Kiyosaki Doubles Down on Gold, Silver, Bitcoin, and Ethereum
- Kiyosaki ignores price swings and keeps buying Bitcoin, gold, and silver as debt climbs.
- He targets $200 silver as Santiment data shows crypto social buzz overtaking both metals.
- Bitcoin stays below $90K as liquidity falls fast and network growth sinks to 2022 lows.
Bitcoin stayed weak against gold and silver as Robert Kiyosaki repeated his hard-asset stance. The Rich Dad, Poor Dad author said he does not care if Bitcoin, gold, or silver rises or falls. He argued that rising U.S. national debt and a declining dollar make short-term trading pointless. He said he prefers steady accumulation and ignores daily volatility.
Kiyosaki argued that long-term policy mistakes were made at the Federal Reserve, the Treasury, and the U.S. government. He said these institutions keep damaging confidence in fiat money. He again urged his followers to keep buying Bitcoin, gold, and silver through market swings. He framed the strategy as protection against monetary dilution.
Kiyosaki Targets $200 Silver as Crypto Social Buzz Overtakes Metals
He was most aggressive in his view on silver. Kiyosaki called silver better than gold because it works as money and as an industrial metal. He said silver supports technology production in the modern era. Kiyosaki compared its role today to iron’s role during the industrial age.
The author pointed to silver’s long-term price change. Silver traded near $5 per ounce in 1990. In 2026, it traded around $92 per ounce. Kiyosaki said silver could reach $200 per ounce before the end of 2026. He also admitted the call could be wrong.
Social data showed that attention moved between metals and crypto in waves. Santiment reported a sharp rise in crypto-related social discussions that reached one-year highs. The firm shared a chart comparing social volume for crypto, gold, and silver across the past year.
Santiment data highlighted that gold mentions surged first between January 9 and January 15. It then showed that silver mentions jumped between December 26 and December 28. Crypto mentions followed with a strong spike between January 18 and January 21. Santiment noted that crypto discussion volume has now overtaken gold and silver.
Prices still favored metals over Bitcoin during the past year. Silver gained 214% over that period. Gold rose 77%. Bitcoin fell 16%. The gap widened the narrative that metals are winning the safety trade. It also showed that Bitcoin has not tracked the same macro demand.

Bond Stress, Market Cap Shift, and Bitcoin Weakness Fuel Crypto Debate
In an X post, analyst Merlijn The Trader said the “old world” remains in control. He argued that gold and silver have been making moves that Bitcoin has not matched. He said the shift may come after the macro shock settles. He claimed that U.S. dominance could fade when bond stress rises.
Merlijn linked the potential shift to the bond market. He said bond stress can force liquidity relief. He said it can also drive yield suppression. Analyst added that it can contribute to currency debasement. He called that combination a setup that can fuel the next crypto turn.
He urged traders to watch bonds and the dollar for signals. He suggested that markets may respond once pressure becomes too high for policymakers to ignore. The analyst did not claim the rotation is confirmed. He framed it as a sequence that has appeared in stress cycles.
Analyst Ted added another comparison based on market size. He said gold added $3.9 trillion to its market capitalization in 2026. He said silver added $1.3 trillion in 2026. He said the entire crypto market is about $3 trillion. Ted stated, “Do you think the crypto market is undervalued now?”
Bitcoin remained the weak point in the crypto market. Bitcoin continues to trade below the key $90,000 level. According to Bitcoin Vector, network growth is at its lowest point since the 2022 capitulation. Bitcoin Vector also said liquidity is falling sharply. It noted that a similar setup in 2022 led to a long consolidation before a liquidity bottom and a strong bull run.
