Robert Kiyosaki, author of Rich Dad Poor Dad, responded to the latest Bitcoin price drop with a long message on X, clarifying that he has no plans to sell and sees the downturn as part of a global liquidity squeeze rather than a failure of Bitcoin itself.
Kiyosaki described today’s market environment as an “everything bubble” bursting at once, not because assets are failing fundamentally, but because the world “is in need of cash.” He says he’s holding strong for one simple reason: he personally doesn’t need cash, so he isn’t forced to sell his high-conviction assets during panic.
He argues that global debt levels are so extreme that governments will eventually resort to what he and analyst Lawrence Lepard call “The Big Print”, massive monetary expansion to keep systems afloat. If that happens, he believes assets like gold, silver, Bitcoin, and Ethereum will rise significantly as fiat currencies weaken.

Kiyosaki also acknowledged the possibility of being wrong, emphasizing he does not give financial advice, only shares his own strategy. He noted that many people panic-sell simply because they need liquidity, not because they’ve lost conviction. “If you are fearful and need cash,” he wrote, “you may want to sell your best assets and go to cash.”
With his trademark humor, Kiyosaki referenced Miss Piggy from The Muppets:
“The key to money management is to always manage to have a lot of money.”
He linked this idea to his long-standing focus on cash-flowing assets, real estate, commodities, and private investments, which he prefers over stocks and bonds.
Kiyosaki closed by reminding followers that financial mistakes are how people truly learn. He says his own painful errors eventually made him wealthy, and encourages readers to continue learning rather than panic during downturns.
