“If you do not know why Buffett and Rogers have sold their stocks and bonds, you may want to find out,” Kiyosaki wrote.

Citing rising U.S. debt levels and excessive money printing, Kiyosaki reiterated his preference for Bitcoin. Gold and Silver. “I sit tight with gold, silver, and Bitcoin,” he said. Kiyosaki has been an ardent promoter of Bitcoin and has been raising his voice, cautioning about the rising US National Debt, which has now crossed $37 trillion.

Kiyosaki Speaks Against Bitcoin ETFs

Although Robert Kiyosaki has been promoting Bitcoin for years, he has been against Bitcoin ETFs, while stating that’s not actually holding your own Bitcoins. His central argument is that crypto ETFs do not represent direct ownership of the underlying assets, making them less credible and more akin to fiat or “paper” money. “An ETF is like having a picture of a gun for personal defense,” he said.

On the other hand, spot Bitcoin ETFs have seen huge demand since their launch in January 2024. The net assets under management across all US ETF issuers have crossed a massive $175 billion. The Bitcoin ETFs are likely to get in-kind redemptions, allowing issuers to swap assets instead of cash.
