Robert Kiyosaki, author of the best-selling book Rich Dad Poor Dad, issued a warning on October 31 about what he calls the start of a massive global financial collapse. He posted on social media platform X that millions will be wiped out. He urged people to protect themselves by investing in silver, gold, bitcoin, and ethereum.
The warning comes as crypto markets experienced a pullback. Bitcoin fell 3.8% to $110,063 on November 1. Ethereum dropped 3.6% to $3,853, and XRP declined 4.1% to $2.51.

The market decline followed comments from Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell. He hinted that the recent 25-basis-point rate cut could be the last one for 2025. Powell warned the Fed might “wait a cycle” before introducing further easing.
The Dow Jones slipped 0.2% and the S&P 500 remained flat. Markets began pricing in a longer stretch of tight financial conditions. Traders also reacted to a meeting between Donald Trump and China’s Xi Jinping that delivered little concrete progress on trade disputes.
Despite the price drops, institutional demand for crypto remains strong. Bitcoin ETFs recorded $202.48 million in net inflows on October 28. BlackRock, Fidelity, and Ark & 21Shares led the buying, pushing total inflows past $62 billion.
Ethereum ETFs attracted more than $246 million in net inflows. This suggests major financial institutions continue to see long-term value in digital assets. The buying pattern indicates professional investors view the dip as a buying opportunity.
Kiyosaki has been warning about economic collapse for years. His book Rich Dad Poor Dad has remained a best-seller for over two decades. It has been translated into more than 50 languages worldwide.
He believes traditional fiat currencies, particularly the U.S. dollar, are losing purchasing power. Kiyosaki argues that government mismanagement and inflation are weakening these currencies. He says those who invest in gold, silver, and cryptocurrencies will be better protected when markets collapse.
On October 28, Kiyosaki shared a story about showing his Coinbase account to a friend. The account showed several million dollars in bitcoin. His friend focused on recent losses of a few hundred thousand dollars instead of the total value.
Kiyosaki said this highlighted a key mindset difference. While his friend saw loss, he saw long-term opportunity. He wrote that he has millions in bitcoin and thinks it will double in price this year.
He predicts bitcoin could reach as high as $200,000. Kiyosaki argues that emotional intelligence, or EQ, matters more than IQ in finance. He says fear of loss keeps many people from building wealth.
The Rich Dad Poor Dad author believes many educated people stay poor because they fear losing more than they seek success. He says the rich manage both fear and greed better than the poor and middle class.
Trader Jonesy echoed concerns about a potential crash. He cautioned that rate cuts often precede major market crashes. He cited 2000, 2007, and 2020 as examples when markets plunged by as much as 56%.
Bitcoin remains above $108,000 as of November 1, 2025.
