Robert Kiyosaki – the famous author of the personal finance book “Rich Dad Poor Dad” – once again draws attention in the investment community by stating: “Bitcoin is the easiest money in history.” He emphasizes that even owning just 0.01 BTC today could change your life in the future.
So what makes Kiyosaki so strongly believe in Bitcoin? Is this a warning, financial advice, or a clear signal for retail investors to act before it’s too late?
Why is Bitcoin the “easiest money”?
In a recent post on platform X (Twitter), Kiyosaki wrote: “Only about 1-2 million Bitcoins left to be mined, and this is the easiest phase in history to become wealthy.”
His core message is very clear: Bitcoin is a scarce asset. The total supply is limited to 21 million BTC. As of May 2025, about 19.7 million Bitcoins have been mined, meaning most of the quantity has been put into circulation. This makes the remaining supply increasingly rare – and like all laws of supply and demand, the value of a scarce asset will increase as demand rises.
Bitcoin also has a unique growth factor: the phenomenon of “halving” – a mechanism that reduces the BTC mining reward every 4 years. The most recent halving occurred in 2024 and the next one will be in 2028. Historically, halving cycles often lead to a significant price increase of Bitcoin after about 12–18 months.
Kiyosaki's bold forecast: BTC 250K by 2025, gold and silver will also explode
Not stopping at Bitcoin, Kiyosaki also forecasts for gold and silver – two traditional assets often seen as “safe havens” during economic instability.
Bitcoin: Expected to reach 250,000 USD by the end of 2025, potentially up to 1 million USD by 2035.
Gold: From the current level of over 3,300 USD, he believes gold could reach 25,000 USD/ounce this year, and up to 30,000 USD in the long run.
Silver: Predicted to rise to 70 USD/ounce this year, and 3,000 USD/ounce in the long run.
According to Kiyosaki, these three assets serve as hedges against risks from issues such as rising credit debt, widespread unemployment, and declining retirement fund values.
Don't be a “banana peel” – start with 0.01 BTC
Robert Kiyosaki warns that many people will stay out of the game due to lack of information or fear of risk, and he calls them “banana peels” – a metaphor referring to those who hesitate and miss opportunities.
According to him, even if you cannot afford to buy a whole Bitcoin, you can still start with a small amount – such as 0.01 BTC, equivalent to a few million VND. The important thing is to act early, because when the price increase momentum begins, it will be very hard to buy at a reasonable price.
How to invest wisely?
If you are interested in Kiyosaki's advice but still wary of risks, consider some safe strategies below:
Start small: There’s no need to go all in. Invest a small portion that matches your financial capability.
Use reputable exchanges: Choose large, transparent platforms with security certifications.
Secure storage: For large amounts of money, consider using a cold wallet to avoid hacking or loss of access.
Keep a long-term perspective: Bitcoin often experiences strong short-term volatility, but in the long run, history has shown great profit potential.
Educate yourself: Learn thoroughly about blockchain technology, how Bitcoin works, and potential risks.
Opportunity or illusion – you decide
No one can predict the future with certainty, but Robert Kiyosaki is not one to speak lightly. He is a practical investor who has closely followed market fluctuations for decades. And if he believes that “Bitcoin is the easiest money ever” – then at the very least, it deserves your time for consideration.
Act or sit on the sidelines – the choice is yours. But remember: those who are “banana peels” often only regret it when it’s too late.
