Robert Kiyosaki Calls Monetary System a Ponzi Scheme, Suggests Bitcoin Investment

Jakarta, Pintu News – Robert Kiyosaki, author of Rich Dad Poor Dad, has warned that a major crash in the financial markets has begun. He emphasized that this crisis could destroy the financial future of millions of baby boomers and suggested that investors turn to real assets such as Bitcoin BTC1.31%->Current BTC PriceRp 1.359.433.7021.31%Market CapRp 0Trading VolumeRp 0Circulating SupplyRp 0, gold, and silver as a protective measure.

Kiyosaki has long criticized the global financial system, which he believes favors the elite and disadvantages small investors. He believes that in unstable economic conditions, traditional assets such as pension funds and government bonds are no longer reliable, making investment in real assets a safer option.

Ponzi Scheme in the Monetary System?

In his latest statement on social media X on March 8, 2025, Kiyosaki claimed that the market crisis prediction he wrote in his book Rich Dad’s Prophecy (2014) is now coming true. He highlighted the flaws inDefined Contribution ( DC) pension schemes, such as 401(k) and IRAs, which rely on individual contributions with no guaranteed fixed returns.

Unlike the traditional pension scheme(Defined Benefit or DB) that guarantees a fixed payment to retirees, the DC system can easily lose its value in volatile market conditions. Kiyosaki cites this condition as evidence that the current monetary system functions like a Ponzi scheme, where late entrants are more vulnerable to huge losses.

Bitcoin as a Safer Alternative

As a solution, Kiyosaki suggests that people should immediately invest in real assets such as gold, silver, and especially Bitcoin. He emphasizes that these assets are more reliable than paper-based assets such as stocks and government bonds.

Kiyosaki also warns investors not to buy Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) based on gold, silver, or Bitcoin, as he thinks ETFs are as “fake” as the US dollar and Treasury bonds. For him, direct ownership of physical assets or Bitcoin is safer than derivative-based financial instruments.

Bitcoin and US Government Policy

Kiyosaki further increased his Bitcoin holdings after former President Donald Trump issued an executive order to create a strategic reserve of Bitcoin for the US government. He predicts that other world leaders will follow suit and start accumulating BTC as part of their economic strategies.

According to Kiyosaki, the US economy is heading towards bankruptcy, the value of the dollar continues to weaken, and Bitcoin is becoming a more stable alternative. He believes that in the long run, Bitcoin will play an important role in maintaining global economic stability.
