Kiyosaki: “I own Bitcoin for the same reason I own gold – I don’t trust the Fed”
Buffett calls crypto speculation; Rich Dad author says stocks & bonds are the real casino
Legendary investor clash reignites as Bitcoin surges past previous all-time highs in 2025
Rich Dad Poor Dad author Robert Kiyosaki just dropped a brutal truth bomb on Warren Buffett—and the entire legacy finance world is shaking. In a viral X post, Kiyosaki directly addressed Buffett’s long-standing criticism that Bitcoin is “rat poison squared” and nothing more than gambling. The Oracle of Omaha has repeatedly warned that a “blow-off top” will wipe out crypto holders. From his Berkshire Hathaway ivory tower, he might even be right… if we still lived in 2017. Kiyosaki flips the script with surgical Precision Stocks crash (2000, 2008, 2022) Real estate crashes (2008, commercial RE meltdown right now) U.S. government bonds—the “safest” asset on earth—are being quietly dumped by Japan and China, the two largest foreign holders
Meanwhile, Wall Street keeps peddling these “manufactured assets” to retirement accounts while the Fed prints trillions out of thin air. Sound like gambling to you? “I Own Gold Mines, Gold, Silver—and Bitcoin & Ethereum” Kiyosaki’s core thesis is simple and devastating: “I do not trust the Federal Reserve Bank, U.S. Treasury, or Wall Street. Apparently Buffett does. I think they’re right… U.S.” He invests in Bitcoin and Ethereum knowing they can boom and bust—because the Fed, the Treasury, and fiat itself can produce Bitcoin or crypto. But the reverse isn’t true. Decentralized networks can’t print endless dollars or secretly manipulate interest rates at 2 a.m. on a Sunday.
This isn’t blind crypto bro optimism. Kiyosaki literally owns physical gold mines and stacks silver coins for the exact same reason: protection against a corruptible system. Bitcoin is simply “digital gold” with a fixed 21-million supply—something no central banker can inflate away.
Warren Buffett became a billionaire mastering the old rules. Robert Kiyosaki is preparing his followers for the new ones. One trusts the system that made him rich. The other trusts math that can’t be forged. In 2025, with nation-state Bitcoin adoption accelerating and central banks loading up on crypto reserves behind closed doors, the debate isn’t really about Bitcoin anymore. It’s about who still believes the old monetary operating system has another 50 years left.
History rarely sides with the comfortable incumbent. Ask Kodak. Ask Blockbuster. Ask the guy who said the internet was a fad. The Kiyosaki vs. Buffett saga just became the clearest generational handover signal in finance. Choose your side wisely.
