On May 25, Robert Kiyosaki, author of "Rich Dad Poor Dad," warned that Iran's growing acceptance of Chinese yuan for oil payments marks the beginning of the end for the petrodollar system. In a viral post shared on social media, Kiyosaki claimed Iran's shift toward yuan-based settlements represents a direct challenge to decades of U.S. dollar dominance in global energy markets.
Kiyosaki urged followers to study Ray Dalio's views on shifting world reserve currencies and tied the issue to broader de-dollarization trends. He recommended investing in hard assets such as gold, silver, and Bitcoin as protection against potential currency devaluation.
