Robert Kiyosaki on Bitcoin Selling and Debt Risks

Amid the recent downturn in Bitcoin and precious metals, investor Robert Kiyosaki revealed that he has sold portions of his Bitcoin and gold holdings.

He shared on X that he previously stopped buying silver at $60, Bitcoin at $6,000, and gold at $300.

Kiyosaki added that, although he has paused further purchases of gold and Bitcoin, he plans to wait for lower price levels before re-entering the market.

“Your profit is made when you buy… not when you sell,” he wrote, emphasizing a long-term investment strategy.

Kiyosaki also expressed concerns about the US economy as the national debt surpasses $38 trillion. He criticized the Federal Reserve, political leaders, and the banking system, warning of potentially difficult economic conditions ahead.

Robert Kiyosaki has spent the past year advocating for investments in Bitcoin, gold, and silver. While silver rallied to $121 by the end of January 2026, it has since corrected more than 45% from its peak in just a week.

The impact has also been felt across the broader crypto market, which lost approximately $750 billion in market capitalization over the same period. On the weekly chart, Bitcoin has declined 22%, trading around the $64,500 level.

According to Coinglass data, the 24-hour liquidations across the crypto market have now soared to $2.6 billion. More than $2.17 billion has been wiped out of long positions, with Bitcoin’s price alone contributing $1.35 billion of this total.
