American businessman and author of the acclaimed book “Rich Dad Poor Dad,” Robert Kiyosaki, urged investors to focus on silver and Ethereum, asserting that these two financial assets represent the best investment opportunities at present.
Kiyosaki wrote on his X (formerly Twitter) account:
Today I believe that silver and Ethereum are the best, not only because they are stores of value, but also because they are used in industry and their prices are low.
Kiyosaki added:
Consider the pros and cons of each from the perspectives of both proponents and opponents, then make wise financial decisions. This way, you can improve your financial intelligence and increase your wealth.
In his book, “Rich Dad’s Prophecy,” Kiyosaki predicted a major economic collapse this year, warning that the pensions of the baby boomer generation could be severely impacted, and that many of them could face significant financial difficulties.
Kiyosaki emphasized that traditional savers are losing out to inflation, highlighting the importance of investing in real assets such as gold, silver, Bitcoin, and Ethereum, rather than relying on printed money or traditional bank accounts.
On the other hand, silver has seen strong performance since the beginning of 2025, with the price of an ounce rising more than 71% during the year, trading at $50 per ounce.
This is supported by a recurring supply-demand deficit, with the Silver Institute predicting that demand will exceed supply by more than 100 million ounces, leading to declining inventories and rising prices.
Ethereum, the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency, experienced a temporary decline after former US President Donald Trump imposed 100% tariffs on China, falling from $4,365 to $3,742 before stabilizing at $3,822 at the time of writing.
