Best-selling author of “Rich Dad Poor Dad” Robert Kiyosaki once again publicly endorses Bitcoin. In a social media post promoted by Bitcoin historian Pete Rizzo, he stated that if he could only choose one asset, he would firmly choose Bitcoin over gold or silver. This statement quickly sparked heated discussions within the crypto and macro investment communities.
Kiyosaki has always advocated for “hard assets” to hedge against the declining purchasing power of fiat currency, but this time, he places Bitcoin above precious metals. His core reasoning lies in its scarcity structure: Bitcoin’s maximum supply is encoded in the protocol, fixed at 21 million coins, with a verifiable and unchangeable supply cap. He believes this “programmatic scarcity” is superior in the long term to traditional precious metals, which rely on mining and reserve estimates.
As a long-term Bitcoin supporter, Kiyosaki has repeatedly emphasized that the global monetary easing cycle is recurring, and that monetary supply expansion is irreversible. Bitcoin offers a value storage path decoupled from sovereign systems. In his view, the real risk is not price volatility but the ongoing dilution of purchasing power.
Although skeptics often question Bitcoin’s high volatility, supporters argue that this volatility is the source of its asymmetric returns. Its recovery after historical drawdowns has also led more macro investors to reassess its long-term allocation value. Kiyosaki’s latest stance further reinforces the narrative of Bitcoin as a “digital scarce asset.”
This statement also reflects a broader shift in thinking: some investors are no longer diversifying across multiple hard assets but are viewing Bitcoin as a core hedging tool. Despite uncertainties in the path forward, endorsements from well-known opinion leaders are driving the increasing prominence of Bitcoin in mainstream asset discussions.

Bitcoin's decline has yet to reach the pain point; March may present a strategic accumulation opportunity
Bitcoin fell nearly 15% in February, and the market expects a rebound in March, but analysts warn that current losses are not at their maximum, and prices still have room to decline. Bitcoin's Sharpe ratio is near the bottom, and it may continue to fall to $48,000-$52,000. The unrealized loss rate is as high as 39%, and the historical bottom has not yet arrived. Geopolitical tensions increase market uncertainty, and investors should proceed cautiously. March may be a key window for a phased bottom.
