What if the real economic threat is neither inflation nor rates, but a global collapse in liquidity? This is the alert launched by Robert Kiyosaki, author of the best-seller Rich Dad, Poor Dad. In a series of posts on A shortage which, according to him, could trigger a new wave of money printing with unpredictable consequences.
In brief
- Robert Kiyosaki warns of a global cash shortage which he considers to be the real cause of the current crash.
- According to him, this lack of liquidity could trigger a massive printing of money by states, called “The Big Print”.
- Despite the fall in the markets, Kiyosaki says he is not selling his Bitcoin or his gold, convinced of their long-term value.
- He believes that scarce assets like Bitcoin, gold and silver will be the big winners in a global currency crisis.
The specter of a global liquidity crash
In a series of messages published this weekend on
“The generalized bubble is bursting”he declares, before adding: “If all markets collapse, it’s because the world lacks liquidity”. He believes that this thirst for cash, not inflation or high interest rates, is the main driver of the current panic. Despite the correction, he says he is not selling his bitcoin or gold holdings, convinced that the drop is only temporary.
Kiyosaki evokes a scenario of massive monetary response which he calls “the great monetary printing” (The Big Print), inspired by the analyzes of investor Lawrence Lepard. According to this theory, states, faced with growing public debt, would be forced to re-inject enormous amounts of liquidity into the economy, causing an accelerated devaluation of fiat currencies.
He emphasizes: “the great money printing is about to begin…which will make gold, silver, bitcoin and Ethereum more valuable…as fake money collapses”. In this context, he favors rare and decentralized assets, which he considers natural hedges against what he calls “counterfeit money”.
Here is the main points from its position:
- He is not selling his bitcoins or his gold, despite the market decline;
- He says the central problem is a global cash shortage, not the real economy;
- It provides for massive monetary creation by States to absorb debts;
- He considers that assets such as bitcoin (limited to 21 million units), gold and silver will directly benefit from this future monetary devaluation;
- He anticipates a surge in value for cryptos not despite the chaos, but because of it.
Market sentiment: between panic and overconfidence
In a message published just after his analysis of the crash, Kiyosaki renews his attachment to bitcoin in the long term.
“I will buy more bitcoin once the crash is over”he says, indicating that he is waiting for the correction to end to strengthen his position. He reminds his 2.8 million subscribers of the scarcity of BTC: “remember… there are only 21 million Bitcoin”.
Alongside his investment advice, he encourages his community to organize around his educational game “Cash flow” in order to better understand economic dynamics and avoid impulsive decisions, such as panic selling.
The market, for its part, seems to be in a phase of extreme fear. Mister Crypto points out that Bitcoin's Fear and Greed Index has fallen to 16, a level historically associated with strong risk aversion.
However, according to the Santiment analysis platform, this signal should not be taken lightly. The platform warns that when too many traders believe that the market has reached its low point, this often precedes a new decline phase.
