Eric Trump has declared he is “never more bullish on Bitcoin” as his company ramps up its crypto strategy.
Speaking at industry events including Invest 2025 and gatherings at Mar-a-Lago, Trump said Bitcoin offers protection against inflation, corruption, and inefficient global systems. His comments come as his firm strengthens its position as a major corporate holder of BTC.
American Bitcoin Corp., which he co-founded, now holds more than 5,800 BTC, valued at roughly $520 million as of late January 2026. That puts the company among the larger public corporate Bitcoin holders.
The company combines Bitcoin mining with a digital asset treasury strategy. It focuses on using U.S.-based energy infrastructure to grow its holdings and increase Bitcoin per share over time.
Despite the aggressive accumulation, the company’s stock has reportedly fallen about 75% since its debut. However, Trump has framed the volatility as short-term noise compared to what he sees as a long-term shift toward blockchain rails, stablecoins, and tokenized assets.
The broader push also reflects a more pro-crypto stance linked to Donald Trump. The administration has supported initiatives such as a strategic Bitcoin reserve and has engaged with major financial leaders during crypto-focused events.
Eric Trump said the goal is to make the United States the “crypto capital of the world.” He argued that Bitcoin is faster, cheaper, and fairer than traditional banking systems, warning that institutions that fail to adapt risk being left behind.
