Robert Kiyosaki, the acclaimed author of ‘Rich Dad Poor Dad’, has recently identified Bitcoin (BTC) as the most effective safeguard against the potential threat of hyperinflation. His assertion comes amidst growing concerns about an imminent economic downturn, particularly in the United States.

In a message shared on a popular social media platform, Kiyosaki cautioned his followers by referencing historical instances of hyperinflation in Germany and Zimbabwe. He drew parallels between these historical events and the current U.S. situation, emphasizing the importance of understanding hyperinflation’s impact.

Kiyosaki described the current U.S. government as “the most incompetent ever” and underscored the significance of Bitcoin as a viable defense mechanism. He highlighted Bitcoin’s decentralized nature as a key factor that places its value in the hands of people, rather than government leaders.

“Food will always be valuable as will guns, gold, and silver. Yet I believe Bitcoin is your best protection because Bitcoin is People’s money which means people control the value of Bitcoin not our leaders.”

Kiyosaki has repeatedly warned about hyperinflation, defining it not merely as a surge in prices but as a decrease in the purchasing power of money. In October, he advised investing in gold, silver, and Bitcoin to mitigate the risks associated with the potential fall of the “American Empire” and the declining global dominance of the U.S. dollar.

Currently, Bitcoin is trading around $37,200, showing a 1.6% increase over the past day and a 24% rise over the past month. Year-to-date, it has surged over 120%.

A long-time proponent of Bitcoin, Kiyosaki favors it over other altcoins due to its commodity classification, akin to gold and silver, as opposed to other cryptocurrencies that he believes will face regulatory challenges. He has also made bold predictions about Bitcoin’s price, estimating it could reach $500,000 by 2025.

Kiyosaki’s best-selling book, ‘Rich Dad Poor Dad,’ released in 1997, emphasizes financial education, independence, and wealth creation through various investment avenues. The book has been a fixture on the New York Times Best Seller List for over six years.
