Bobby K's BTC Poll Flops
Financial guru and Rich Dad Poor Dad author, Robert Kiyosaki, took to Twitter last weekend with a poll about Bitcoin's role in long-term wealth creation. To his disappointment, the poll attracted far less attention than anticipated, leading him to label it a "silent backlash" from the investment community.
Kiyosaki tweeted about big corporations like McDonald's and Burger King struggling due to rising inflation, blaming high food prices for causing hardship among low-income families[1]. He then thanked his followers for investing in gold, silver, and Bitcoin, and posed a question seeking to encourage thoughtful engagement: "Poor people stay poor... because they keep buying more and more of what they don't need... and not enough of what they really need." He was frustrated that just 1,000 out of his 73,000 followers chose to engage with the tweet[2].
Kiyosaki's BTC Bullish Prediction for 2025
Earlier this year, Kiyosaki predicted that Bitcoin could reach as high as $200,000 by the end of 2025[3]. He believes that the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence will fuel Bitcoin's meteoric rise in the coming years, making it a lucrative investment opportunity[3].
