders.

Key facts of this bitcoin/crypto sequence

• BTC Price: $70,143 at the time of writing this article;
• Kiyosaki sold part of his bitcoins and gold to finance his new house;
• He did not sell silver and holds his ethereum positions;
• His next target for silver is set at $74;
• He is still waiting for a new bitcoin bottom before massive buying.

For some observers, the current bitcoin correction is not temporary at all. The queen of cryptos seems to be sinking deeply into a sustained downtrend. Signs of capitulation are missing. Technical supports give way one after the other. The risk of a prolonged decline is significantly increasing.
