Bitcoin News Today: Kiyosaki to Double Bitcoin Holdings if Price Drops Below $90K Amid Inflation Concerns

Robert Kiyosaki, the author of Rich Dad Poor Dad, has indicated his intent to increase his Bitcoin holdings should the price decline further, signaling a contrarian investment strategy amid ongoing macroeconomic uncertainties. Speaking on July 13, 2025, Kiyosaki highlighted concerns over U.S. debt and Federal Reserve policies as key factors that could negatively impact fiat currencies, including the U.S. dollar [4]. He views Bitcoin as a superior store of value and a hedge against inflation and systemic financial instability, alongside gold and silver. Kiyosaki’s plan is to double his Bitcoin exposure if the price drops below $90,000, which aligns with his belief in the so-called “August Effect,” a period historically associated with market corrections [5].

Bitcoin’s price as of the latest data on August 4, 2025, stands at $114,519.99, according to CoinMarketCap, with a market cap of $2.28 trillion and a dominance of 61.15% in the cryptocurrency market. Despite a 3.83% decline in the past week, the asset has shown a 21.37% increase over the last 90 days, underscoring its volatile nature [5]. The recent dip saw Bitcoin fall below key support levels, with approximately $1 billion in liquidations occurring within 24 hours [5]. Options data shows a put/call ratio of 0.98 and implied volatility at 25%, suggesting a range-bound outlook in the short term [2].

Kiyosaki’s comments have amplified existing retail investor sentiment, with many on social media echoing his views on Bitcoin as a protective asset in a post-Fed financial landscape. However, there is no immediate evidence of significant market shifts linked to his statements. Analysts from the Coincu research team note that Kiyosaki’s influence is more pronounced among retail traders than in the broader institutional or regulatory spheres [5]. They also caution that while Bitcoin may benefit from Kiyosaki’s advocacy, its long-term trajectory is likely shaped by larger economic and regulatory factors, including the U.S. monetary policy and the evolving regulatory environment [5].

Kiyosaki’s strategy reflects historical patterns in Bitcoin investing, where buying during periods of fear and uncertainty has often led to substantial gains. He has previously outlined rules for integrating Bitcoin into investment portfolios, a strategy that underscores his long-term confidence in the asset. Looking ahead, he forecasts Bitcoin could reach $1 million by 2035, a prediction based on macroeconomic trends such as rising U.S. debt [1].

As of now, Bitcoin traders remain cautiously optimistic, with the price stabilizing near $114,000 ahead of potential U.S. Federal Reserve policy updates. The broader market is waiting for clarity on whether further rate cuts are on the horizon, which could provide directional momentum for Bitcoin in the near term [2].
