Kiyosaki Warns Dollar Is Under Threat as Iran Accepts Yuan for Oil Payments!

Robert Kiyosaki, author of Rich Dad Poor Dad and long-time dollar skeptic, is calling Iran's decision to accept Chinese Yuan for oil payments the biggest news in world financial history — a characteristically bold claim, but one landing against a backdrop of genuine structural shifts in global reserve currency dynamics.

Iran's move is the latest in a series of bilateral energy deals that bypass the US dollar, joining a growing list of commodity trades settled in yuan, rubles, and other non-dollar currencies. For petrodollar architecture — the informal system that has underpinned dollar dominance since the 1970s — each defection, however small, chips at the foundation.

Kiyosaki has consistently argued that dollar debasement and geopolitical fragmentation will accelerate demand for hard assets including gold, silver, and Bitcoin.
