At press time on April 21, Bitcoin (BTC) was changing hands at a price of $87,340. A 3.46% surge in Bitcoin price in the last 24 hours has seen the flagship digital asset add over $3,000 in value overnight.
Amidst this sharp move to the upside, personal finance guru Robert Kiyosaki, and perennial BTC bull, has set a new price prediction for the cryptocurrency for the end of 2025. The ‘Rich Dad Poor Dad’ author believes that Bitcoin’s price could reach $180,000 to $200,000 by the end of the year, per an April 20 X post.
“BITCOIN is $84k today. Strongly believe Bitcoin will reach $180k to $200k in 2025. What do you think?”
With that being said, past performance is no guarantee of future results. As a highly speculative asset, Bitcoin could very well spearhead a crash if a recession occurs. In addition, while adoption by financial institutions and state actors appears to be a straightforward bullish signal at first, it exposes the cryptocurrency to geopolitical risks.
Once everything is said and done, Kiyosaki’s Bitcoin price prediction, although plausible, seems to rely on a ‘best-case scenario’, in which neither a recession nor a market crash occurs in the next 10 years — a prospect that is looking increasingly unlikely day by day.
