Kiyosaki predicts $1 million Bitcoin as inflation fears grow

Robert Kiyosaki, the author of "Rich Dad, Poor Dad," has forecast that Bitcoin (CRYPTO:BTC) could reach $1 million by 2035, citing persistent inflation and concerns over the weakening U.S. dollar as key drivers for this projection.

“I strongly believe, by 2035, that one Bitcoin will be over $1 million, Gold will be $30,000, and silver $3,000 a coin,” stated Kiyosaki in an April 18 post, reinforcing his long-standing advocacy for hard assets such as gold, silver, and more recently, Bitcoin.

Kiyosaki’s outlook is shaped by what he describes as mounting economic risks in the United States.

He points to record-high credit card and national debt, rising unemployment, and declining value in retirement accounts such as 401(k)s as signals of a potential “greater depression.”

“In 2025, credit card debt is at all-time highs, US debt is at all-time highs, unemployment is rising, 401k’s are losing, and pensions are being stolen.

The USA may be heading for a greater depression,” he warned.

He argues that traditional financial systems are vulnerable to inflationary policies and urges individuals to seek protection in assets that governments cannot easily dilute.

“For him, the answer is not to place trust in traditional financial systems. Instead, he advises building wealth using assets governments can’t dilute or tinker with — like Bitcoin,” according to his recent public statements.

Kiyosaki’s prediction aligns with a broader sentiment among some financial commentators and industry leaders.

Figures such as Jack Dorsey, Cathie Wood, and Adam Back have also suggested that Bitcoin could reach or exceed $1 million within the next decade, often citing institutional adoption and Bitcoin’s fixed supply as underlying factors.

Despite the speculative nature of these forecasts, Kiyosaki’s comments have contributed to ongoing discussions about Bitcoin’s role as a hedge against economic instability and the long-term impact of expansionary monetary policy.

At the time of reporting, the Bitcoin (BTC) price was $87,277.24.
