Robert Kiyosaki, bestselling author of “Rich Dad Poor Dad,” has made a bold prediction that Bitcoin could reach between $500,000 and $1 million amid what he describes as the beginning of hyperinflation in the United States. The controversial financial commentator’s forecast comes as he claims the Federal Reserve has resorted to purchasing its own debt with “fake money.”
“The End is Here”
On Wednesday, Robert Kiyosaki sounded the alarm over what he described as a failed U.S. bond auction, claiming that demand was so weak the Federal Reserve had to step in and purchase $50 billion worth of Treasuries using what he called “fake money.” He portrayed the event as a symbolic collapse of confidence in the U.S. financial system, a party no one showed up to.
Declaring that the era of easy money and blind trust in government debt is over, Kiyosaki warned that hyperinflation is no longer a distant threat but an unfolding reality. He predicted devastating consequences for millions of Americans across generations, while reaffirming his belief that hard assets will offer a lifeline. According to his projections, gold could surge to $25,000, silver to $70, and Bitcoin could skyrocket to anywhere between $500,000 and $1 million.
THE END is HERE:
WHAT if you threw a party and no one showed up?
That is what happened yesterday.
The Fed held an auction for US Bonds and no one showed up.
So the Fed quietly bought $50 billion of its own fake money with fake money.
The party is over. Hyperinflation is…

A Pattern of Warnings
This latest prediction follows several similar warnings from Kiyosaki in recent days. Just a day earlier on Tuesday, he criticized financial planners for promoting U.S. bonds as safe investments, calling it a “Big F’n Lie” and comparing trust in such instruments to leaving children with a “convicted pedophile.”
“Since 1971 the FED and US Treasury have been printing fake fiat money, a.k.a US Bonds covering up for criminal enterprises,” Kiyosaki claimed, referencing efforts by former President Trump and Elon Musk to expose what he termed “The Swamp.”
On Saturday, Kiyosaki had predicted Bitcoin would climb to $250,000 by the end of 2025, encouraging his followers to continue “HODLing” (holding onto their crypto assets) and attributing the expected value increase to what he termed the collapse of the “Marxist Central Bank system.”
Experts Forecast Major Bitcoin Rally
Kiyosaki isn’t alone in his bullish outlook on Bitcoin. Arthur Hayes, CIO of Malstrom and co-founder of BitMEX, recently shared his market perspective at the TOKEN2049 conference in Dubai.
In an interview published Tuesday, Hayes predicted Bitcoin could approach $200,000 by the third quarter of 2025. Unlike many analysts who focus on Federal Reserve policies, Hayes emphasized the role of the Treasury Department in the current market dynamics.
“I think we reached a bottom on April 9th of earlier this month when Trump and his team pivoted from this maximalist tariff position,” Hayes explained. He argued that many investors are missing the rally because they’re fixated on traditional indicators like Federal Reserve rate cuts.
According to Hayes, the Treasury Department’s issuance policies are now more influential than Fed actions in driving asset values. Hayes also noted that institutional investors are primarily entering the crypto market through Bitcoin ETFs rather than altcoins, predicting that altcoin investment would follow once Bitcoin establishes new price heights and creates a “wealth effect” among investors.
Meanwhile, analyst Gert Van Lagen has an even more ambitious price target, suggesting Bitcoin could reach between $320,000 and $360,000 based on Wyckoff Method technical analysis. However, Van Lagen’s analysis also warns of a potential sharp correction to around $10,000 following such a peak.
