Robert Kiyosaki, author of the best-selling book Rich Dad Poor Dad, has once again shared his reasoning behind investing in bitcoin while making it clear why most other cryptocurrencies fail to gain his interest. His book has remained a global bestseller, translated into dozens of languages, and continues to shape the financial mindset of readers around the world.

Kiyosaki shared on social media platform X on May 24:

I invest in Bitcoin because [it] is a network. Most cryptos are not … I do not invest in shit coins without networks, because they violate Metcalfe’s Law.

For the renowned author, bitcoin stands apart because it obeys what he calls the “laws of money,” specifically referencing Metcalfe’s Law and Gresham’s Law. Metcalfe’s Law states that the value of a network increases with the number of its users. Kiyosaki believes bitcoin’s strength lies in its massive, decentralized network—unlike most other cryptocurrencies, which he says lack meaningful adoption and utility. He compares successful networks like Fedex and McDonald’s to bitcoin, noting that their value comes from being part of a system, not isolated efforts. Other cryptocurrencies, which he often refers to as “shit coins,” do not meet this standard and are therefore not worthy of investment.

He also references Gresham’s Law, which claims that bad money drives out good money. Kiyosaki applies this to fiat currencies, especially the U.S. dollar, which he argues is “fake money.” He emphasized this in his post by stating:

I do not save U.S. dollars because the U.S. dollar violates Gresham’s Law.

Kiyosaki has long warned about the dangers of fiat currencies, government spending, and a potential collapse of the U.S. economy. His solution has remained consistent: invest in assets that hold real value. For him, that means accumulating gold, silver, and bitcoin—because, as he puts it, they obey the laws that lead to wealth, not poverty.
