Entrepreneur and author of the bestseller Rich Dad Poor Dad Robert Kiyosaki supported the forecast of MicroStrategy founder Michael Saylor, who predicted that Bitcoin’s value would rise to $13 million.
Kiyosaki urged investing in the leading cryptocurrency, calling it a more promising alternative to managerial education.
“Michael Saylor claims Bitcoin will reach $13 million. I agree with him—he’s a smart guy. Bitcoin is currently priced at $90,000. If he’s right, you can buy 0.1 BTC for $9,000 and become a millionaire tomorrow. That’s far better than accumulating $50,000 in student debt for an MBA. Be smarter—buy Bitcoin. I already have,” Kiyosaki wrote.
According to Saylor’s forecasts, Bitcoin will grow by an average of 29% annually and reach $13 million by 2050, driven by widespread institutional adoption and the development of regulated solutions for storing crypto assets.
Historical data from CoinMarketCap shows that the value of Bitcoin has increased by 150,496,431% since 2010. However, recent years demonstrate more moderate trends: in 2022, Bitcoin’s price dropped by 60%, while in 2023 it surged by 155.5%, and since November 2023, it has grown by 150.4%.
In March 2024, Kiyosaki predicted that Bitcoin would hit $300,000. He later revised his forecast to $350,000 by August 25, though this prediction ultimately proved incorrect.
The entrepreneur remains committed to Bitcoin and recently revealed that he holds 73 BTC. He also stated his intention to increase his holdings to 100 BTC next year, regardless of the asset’s price.
Experts point out that Kiyosaki’s optimism reflects the growing interest in cryptocurrencies as an alternative means of safeguarding wealth amid economic uncertainty.
