Robert Kiyosaki is forecasting ethereum’s price could skyrocket from current levels, comparing today’s $4,000 range to bitcoin’s early days at the same mark, and positioning ETH as a potential generational wealth-building opportunity.
Robert Kiyosaki Hails Ethereum as the Next Big Wealth Engine
Robert Kiyosaki, the famed investor and author of Rich Dad Poor Dad, has turned increasingly bullish on ethereum, predicting that ETH’s current price levels could be the foundation for major long-term gains. His iconic personal finance book has been a global phenomenon for more than two decades, translated into over 50 languages and selling tens of millions of copies worldwide.
While he has long been one of the most vocal advocates for bitcoin, often calling it “real money” and a hedge against the collapse of fiat currencies, Kiyosaki has more recently been speaking more frequently and more bullishly about ether, suggesting it could follow a trajectory similar to bitcoin’s early explosive rise. “Remember: For years, I have been saying save gold, silver, bitcoin, and recently ethereum,” he stated earlier this month. He now views both assets as essential parts of the future financial landscape. On Oct. 25, the best-selling author shared his outlook on social media platform X, writing:
People who acquire ethereum today at $4,000 will be like the rich who invested in bitcoin when it was $4,000. Old thinkers will be left behind as the gap becomes the Grand Canyon.
His comparison underscores a growing conviction that ethereum could be a generational investment opportunity. The acclaimed author believes it combines the long-term value potential of bitcoin with practical use cases in decentralized finance and digital infrastructure. At the time of writing, ETH is trading at $4,168.93.
On Oct. 17, Kiyosaki reiterated his call to move away from government-backed currencies, emphasizing:
Please save real money… gold, silver, bitcoin, ethereum… not fake government money.
He also praised ethereum’s broader utility alongside silver, stating: “Today I believe silver and ethereum are the best because they are stores of value… but more importantly… used in industry… and prices are low.” In recent posts, Kiyosaki confirmed he is continuing to build his portfolio, writing: “Adding to my gold, silver, bitcoin, and ethereum stack.” He also recently said: “Silver and ethereum hot, hot, hot.”
While Kiyosaki believes ETH’s price could follow BTC’s, many disagree. Bitcoin is viewed as digital gold, with a fixed supply of 21 million coins. Ethereum, by contrast, is a programmable platform for smart contracts and decentralized applications, with broader functionality. ETH’s supply is also dynamic, unlike BTC’s capped limit. These fundamental differences in design and monetary policy suggest ETH’s value is not necessarily tied to BTC’s trajectory.
