Robert Kiyosaki dropped a February 6th post claiming he stopped buying Bitcoin at $6,000, gold at $300, and silver at $60—statements that immediately sparked controversy when X community notes pointed out he claimed as recently as January 22, 2026, that he was "still buying" all three assets when Bitcoin traded near $90,000, silver at $96, and gold at $4,900.
The contradictions run deeper. In July 2025, Kiyosaki posted he was buying "one more Bitcoin" when
$BTC traded around $117,000, writing enthusiastically about how easy it had become to get rich. Now he's saying he hasn't bought Bitcoin since it was $6,000—roughly five years ago. Either his timeline is wildly incorrect, or he's been publicly advocating purchases he wasn't actually making himself.
What stood out to me wasn't just the inconsistency but the timing. This admission came right as Bitcoin crashed below $65,000 and his favored portfolio—Bitcoin, Ethereum, gold, and silver—all declined sharply from recent highs. Bitcoin erased all gains since 2024, Ethereum fell to $1,870, and silver corrected 45% from its January peak. Suddenly, the narrative shifted from "buy no matter what" to "waiting patiently for new bottoms."
Kiyosaki's new positioning claims he'll buy silver near $74 and gold around $4,000, both significantly below current prices. His core message—that U.S. debt at $38 trillion ($250 trillion including unfunded liabilities) is the bigger problem—remains consistent. But the credibility gap between his recent "still buying" claims and his admission he hasn't bought Bitcoin in years undermines trust in whether his public advice reflects his actual strategy or just engagement farming.
