Robert Kiyosaki Reacts to Trump’s Tariffs: Bitcoin, Gold, and Silver Could Crash
Rich Dad Poor Dad author Robert Kiyosaki has weighed in on the possible market effects of President Donald Trump’s newly imposed tariffs on imports from Canada, Mexico, and China. These policies have triggered immediate retaliatory measures from the affected countries, intensifying global trade tensions.
Expressing his outlook on the potential market impact, Kiyosaki warned that the tariffs might contribute to declines in bitcoin, gold, and silver prices. He stated on social media platform X on Jan. 31:
Trump tariffs begin: Gold, silver, bitcoin may crash. Good. Will buy more after prices crash.
Viewing gold, silver, and bitcoin as safeguards against financial instability, the well-known author has long encouraged investment in these assets. He has previously urged individuals to purchase BTC before significant price increases occur. Kiyosaki maintains that market downturns create opportunities for investors to acquire valuable assets at lower costs. Reinforcing this belief, he added in his X post: “Crashes mean assets are on sale. Time to get richer.”
Last week, Kiyosaki cited his 2013 book Rich Dad’s Prophecy, which predicted a major stock market crash in February 2025. The famous author predicted that investors would move from stocks and bonds to bitcoin, driving a significant price surge. He encouraged shifting away from traditional currency to crypto, gold, and silver, claiming that even a small BTC investment could generate substantial gains while others face losses.
The acclaimed author has also consistently voiced concerns about the escalating U.S. national debt, which has surpassed $36 trillion. He emphasizes that this mounting debt, increasing by approximately $1 trillion every 100 days, poses a significant threat to the nation’s financial stability. Kiyosaki warns that the government’s reliance on printing money to service this debt devalues the U.S. dollar, leading to inflation and eroding individual wealth. His X post adds:
Real problem is debt … which will only get worse.
