In the last 24 hours, Gold and Silver have blasted off as the Iran-Israel war escalates. Veteran investor Robert Kiyosaki said that Bitcoin is ready to ‘blast off’ very soon. His comments come as BTC price is once again stabilizing around $66,000 after a major dip to $63,000 last week.
Precious metals Gold and Silver have shot up sharply over the past 48 hours amid rising geopolitical tensions stemming from the ongoing Iran-Israel war. Robert Kiyosaki pointed out that Gold prices shot up by a straight $128 in a single day, moving past $5,400. Kiyosaki is confident that a similar rally could follow up in Silver and Bitcoin very soon. He wrote:
GOLD booms $128 in one day. Better news is silver and Bitcoin to blast off. Hang on.
Precious metal prices climbed sharply as geopolitical tensions in the Middle East escalated following Iranian strikes on Saudi oil infrastructure. This happened as investors took a flight to safe-haven assets.
Spot gold prices rose toward the $5,400 per ounce region amid heightened risk sentiment. Silver also advanced, trading near $96 per ounce as investors increased exposure to traditional hedges against market volatility. On the other hand, Bitcoin price has held steady at $66,000.
Crypto analyst Lark Davis drew attention to the risks of financial instability during wartime. Citing Iran, he stressed on how traditional financial systems can deteriorate quickly.
In a recent commentary, Davis described a scenario in which banks are closed, internet access is disrupted, and ATM withdrawals are heavily restricted. As a result, individuals are left with limited liquidity during this war crisis.
Davis pointed to the sharp depreciation of the Iranian rial. He noted that large amounts of local currency now convert into relatively small sums in U.S. dollars.
Davis argued that decentralized digital assets such as Bitcoin could offer an alternative in such circumstances. The reason is that they are not dependent on banks or national borders, and investors can self-custody them through hardware or cold wallets.
Crypto analyst Crypto Tice said Bitcoin may be entering a bottoming window, based on historical trends. According to Tice, Bitcoin has historically formed major cycle bottoms roughly 23 months after reaching a new all-time high. He noted that the market is now approaching a similar time-based compression zone.

Tice argued that extended corrections tend to exhaust sellers structurally. He added that it often aligns with extreme bearish sentiment and broader liquidity cycle resets. Tice believes that the current macro conditions could be the last straw, in the bottom for Bitcoin.
Digital asset investment products recorded $1.0 billion in inflows last week. This marked a healthy reversal from a five-week streak of outflows totaling $4.0 billion, as per data from CoinShares.

From a macro perspective, analysts said the shift in sentiment cannot be attributed to a single catalyst. However, recent price weakness, a break below key technical levels, and renewed accumulation by large Bitcoin holders supported the reversal in flows.
Bitcoin attracted the majority of last week’s inflows at $881 million. At the same time, short Bitcoin investment products saw $3.7 million in inflows. Thus, investor positioning still seems divided as of now.
Ethereum posted $117 million in inflows, marking its strongest weekly total since mid-January. Despite the recent rebound, both Bitcoin and Ethereum remain in net outflow territory year to date.
