'Rich Dad Poor Dad' Author Robert Kiyosaki Says Bitcoin At $107,000 Is 'Expensive' But He's Still Buying More

Financial market commentator Robert Kiyosaki said Monday he would continue to accumulate Bitcoin BTC/USD despite finding it “expensive” at $107,000 apiece.

What Happened: In an X post, Kiyosaki, the acclaimed author of “Rich Dad Poor Dad”, shared his experience with the apex cryptocurrency.

He admitted to entering the Bitcoin market “late,” purchasing his first coin at $6,000. Despite initially considering this price steep, Kiyosaki now wishes he had invested more at that rate.

“Today Bitcoin is $107,000 a coin. Again my mind says ‘That's expensive’ but I am buying more,” he said.

The point he seemingly tried to convey is that what appears expensive today may be seen as cheaper in the future, a belief based on his conviction in Bitcoin’s long-term prospects.

“If and when Bitcoin's sells for $1 million a coin, I will once again be saying ‘I wish I had bought more,'” Kiyosaki said.

He encouraged others to invest, even if only in one Satoshi, stressing the value of accumulation rather than focusing on short-term price tags.

Why It Matters: Kiyosaki’s bullish stance on Bitcoin comes amid his warnings of a potential global monetary collapse. Last week, he predicted a global debt bubble burst and advised his followers to invest in gold, silver and Bitcoin

While Kiyosaki is a staunch supporter of Bitcoin, his predictions should be taken with a grain of salt. Some of his past predictions were way off target. 

He projected Bitcoin would hit $100,000 in June 2024, a level that the apex cryptocurrency hit six months later. On one instance, he even painted a $350,000 price target by August 2024.

Kiyosaki has projected Bitcoin to hit $250,000 within this year, attributing it to a potential collapse of the central bank system.

Price Action:  At the time of writing, BTC was exchanging hands at $107,161.21, down 1.29% in the last 24 hours, according to data from Benzinga Pro
