Robert Kiyosaki isn’t here for your “soft landing” fairy tales. The Rich Dad Poor Dad firebrand is once again yelling from the macro rooftop — not to sell the rips but to buy the crash. His shopping list? Gold, silver, Bitcoin, and now Ethereum. His price map to 2026? Absurd at first glance — but increasingly hard to laugh off in a world that’s drowning in debt and dollar dilution.
“Crash coming: Why I am buying, not selling.”
Kiyosaki’s placing chips where Jerome Powell’s money printer can’t reach:
- Bitcoin: $250,000
- Gold: $27,000
- Silver: $100
- ETH: Back in favor thanks to Tom Lee’s stablecoin thesis
These aren’t moonboy guesses — he’s leaning on two key ideas:
- Gresham’s Law: Bad money pushes good money out of circulation (translation: when fiat rots, people flee into harder stores of value)
- Metcalfe’s Law: Network effects drive real value — crypto’s not going away, it’s compounding.
Kiyosaki also cites Jim Rickards for his gold target — a man who’s been screaming about dollar decay since before TikTok existed. And Kiyosaki’s long-time despise-fest with the Fed hasn’t cooled:
“The United States is the biggest debtor nation in history… savers are losers.”
It’s crass, yes — but inflation has quietly robbed savers blind for a decade. In a debt-soaked economy powered by stimulus steroids, Kiyosaki’s thesis is simple: buy finite assets before the dollar gets sent to the retirement home.
And he might have the chart nerds on his side — on-chain trends like a rising MVRV ratio (~1.8) suggest Bitcoin could snap back 30–50%. Meanwhile, Arthur Hayes is whispering “stealth QE” — the Fed quietly juicing liquidity through repo facilities without admitting they lit the money printer again.
The TL;DR? Kiyosaki thinks the U.S. has engineered a debt trap big enough to warp Jupiter, and his escape pod is digital gold, physical gold, silver, and Ethereum’s stablecoin rails. Right or wrong, he’s putting skin in the game — and in an era of narrative tourism, that counts.
Trump Promises $2,000 Tariff Dividend — Crypto Claps, Economists Squint
Donald Trump just rolled a grenade into the macro arena: a $2,000 “tariff dividend” for most Americans — funded by tariffs, not taxes, and routed straight into voters’ bank accounts. Inflationary? Probably. Bullish for assets? Absolutely. Politically spicy? Buddy, this thing’s habanero.
“A dividend of at least $2,000 a person… will be paid to everyone.”
Not everyone’s cheering. The Supreme Court is currently chewing on whether Trump’s tariff authority is even legal, and prediction markets aren’t convinced:
- Kalshi odds: ~23% chance of court approval
- Polymarket odds: ~21%
Yet traders are doing what traders do: front-running liquidity. Crypto Twitter is treating this like airdrop season from Uncle Sam.
Macro commentators like Anthony Pompliano see it as gasoline for Bitcoin and stocks — stimulus is stimulus, and markets have been trained like Pavlov’s dogs: free money makes green candles.
But here’s the kicker: Washington has already strapped itself to a $34T debt bomb. Add tariff-funded checks and you get this economic cocktail:
- Short-term pump?
- Long-term monetary rot?
- Libertarians having a migraine?
As Bitcoin OG Simon Dixon put it:
“If you don’t put the $2,000 in assets, it gets inflated away.”
That’s the new investing religion: Buy hard assets or get left holding melting ice cubes.
This is political theater, stimulus psychology, and crypto adoption all colliding. Whether this becomes real policy or just another truth-social-powered market hiccup depends on nine robed humans in D.C.
But if the stimulus wave hits? Expect Bitcoin to do what Bitcoin does when governments toss gasoline on fiscal bonfires.
