SEC Chairman Gary Gensler has repeatedly stated that bitcoin is a commodity while most other crypto-currencies are securities. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) Chairman Rostin Behnam has also confirmed that bitcoin is a commodity.

The securities regulator said in November that its enforcement division remains focused on crypto. The SEC has been heavily criticized for taking an enforcement-centric approach to regulating the crypto industry. Gary Gensler said in May, following the terra/luna collapse, that many crypto tokens will fail.

Robert Kiyosaki has been recommending that investors buy gold, silver and bitcoin for some time. Robert Kiyosaki has previously stated that he is a bitcoin investor, not a trader, so he gets excited when bitcoin becomes a safe bet.

In September, the renowned author urged investors to get into crypto-currencies now, before the biggest market crash occurs.

Robert Kiyosaki also made other dire predictions, including the collapse of the U.S. dollar, the destruction of the U.S. economy by the Fed with its rate hikes, hyperinflation, a Great Depression and World War III.
