Robert Kiyosaki Predicts Stock Market Crash, Calls Bitcoin Safe Haven

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.
