U.S. President Donald Trump’s son, Eric Trump, says that Bitcoin (BTC) is at a turning point and that the worst is likely over for the largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization.
Eric Trump made the comments at the Bitcoin 2026 conference in Las Vegas, Nevada. He said that the asset's best days are here now.
Trump is the co-founder and chief strategy officer of American Bitcoin (ABTC).
“What bitcoin has done in the last six months relative to the previous three years is transformational,” said Trump. “We are in the greatest period I've ever seen.”
Trump pointed to major banks now offering Bitcoin-backed mortgages and custody services as evidence of Wall Street’s growing embrace of crypto.
“People are not selling it. People are holding it. Bitcoin is becoming sticky,” said Eric Trump, adding that limited supply and growing demand are compressing the market.
“I'll ride out the volatility,” said Trump. “We'll see who wins in a 10-year period of time.”
BTC’s price is currently at $75,800 U.S., down from a peak of $80,000 U.S. over the past week.
