Robert Kiyosaki pushes back against critics questioning his bitcoin buying claims, framing the dispute around price conviction over timing as his past posts reveal a pattern of purchasing during major market rallies.
Kiyosaki Defends Bitcoin Claims as Past Posts Fuel Debate
Robert Kiyosaki, author of the best-selling book Rich Dad Poor Dad, shared on social media platform X on Feb. 7 remarks responding to accusations about his bitcoin purchase claims, as critics questioned the timing and accuracy of his stated $6,000 buying level.
The famous author claimed he bought bitcoin the last time it traded near $6,000, but his own prior posts on X appear to suggest a very different buying history, a discrepancy that multiple X users have pointed out in replies highlighting inconsistencies across his earlier statements.
“To the person who said I was lying that I bought bitcoin at $6,000. I know my strike price, not the date he falsely accuses me of—the date I bought bitcoin on,” Kiyosaki responded. The acclaimed author framed the dispute as an issue of personal credibility rather than transaction timing and challenged the motivation of the criticism, asking: “Why would he care what date I bought it on? Does he have a personal agenda for calling me a liar?” He further clarified his approach to accumulation:
“If bitcoin hits $6,000 again I will buy more… again. I will not care about the date.”
The remarks underscored his long-standing assertion that price levels, not calendars, guide his investment decisions. However, he did not directly address accusations that he also bought BTC at significantly higher prices, despite those transactions being reflected in his earlier posts.
A review of Kiyosaki’s earlier posts outlines a pattern that appears inconsistent with claims of buying primarily at low price thresholds. On Jan. 23, he wrote: “I just keep buying more gold, silver, bitcoin, and ethereum and get richer.” In June, with bitcoin trading above $107,000, he posted: “Bought another bitcoin today.” As prices continued rising in July, he added: “ Bitcoin over $117K a coin. Going to buy one more bitcoin asap.” In a separate message, the author explained: “Another Rich Dad lesson: ‘Pigs get fat. Hogs get slaughtered.’ I state this lesson because I bought my latest bitcoin at $110K. I am now in position for what Raoul Pal calls ‘the Banana Zone.’”

Those statements collectively align with repeated buying during market rallies rather than adherence to low-price caps. In his latest post, Kiyosaki also wrote, “I am now preparing to acquire more gold.” He challenged critics, asking: “I want to know how many bitcoin, gold, silver, or ethereum he or she owns. How many rental units? How many oil wells?” The renowned author concluded with advice to followers:
“My advice to you following this text… stay away from people who are more interested in date of acquisition than the value and price of the asset.”
