U.Today - Vocal Bitcoin supporter, investor and financial guru , also well known for his popular book “Rich Dad Poor Dad,” has published a tweet to make another gloomy market prediction.

He also revealed how much Bitcoin he purchased after the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission finally gave a green light to Bitcoin spot ETFs.

Kiyosaki’s doom prediction; here’s how much BTC he buys

If the U.S. dollar collapses, Kiyosaki wrote, the U.S. is likely to fall into hyperinflation, he believes.

Kiyosaki has been advocating the world’s flagship cryptocurrency, Bitcoin, over the past few years. He has been making bullish predictions since 2020, after the pandemic started and the U.S. government began to print enormous amounts of U.S. dollars out of thin air.

He has also tweeted from time to time that he was buying more Bitcoin. In today’s tweet, he mentioned that and revealed that he had purchased five more Bitcoins, adding them to his stash. Five Bitcoins are evaluated at $231,291 at the time of this writing.

Besides, his purchase likely took place after the SEC announced its regulatory decision on spot-based Bitcoin exchange-traded funds: approval.

While waiting for the decision, they had prepared to launch their spot ETFs based on Bitcoin soon and reduced their management fees on certain conditions to make their products attractive to customers.

A day before, SEC Chairman Gary Gensler announced that the SEC Twitter account had been compromised for less than one hour, thus dissolving the message posted by hackers that the ETF had been approved. The Bitcoin price first went up and then plunged. However, some in the Bitcoin community, including Anthony Scaramucci, did not believe Gensler, assuming that an SEC employee had just jumped the gun.

Idiotic. All the ETF traders already knew months in advance they needed to stock up for enabling their BTC ETF's. That's the real reason why BTC went skyrocketing recently. Now the next probable thing, is that regular consumers use these ETF's to go long on BTC. As anticipated. Then the next probable thing is that BTC goes down, because there is no upward need (the ETF's have pre-loaded) anymore and it is overvalued. So BTC goes down. The ETF's can also make money that way. Investors go long on the ETF, the trading houses sell their huge stock of BTC and the ETF goes down with the BTC price. And only when the ETF's feel they made enough profit out of it, they will reverse the cycle and start re-buying BTC and only slowly will investors dare to go back into the ETF. Anyhow, next month: BTC dropping.
Good call. I couldnt have said it better myself. Overall i think its a strong 2-3 great invest with huge upside, unless tbe idiots stay in washington that we have now and the world collapses
