The author of Rich Dad Poor Dad, Robert Kiyosaki, has long supported Bitcoin (BTC) and why it will help investors get rich. In one of his posts, the famed author and BTC proponent provides his realistic target for Bitcoin price that ranges from $180k to $200k. BTC price trades at $94k today and needs to roughly double from here to reach this target. In another tweet, Kiyosaki explains that the US economy will crash if other countries stop buying US bonds or treasuries. This statement further connects this downfall of the US economy and dollar to the value moving to hard assets, including Gold, Silver and Bitcoin.
Robert Kiyosaki Explains How a US Economic Crash Could Propel BTC Price to $200k
The Rich Dad Poor Dad author Robert Kiyosaki noted in an X post on April 20, 2025, that Bitcoin (BTC) price will go to $180k to $200k. Although BTC was trading at $84k at the time, it has risen more than $10,000 in just nine days, edging closer to its target. While some investors might consider this BTC price target far-fetched, the popular author explained the reason behind his target a few months ago.
On February 27, 2025, Kiyosaki noted that the “US Bonds are a joke.” He added,
“When countries like Japan and China stop buying our bonds….inflation will go through the roof….our economy and the US dollar will crash.”
This forecast from the author is slowly coming true as the US dollar index (DXY) is down 11% in the 100 days. Trump’s tariff war caused major sell-off in the US stock markets. However, China’s stock market is on an uptrend again, and Gold has embarked on one of the best rallies in the past few years. Although Bitcoin lagged, its price has shot up nearly 30% in the past two weeks or so.
If Trump’s tariffs do not come back down, it could trigger a US bond sell-off that could further weaken the US dollar and trigger a widespread sell-off in the stock market. In such a case, Bitcoin, considered as a hard asset and gold 2.0, could enjoy capital inflows and a potential bull run.
So, it is not that hard to imagine a Bitcoin price prediction with a target of $180k or $200k. Investors should note that if the US dollar continues to worsen and big investors start to lose confidence in Fed, it could cause hard assets to explode. In such a case, its not a matter if, but when will Bitcoin head to new highs.
Where’s Bitcoin Heading Next?
Moreover, the spot Bitcoin ETFs have unusually high demand. In just eight days, the 3.5 billion inflows were for BTC from US investors, which adds more value to why buying BTC is a good idea and the worsening condition of US could benefit investors.
The long-term outlook of Bitcoin remains extremely bullish with Energy Value of BTC price hovering around $130k. Although Bitcoin’s value today is 40% lower, there is a good chance that bulls push this hard asset higher.
