Robert Kiyosaki, a renowned author and investor, expressed concerns about the consequences of the instant payment system ‘FedNow Service’ developed by the Federal Reserve (Fed) after its launch in July. Kiyosaki urged his followers to immediately invest in Bitcoin (BTC), gold, silver, and cash.
“The Fed’s CBDC is Coming”
Robert Kiyosaki, the author of the world’s best-selling personal finance book ‘Rich Dad Poor Dad’, referred to the widespread belief that the introduction of the central bank digital currency (CBDC) through the promotion of the instant payment system ‘FedNow’ is a preparation and commented, “The Fed will soon release its CBDC.”
According to Kiyosaki, the Fed’s CBDC will result in a significant loss of privacy. The famous investor believes that this situation will increase the value of gold, silver, BTC, and cash, which he considers to be invaluable assets, and advised people to invest in and accumulate these assets before it is too late.
Following the launch of the ‘FedNow’ system on July 20, the CBDC has faced criticism from politicians in the United States, including Democratic presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who warned that it would lead to financial slavery and political tyranny.
