Robert Kiyosaki, author of the global bestseller "Rich Dad, Poor Dad", again warned of a major financial market collapse and forecast that cryptocurrency and hard-asset prices will surge afterward.
CoinPost, a blockchain media outlet, reported on Monday that Kiyosaki recently wrote on X, formerly Twitter, that the issue is not whether a collapse will occur but when. He argued a major bubble collapse is imminent. He predicted bitcoin (BTC) will reach $750,000 and ether (ETH) $95,000 within a year after a collapse. He added that gold will rise to $35,000 and silver to $200.
Bitcoin is currently trading at about $74,000, meaning it would need to rise by about 10 times to match his forecast.
Kiyosaki has classified gold, silver and bitcoin as "hard assets" and has consistently urged buying. This latest remark is seen as repeating his earlier logic that distrust in the broader financial system will drive a sharp rise in the value of physical and digital assets after a crisis.
Questions about the credibility of his predictions have also continued. Kiyosaki warned of a major market crash in August 2025, but there was no major drop. He also warned of a correction in February 2026 and argued for increasing bitcoin purchases. In early March that year, he described a short-term decline in gold, silver and bitcoin as a "buying opportunity", repeatedly alternating between warnings and optimism.
In this forecast as well, he did not present a specific timing or triggering factors. Instead, he asked investors what they think prices will be a year after the next global financial crisis.
The market is divided over his remarks. Some interpret them as a message stressing the need for diversification from a long-term perspective, while others point to past forecasts that missed and say caution is needed before reflecting them directly in investment decisions.
