February 6 News, "Rich Dad Poor Dad" author Robert Kiyosaki stated that he has temporarily stopped buying Bitcoin, gold, and silver. This decision is not due to short-term price fluctuations but stems from concerns about the stability of the U.S. financial system. He pointed out that the real risk does not lie in the market itself but in the ever-expanding national debt structure. Kiyosaki recently posted on X that the U.S. national debt has risen to approximately $38 trillion. When long-term obligations such as Social Security and Medicare are included, total liabilities could approach $250 trillion. In his view, this scale of hidden liabilities is eroding public trust in the financial system and exposing deep systemic issues. He also criticized the Federal Reserve and policymakers, believing that long-term mismanagement and monetary expansion have worsened structural imbalances.

On February 6th, news reports indicate that as Bitcoin prices have retreated from their high levels at the end of 2025, the massive Bitcoin holdings of its mysterious creator, Satoshi Nakamoto, have also significantly decreased in value. Based on current market prices, the approximately 1.1 million Bitcoins attributed to Satoshi are worth about $71 billion, whereas during the peak a few months ago, this figure exceeded $130 billion, with a loss of over $60 billion. This change is not due to selling activity. On-chain data shows that wallets associated with Satoshi have been in long-term dormancy since around 2010, with no large-scale transfers ever occurring. These addresses are considered "effectively locked," accounting for about 5% of the total Bitcoin supply, and are the largest known single holdings in the market. Because of this, they are viewed as "sleeping Bitcoins" that will not enter circulation, having a long-term impact on market structure.
