Veteran investor Robert Kiyosaki has sounded a stark warning for markets that have just seen Bitcoin hit a fresh all‑time high of $123,000.

According to Kiyosaki, long‑running bubbles in the US economy are primed to burst, and Bitcoin could slide right along with stocks and bonds.

The cryptocurrency is already off its peak, trading past the $118,000 mark after profit‑taking by long‑term holders.

Major Debt And Sticky Inflation

Based on reports, the US national debt has climbed to over $36 trillion, a level few would have imagined a decade ago. At the same time, June’s Consumer Price Index shows inflation isn’t cooling as fast as hoped.

Those figures have left many investors on edge. Kiyosaki, who has championed Bitcoin as a hedge against currency weakness, believes these pressures will trigger a broad market pullback.

He warned that gold, silver and Bitcoin may see sharp corrections when the wider “bubbles” finally burst. Still, he made it clear he views any drop as a chance to buy more.

BUBBLES are about to start BUSTING.

When bubbles bust odds are gold, silver, and Bitcoin will bust too.

Good news.

If prices of gold, silver, and Bitcoin crash…. I will be buying.

Take care.

Whales Move To Exchanges

On‑chain data tell a similar story of caution. According to Glassnode, the 7‑day simple moving average of whale‑to‑exchange transfers is approaching 12,000 BTC—the highest level seen in 2025 so far.

That surge mirrors activity from November 24, 2024, when large holders began shifting coins onto trading platforms to lock in gains. Bitcoin has already climbed over 50% since its April lows, so some pullback was almost inevitable. Miners have also started moving coins, suggesting they too are taking profits.

Firms Double Down On Bitcoin

Institutional appetite remains strong, even amid talk of a crash. Twenty‑one firms added roughly $810 million of Bitcoin to their balance sheets last week alone as part of their treasury plans.

Spot Bitcoin ETFs are still drawing steady inflows, offering a regulated path for investors to gain exposure. Those continued purchases could soften the blow if a bigger sell‑off takes hold.

Market observers see a tug‑of‑war playing out. On one side, big holders are cashing in after a historic rally. On the other, companies and funds are piling in, betting that any dip will be short‑lived.

Short‑term traders may try to ride the volatility. Long‑term backers, like Kiyosaki, are eyeing deeper discounts before they pull the trigger on new buys.

The coming weeks could test Bitcoin’s resilience. If debt concerns and stubborn inflation dominate headlines, volatility may spike. Yet the ongoing institutional support and Kiyosaki’s buy‑the‑dip stance hint that any slide could set the stage for a fresh rally.

They say journalists never truly clock out. But for Christian, that's not just a metaphor, it's a lifestyle. By day, he navigates the ever-shifting tides of the cryptocurrency market, wielding words like a seasoned editor and crafting articles that decipher the jargon for the masses. When the PC goes on hibernate mode, however, his pursuits take a more mechanical (and sometimes philosophical) turn.

Christian's journey with the written word began long before the age of Bitcoin. In the hallowed halls of academia, he honed his craft as a feature writer for his college paper. This early love for storytelling paved the way for a successful stint as an editor at a data engineering firm, where his first-month essay win funded a months-long supply of doggie and kitty treats – a testament to his dedication to his furry companions (more on that later).

Christian then roamed the world of journalism, working at newspapers in Canada and even South Korea. He finally settled down at a local news giant in his hometown in the Philippines for a decade, becoming a total news junkie. But then, something new caught his eye: cryptocurrency. It was like a treasure hunt mixed with storytelling - right up his alley!

So, he landed a killer gig at NewsBTC, where he's one of the go-to guys for all things crypto. He breaks down this confusing stuff into bite-sized pieces, making it easy for anyone to understand (he salutes his management team for teaching him this skill).

Think Christian's all work and no play? Not a chance! When he's not at his computer, you'll find him indulging his passion for motorbikes. A true gearhead, Christian loves tinkering with his bike and savoring the joy of the open road on his 320-cc Yamaha R3. Once a speed demon who hit 120mph (a feat he vowed never to repeat), he now prefers leisurely rides along the coast, enjoying the wind in his thinning hair.

Speaking of chill, Christian's got a crew of furry friends waiting for him at home. Two cats and a dog. He swears cats are way smarter than dogs (sorry, Grizzly), but he adores them all anyway. Apparently, watching his pets just chillin’ helps him analyze and write meticulously formatted articles even better.

Here's the thing about this guy: He works a lot, but he keeps himself fueled by enough coffee to make it through the day - and some seriously delicious (Filipino) food. He says a delectable meal is the secret ingredient to a killer article. And after a long day of crypto crusading, he unwinds with some rum (mixed with milk) while watching slapstick movies.

Looking ahead, Christian sees a bright future with NewsBTC. He says he sees himself privileged to be part of an awesome organization, sharing his expertise and passion with a community he values, and fellow editors - and bosses - he deeply respects.

So, the next time you tread into the world of cryptocurrency, remember the man behind the words – the crypto crusader, the grease monkey, and the feline philosopher, all rolled into one.
