That assertion immediately raised eyebrows, as Bitcoin has not traded at that level since shortly after the COVID market crash in mid 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A Trail of Conflicting Statements<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kiyosaki has been one of Bitcoin\u2019s most vocal supporters since the pandemic era and has repeatedly encouraged followers to buy BTC alongside gold and silver, recently adding Ethereum to his list of favored assets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Over the years, he has frequently stated that he continues to accumulate regardless of price. In July 2025, for example, he posted that he had bought another Bitcoin while prices were trading above $100,000. Weeks later, as BTC surged past $117,000, he said he planned to buy again. In early 2026, he doubled down by claiming he ignores price levels entirely and simply keeps buying.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These public statements directly conflict with his latest claim of having stopped purchases at $6,000, leading many to question whether he is revising history or misrepresenting his past actions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Community Pushback Intensifies<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Crypto users were quick to highlight the inconsistencies, accusing Kiyosaki of misleading followers either now or for years. Some critics revisited other bold predictions and crash warnings he has made in the past that never played out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Market commentator Mark McGrath was among those calling him out, sharing a compilation of past statements and labeling Kiyosaki a serial grifter. The episode has once again fueled debate over the credibility of high profile investment influencers and the weight their claims should carry in volatile markets.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Robert Kiyosaki, the author of Rich Dad Poor Dad, is facing fresh backlash from the crypto community after making statements that appear to contradict his long&#46;&#46;&#46;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-580","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.coinsignals.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/580","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.coinsignals.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.coinsignals.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.coinsignals.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.coinsignals.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=580"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/blog.coinsignals.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/580\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":582,"href":"https:\/\/blog.coinsignals.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/580\/revisions\/582"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.coinsignals.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=580"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.coinsignals.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=580"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.coinsignals.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=580"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
