Robert Kiyosaki on selling Bitcoin and debt risks
Amid the recent downturn in Bitcoin and precious metals, investor Robert Kiyosaki revealed that he sold some of his Bitcoin and gold holdings.
He shared on X that he previously stopped buying silver at $60, Bitcoin at $6,000, and gold at $300.
Kiyosaki added that although he has suspended his purchases of gold and Bitcoin, he plans to wait for lower price levels before re-entering the market.
“Your profit is made when you buy…not when you sell,” he wrote, emphasizing a long-term investment strategy.
Kiyosaki also expressed concerns about the U.S. economy, as the national debt tops $38 trillion. He criticized the Federal Reserve, political leaders and the banking system, warning of potentially difficult economic conditions ahead.
Robert Kiyosaki has spent the last year advocating for investments in Bitcoin, gold and silver. While silver rebounded to $121 in late January 2026, it has since corrected more than 45% from its peak in just one week.
The impact was also felt across the broader crypto market, which lost around $750 billion in market capitalization over the same period. On the weekly chart, Bitcoin is down 22%, trading around the $64,500 level.
