Robert Kiyosaki says Trump order makes Bitcoin more valuable
Amid major political upheaval in the United States, Robert Kiyosaki, author of the best-selling personal finance book ‘Rich Dad Poor Dad,’ has opined that Bitcoin (BTC) has got a major boost from Washington, D.C. through President Donald Trump’s recent executive order.
As a reminder, Trump signed an executive order in August, titled ‘Democratizing Access to Alternative Investments for 401(k) Investors,’ which allows retirement accounts to include alternative assets like real estate, private equity, precious metals, and crypto under the 401(k) tax umbrella.
Bitcoin in the spotlight
For Kiyosaki, the implications are clear. Giving retirement savers access to Bitcoin is a great thing in the long run, especially for the value of the flagship decentralized finance (DeFi) asset. As he highlighted in an X post on September 17:
“I am happy because Trump’s new XO treats investors like adults and makes my gold, silver, and Bitcoin more valuable.”
Indeed, the finance educator, who has long been a vocal critic of traditional investment vehicles like mutual funds and exchange-traded funds (ETFs), has called them tools for “losers.” By contrast, he sees BTC, gold, and silver as the assets of the future, inflation hedges, and protection against what he frequently describes as a fragile and over-indebted financial system.
Still, Kiyosaki struck a note of caution for less-experienced investors. He stressed that, while the order opens the door for “smarter, more sophisticated investors,” it could be risky for “mom and pop” savers who aren’t willing to study or do their homework. In his words, alternative assets demand education and responsibility.
Earlier, the ‘Rich Dad Poor Dad’ author warned about the growing instability across global markets, including French unrest, economic frailty in Germany, and crumbling faith in government bonds across Europe and beyond, advising everyone to buy gold, silver, and Bitcoin as the only safe havens.
