Bitcoin’s appeal is simple. No government controls it. Only 21 million will ever exist. The whole system runs on transparent blockchain technology that anyone with internet access can use. It’s like digital gold, but without the storage headaches.
Meanwhile, the dollar? Just paper promises backed by a government drowning in debt. Kiyosaki claims US financial obligations exceed $230 trillion. That’s not a typo. Trillion with a T. The Fed keeps printing, inflation keeps creeping, and the dollar’s global dominance keeps slipping. Not exactly a recipe for long-term confidence.
Institutions are catching on. They’re pouring money into Bitcoin, building ATMs worldwide, and trading futures like there’s no tomorrow. Even the SEC finally approved spot Bitcoin ETFs after years of foot-dragging. Countries are considering it as legal tender. That wasn’t happening five years ago.
The regulatory landscape remains a mess. Different rules in different countries. Tax confusion everywhere. But that hasn’t stopped Bitcoin’s market cap from hitting $1.67 trillion with daily trading volume of $307 billion. Numbers don’t lie.
Is Bitcoin perfect? Hell no. It’s volatile, complex, and still finding its place. Some investors prefer the stability of stablecoin alternatives which maintain consistent value by being pegged to stable assets like the dollar or gold. Despite its recent 22% price drop from its all-time high, Kiyosaki sees this volatility as a buying opportunity rather than a reason to panic. But at least it plays by predetermined rules. The dollar plays by whatever rules the government decides this week.
When foreign nations stop buying US bonds—and eventually they will—Kiyosaki predicts inflation will explode.
