Eric Trump, Executive Vice President of the Trump Organization, addressed the Bitcoin Asia conference in Hong Kong on August 29, expressing strong support for both bitcoin and its community.
Trump family’s bitcoin endorsement
During his remarks, Eric Trump emphasized the Trump family’s close relationship with the bitcoin community, which he said had shown remarkable support for his father, Donald Trump, before he became U.S. President for the second time.
In his speech, he stated:
“The Bitcoin community embraced my father unlike anything I had ever seen before. And I hope that’s paid off in spades because we love this community. We believe in this community.”
Bold prediction for bitcoin price
Eric Trump went on to make a striking forecast for bitcoin’s price trajectory, saying:
“There’s no question. Bitcoin takes $1 million.”
His comments come amid a notable year for bitcoin, which has risen 18% in 2025, reaching an all-time high of $124,480.82 in mid-August.
The recent price surge has been attributed to favorable regulatory changes from the Trump administration and growing institutional investment.
