Eric Trump, the Chief Strategy Officer of American Bitcoin and the second son of the U.S. President, has framed BTC as the most powerful financial innovation of the decade.
Speaking in an interview on NYNext, Eric declared that Bitcoin is “the greatest asset of this decade by far,” pointing to its impressive year-over-year growth and unmatched performance compared to traditional industries and markets.
Eric Highlights Donald Trump’s Support for Bitcoin
According to Trump, Bitcoin’s value has skyrocketed by roughly 70% over the past year, a pace he says surpasses every major company, market, and sector in the global economy. He argued that this performance cements Bitcoin’s role as the defining financial asset of the decade, one that both investors and nations will increasingly want to adopt.
Beyond praising Bitcoin, Trump addressed what he described as a “war on cryptocurrency,” suggesting that America was once at risk of falling behind in the digital asset race. He credited his father, Donald Trump, with supporting cryptocurrency even before his presidency and noted that the Trump family has ties to companies operating in the sector.
Remarkably, the Trump family is widely recognized for its ties to multiple crypto ventures, including the DeFi initiative World Liberty Financial and the Bitcoin treasury firm American Bitcoin.
America Will Win Bitcoin-Led Financial Revolution
Looking ahead, Eric predicted that the U.S. will “win the Bitcoin revolution,” positioning the nation as the future hub of financial innovation. He framed this as a new era of competition in global finance, with America poised to take the lead by embracing Bitcoin and blockchain technology.
“I’m happy to be at the forefront of it,” he said, signaling his commitment to advancing Bitcoin adoption as part of America’s financial future.
Meanwhile, Eric also underscored the role of stablecoins in strengthening America’s financial leadership. He noted that stablecoin adoption is “bringing trillions of dollars back into the United States,” presenting it as evidence that the U.S. is gaining ground in the global crypto race.
