For Kiyosaki, silver and ETH are valuable because they have uses in industry.
Bitcoin (BTC), unlike ETH, stands out for its immutable monetary policy.
The author of the famous book “Rich Dad, Poor Dad”, Robert Kiyosaki, has once again warned about an imminent economic collapse and has modified his investment suggestions, previously focused mainly on gold, silver and bitcoin (BTC).
Now, Kiyosaki points to silver and ether (ETH), cryptocurrency of the Ethereum network, as the “best” assets in the current context. The statement was made through his account on the social network X, where he also reiterated his bullish vision for gold and bitcoin.
Kiyosaki, known for his criticism of the traditional financial system and fiat currencies, warned that “the biggest crash in world history” will occur this year, 2025. According to its forecast, this event will seriously affect the retirement savings of the generation baby boomer. For this reason, he insisted on his recommendation not to save on “printed assets” that are devalued by inflation.
In his post, the investor stated: “Today I think silver and Ethereum are the best because they are stores of value, but more importantly, they are used in industry and their prices are low.”
Howeverthe inclusion of the Ethereum cryptocurrency in the same group as an asset like bitcoinwhich has a predictable monetary policy, draws attention.
It should be noted that, unlike BTC, whose protocol is immutable and its issuance is limited to 21 million coins, Ethereum has undergone significant changes to its rules of the game. Its consensus algorithm migrated from Proof of Work (PoW) to Proof of Stake (PoS) and its monetary policy is not set in stone, being subject to the decisions of its developers.
This feature of Ethereum and its cryptocurrency ETH contrasts with the immutability of bitcoina key factor for those who value it as “digital gold.”
Kiyosaki concluded his message by urging his followers to study the pros and cons of each asset before investing.
It is worth clarifying that, at the beginning of this year, Kiyosaki stated that the economic crisis would break out in February, something that – as CriptoNoticias analyzed – did not happen (or at least, not in the terms that Kiyosaki anticipated).
