Amid growing worries about potential hyperinflation, author and financial commentator Robert Kiyosaki has reiterated his support for Bitcoin as a hedge against economic uncertainty. Kiyosaki, known for his book "Rich Dad Poor Dad," has been vocal about the value of decentralized currencies, particularly in times when traditional economic structures face challenges.

Recently, Kiyosaki underscored Bitcoin's importance as "People's money," ranking it alongside essential commodities such as food and stable assets like firearms, gold, and silver. His endorsement comes despite his earlier skepticism regarding the future of Bitcoin and the U.S. Dollar, especially after Citibank introduced its blockchain-based tokens for institutional transactions in September.

In a past prediction, Kiyosaki suggested that Bitcoin could climb to $100,000 by April. Although this milestone has not been reached, Bitcoin has experienced a modest uptick in its value, currently trading at around $37,600.

This continued advocacy for Bitcoin aligns with Kiyosaki's broader investment philosophy that favors assets outside the control of traditional financial systems and governments. His stance reflects a sentiment shared by many cryptocurrency enthusiasts who see decentralized digital currencies as a means to preserve wealth in turbulent economic times.
