In a series of statements on February 8, 2026, Robert Kiyosaki addressed renewed skepticism surrounding his long-standing Bitcoin commentary, using the moment to restate a core principle of his investing philosophy: quantity matters more than timing, especially during volatile markets.
The debate reignited after critics pointed out apparent inconsistencies between Kiyosaki’s past claims of buying Bitcoin around $6,000 and his more recent public encouragement to buy at prices near $90,000 or even $100,000. Detractors framed this as contradictory market timing, questioning the credibility of his advice.
Kiyosaki pushed back, arguing that the criticism misses the point. He confirmed that he did accumulate Bitcoin around the $6,000 level but emphasized that he does not track purchases by exact dates or obsess over precise entry points.
Instead, he framed the discussion as a misunderstanding between price-focused thinking and asset accumulation thinking. In his view, critics fixate on when he bought, while he focuses on how much he owns.
He went further, stating that even if Bitcoin were to fall back to $6,000, he would see that move not as a failure of the asset but as a major accumulation opportunity. According to Kiyosaki, sharp drawdowns are a feature, not a flaw, of assets he believes are designed to outlast fiat currencies.
Kiyosaki used the moment to reinforce the broader “Rich Dad” framework he has promoted for decades. Central to that framework is the idea that asset allocation outweighs entry precision, particularly in periods of macro uncertainty.
He reiterated his belief that fiat currencies, especially the U.S. dollar, are structurally weak due to debt expansion and monetary policy. From this perspective, the goal in 2026 is not to outperform the market on short-term trades, but to steadily convert what he calls “fake money” into assets that cannot be easily diluted.
Bitcoin remains his primary digital hedge in this framework, but his messaging now places it alongside a wider basket of hard assets rather than treating it as a standalone trade.
Notably, Kiyosaki has increasingly included Ethereum in his public commentary this year, signaling a shift toward broader crypto exposure. While Bitcoin continues to occupy the role of “digital gold” in his portfolio, Ethereum is now described as a utility-driven complement rather than a speculative side bet.
This marks a subtle evolution in his stance. In earlier cycles, his focus was almost exclusively on Bitcoin, gold, and silver. In 2026, his narrative suggests a more diversified hard-asset strategy that blends scarcity, utility, and long-term adoption.
Kiyosaki’s comments arrive as Bitcoin recently tested the $60,000 region following a sharp correction. For supporters, his refusal to focus on timing aligns with the view that the recent sell-off represents a shakeout rather than a structural breakdown.
However, analysts continue to caution that this philosophy assumes a level of capital resilience many retail investors do not have. Large drawdowns of 50% or more can be psychologically and financially devastating for smaller portfolios, even if the long-term thesis eventually plays out.
Based on his recent statements, Kiyosaki’s preferred asset mix remains consistent in structure, if not in composition:
For Kiyosaki, the message is clear: market volatility does not change his strategy, it validates it.
