The importance of his statements can be anchored in Kiyosaki's recent activity in the Bitcoin market, where he announced the acquisition of 10 more bitcoins in anticipation of April's “halving” event, a critical moment that promises to halve the reward per block mined, potentially further valuing the digital currency.

He advocates for a diversified portfolio that includes “real currencies” of gold, silver and Bitcoin, rather than relying on “fake fiat dollars,” a position that echoes his broader critique of the current financial system.
