Fact Check: Did Robert Kiyosaki Say ‘1,000 XRP Will Make You the Richest in Your Family’?

The post Fact Check: Did Robert Kiyosaki Say ‘1,000 XRP Will Make You the Richest in Your Family’? appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News

Rumors are once again making rounds on social media, claiming that famous investor and author of Rich Dad Poor Dad, Robert Kiyosaki, endorsed XRP. The viral quote being shared is: “1,000 XRP will make you the richest person in your family.” While this statement has caused excitement among XRP supporters, the facts behind it tell a different story.

The Viral Claim

Many posts on platforms like X (formerly Twitter) and crypto-focused communities have claimed that Kiyosaki made a big prediction about XRP’s future value. The statement hints that holding just 1,000 XRP coins could lead to generational wealth, a claim that understandably caught attention during a time when XRP continues to make headlines.

But is the quote real?

What Really Happened

The statement being attributed to Kiyosaki does not have a confirmed source. It was also shared by a crypto analyst known as Levi. However, Levi later came forward and admitted that the post was not based on any verified interview, tweet, or publication from Kiyosaki himself.

In a public apology, Levi said, “I’d like to apologize to the XRP army for my latest Robert Kiyosaki post. My social media news poster didn’t verify the source of the post and instead relied on previous statements made across social media. There is no verified source of Robert Kiyosaki directly endorsing XRP.”

This clearly shows the statement was shared without proper fact-checking and has no official confirmation.

Who Really Said It?

While the quote has been wrongly linked to Kiyosaki, the actual statement, or something similar, seems to have come from Edo Farina, a known XRP supporter and influencer in the crypto space. Farina has previously made bullish predictions about XRP, including the idea that owning even a small amount, like 1,000 XRP, could be highly profitable in the future.

Final Verdict

Kiyosaki did not say, “1,000 XRP could make you the wealthiest in your family.” The quote appears to have been made up or misattributed, and there’s no credible interview, tweet, or article where Kiyosaki expresses such a direct opinion on XRP.
