Cryptocurrency bitcoin fell below $90,000 on Monday, after the selloff gathered pace following the steepest monthly decline since mid 2021, as renewed risk aversion drove investors out of stocks and digital assets. Despite the bearishness in the crypto market, renowned investor Robert Kiyosaki, is bullish on the world's largest and most popular digital token.

The author of the titular 'Rich Dad Poor Dad' series took to microblogging platform 'X' (formerly Twitter) and said in a post, "Practicing what I teach….I have been saving silver since 1965….gold since 1972, Bitcoin since 2019….Ethereum since 2023." He added that he recently purchased his $ 4.5 million home for $450,000 in gold purchased in 2000.

Notably, bitcoin shed more than $18,000 in November, as a record amount of money rushed out of the market, making this its largest dollar loss since May 2021, when a number of cryptocurrencies collapsed.

Explaining his wealth building lesson, Kiyosaki elaborated in his post on 'how much will $100 buy?' He went on to give the value the said amount would buy in specific years.

"1900: $100 would buy 8 months of groceries.

1960: $100 was worth $37

2000: $100 worth $6

2025: $100 worth $3.80," he said.
