Buzz! Robert Kiyosaki Predicts Bitcoin to Surge to US$750,000

Jakarta, VIVA - Author of the book Rich Dad Poor Dad, Robert Kiyosaki, has shocked the world with his projection that Bitcoin’s price could skyrocket to US$750,000 or approximately Rp 12.71 billion (estimated exchange rate of Rp 16,950 per US dollar). Kiyosaki stated that this price would materialise after the next global financial crisis. He warned that the world is nearing the peak of the biggest bubble in human history. Kiyosaki’s statement emerges amid market conditions already shrouded in uncertainty due to geopolitical conflicts in the Middle East. The war involving the United States (US), Israel, and Iran has caused surges in commodity prices, along with unclear directions in central bank policies. “When the bubble bursts, Bitcoin will hit US$750,000 per coin and Ethereum US$95,000 a year after the crisis,” Kiyosaki said, quoted from Mint, on Monday, 23 March 2026. According to CoinMarketCap, Bitcoin’s price stood at US$70,352.21, experiencing a 2.55 percent increase over the last 24 hours until 19:42 WIB on Monday, 23 March 2026. Meanwhile, Ethereum was traded at US$2,134, strengthening by 2.46 percent. He did not specify exactly when the economic bubble would occur. One thing is certain: Kiyosaki emphasised that the time is near. “The big bubble will burst. I don’t know what event will trigger it. Whatever it is, the time is near. It’s not a question of whether it will happen, but when,” he said. In addition to predicting a sharp rise in crypto assets, Kiyosaki also forecasted that precious metal prices would soar after the economic bubble bursts. He stated that gold could reach US$35,000 per ounce and silver could break through US$200. Kiyosaki’s views reinforce his belief that the global financial system remains highly vulnerable to major shocks. He considers real assets and decentralised currencies to be the primary protectors when the crisis strikes. On the other hand, economist and market observer Peter Schiff offered a different perspective, focusing on short-term market movements, particularly in precious metals. Schiff sees silver entering a phase of significant increase. “Silver has just recorded a major breakout, and the next explosive surge could start at any time. If you’re waiting for a better entry price, the market usually won’t give it to you,” Schiff said.
