So, let me get this straight. Robert Kiyosaki, the guy who turned a pamphlet-sized book into a global empire, is on Twitter telling his 2.4 million followers that the only thing stopping them from getting rich off Bitcoin is their own emotional weakness. He’s out here preaching about “Emotional Intelligence” and calling people who sell “losers,” part of a larger prediction where Robert Kiyosaki Predicts Bitcoin to Hit $200,000 in 2025 Says “Losers Lose”.
And this sermon comes at the exact same time that on-chain data shows Long-term holders sell 325,600 Bitcoin in sharpest monthly drawdown since July 2025.
You see the problem here? One group is talking. The other is walking.
The Gospel of "EQ"
Kiyosaki’s whole new bit is that IQ and education don’t matter in crypto. It’s all about EQ. If you see your portfolio drop and feel that knot in your stomach, you’re a “loser.” If you watch it crater and just smile, serenely buying more, you’ve got high EQ and are destined for a Lambo. He tells this cute little story about a friend who saw the red in his portfolio, focusing on a temporary loss instead of the millions in overall gains. “The poor and middle class are poor because they fear losing more than they desire winning,” he writes.
This is just brilliant. No, seriously, it’s a masterclass in guru psychology. It’s a completely unfalsifiable, heads-I-win-tails-you-lose argument. If Bitcoin pumps to his predicted $200,000, he’s a prophet who understood the power of conviction. If it dumps back to $20,000, it’s not because his prediction was wrong; it’s because you failed the “character test.” You were a loser with low EQ who couldn’t handle the volatility. His advice is bulletproof, and any failure is entirely your own.
It’s the same schtick every single financial guru pulls. They create a system where their ego is protected, and the blame is always outsourced to the follower. It ain't about finance; it's about creating a belief system. A narrative that keeps you holding the bag, feeling like you’re part of some enlightened tribe while the real players operate on a completely different set of rules.
This isn't financial advice. No, 'advice' doesn't cover it—this is a five-alarm psychological trap. He’s selling you an identity—the stoic, high-EQ investor—and the price of admission is to never, ever question the premise. But what if the premise is flawed? What if taking profits isn't being a "loser," but just being... smart?
Follow the Money, Not the Mantra
While Kiyosaki is tweeting, the market is moving. And it’s not moving based on anyone’s feelings. Bitcoin is treading water around $113,000 because the entire financial world is holding its breath for the Fed. Traders are expecting a rate cut, but liquidity is tightening up, and there are whispers of stress in the regional banks again. This is the boring, unsexy reality that actually drives prices. It's not a test of your soul; it's a complex dance of institutional capital flows, macroeconomic policy, and risk management.
And guess who understands this perfectly? The so-called “veteran investors.” The long-term holders. The very people you’d think have the highest EQ are the ones who just orchestrated the sharpest monthly sell-off since July of last year. They’re taking chips off the table.
Kiyosaki’s philosophy is a bit like a general standing on a hill, telling his soldiers that true courage is charging directly into the machine-gun nest, promising them eternal glory. Meanwhile, he and his top lieutenants are quietly packing up the camp treasury and slipping out the back. They’re not afraid; they’re just pragmatic. They know a losing fight when they see one, or at least a risky one.
It’s the same playbook we see everywhere, from tech CEOs preaching world-changing missions while dumping their stock options, to real estate gurus selling seminars on wealth creation funded by, well, selling seminars. The narrative is for you. The profit is for them. And offcourse, if you point this out, you’re just a cynical hater who doesn’t “get it.”
Maybe I am just cynical. But when the story is this simple and the stakes are this high, my gut tells me the game is more complicated than I'm being told. Are these long-term sellers really just low-EQ losers overcome by fear? Or are they high-IQ players who can read a macro chart and have decided that $113,000 in the hand is worth more than a guru’s promise of $200,000 in the bush?
Don't Drink the Kool-Aid
Look, maybe Bitcoin hits $200,000. Maybe it hits a million. I have no idea, and neither does Robert Kiyosaki. But his framework of "EQ" and "losers" is a dangerous distraction. It’s designed to shame you for making rational financial decisions, like taking profits after a massive run-up, especially ahead of a major Fed decision. It serves one purpose: to create a permanent base of buyers who will absorb the selling pressure from the people who got in way earlier and cheaper than you ever will. Don't fall for it. Stop listening to the sermons and start watching the money. Right now, a hell of a lot of it is heading for the exit.
