Robert Kiyosaki, the investor and author of Rich Dad, Poor Dad, recently offered a bold forecast for Bitcoin’s long-term trajectory. According to an April 18 post on X, Kiyosaki expects the leading cryptocurrency to soar past $1 million per coin by the year 2035.

Kiyosaki’s remarks come at a time when fears about rising debt and economic instability are widespread. In his X post, Kiyosaki expressed sadness over the state of the U.S. economy, adding that it may be heading for a greater depression.

"MAKES ME SAD: In 2025 credit card debt is at all-time highs. US debt is at all-time highs. Unemployment is rising. 401 k’s are losing. Pensions are being stolen. USA may be heading for a GREATER DEPRESSION.I get sad because as I stated in an earlier X…Tweet….I warned..."

Earlier this year, Kiyosaki shared his prediction that Bitcoin could reach $1 million by 2030, and those who invest in physical assets like gold, silver, and Bitcoin will emerge as 'survivors.'

"I see 🏈,🏀,⚾,⚽ & NASCAR fans going broke. Told them in 2019. Buy BTC at $6,000. Now BTC at $60,000 & still no one buying. I get sad. I'm a survivor. My dad taught me how to survive bad times. Good times make good bankers. Bad times make good survivors. I'm a survivor & I prefer bad times," he said.

Kiyosaki’s belief in the long-term value of Bitcoin is based on its limited supply and increasing demand. As more people and institutions turn to alternative assets for protection against inflation and fiat currency weakness, the price of Bitcoin is likely to rise accordingly.

Kiyosaki’s remarks follow a string of other high-profile figures who have shared their predictions for Bitcoin to hit $1 million in the coming years. In May 2024, Jack Dorsey, the co-founder of Twitter, shared his strong belief that Bitcoin could hit $1 million by 2030. He also pointed out that the value could grow even further if the current demand continues to rise.

“I believe it (Bitcoin) could hit $1M by 2030. It could go higher if the rate of adoption continues to accelerate. It's simple math. If we get 100M families to use Bitcoin around the world, it could easily trade at $1M per coin.”

Dorsey's optimistic prediction is based on his belief in the fundamental value of Bitcoin as a decentralized and censorship-resistant currency. He has been a vocal supporter of the cryptocurrency for many years, and his remarks come amid a broader interest in Bitcoin among institutional investors and governments.

Echoing similar sentiment, Blockstream CEO Adam Back said the cryptocurrency could hit $1 million, especially if the U.S. government, under a future Trump administration, were to begin direct purchases of BTC from the market.

"If Trump gets re-elected in 2024 and they decide to do a BTC reserve and begin buying on market direct like they do with bonds, I think BTC could hit $1M by 2028."

If Trump were to resume his 2020 campaign promise of buying U.S. equities to support the market, as opposed to cutting taxes, it would be a "huge bullish factor" for Bitcoin, Back added.

Eric Trump, addressing the Bitcoin MENA event in Abu Dhabi, emphasized Bitcoin’s scarcity as a key factor that might propel the digital asset to a value of $1 million.

Ark Invest CEO Cathie Wood predicted that it could touch $1.5 million by the end of the decade. The growing number of notable voices reinforcing this long-term value projection reflects an expanding confidence in BTC as a strategic hedge.

Bitcoin Struggles to Break $86K Resistance

Currently, the cryptocurrency trades at $85,168, showing little momentum to break above the $86,000 barrier. Since reaching a new high in late January, the cryptocurrency has undergone a 21% correction, largely attributed to global trade tariff tensions that shifted investor interest toward safer assets.

In early April, the cryptocurrency began to recover as trading pressures eased and negotiations advanced. However, it continues to stay within the $84,000 to $86,000 range. Market analyst Daan Crypto Trades identifies three key resistance levels within this zone. The first resistance is a diagonal downtrend line, and a breakout above it could signal a potential recovery.
