The 2025 Bitcoin Conference in Las Vegas was one of the most anticipated moments on Wednesday. Along with a panel led by Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump, and with the manager of American Bitcoin, a Bitcoin mining company. During the talk, the Trump brothers shared their vision for their personal history with the cryptocurrency ecosystem, Bitcoin (BTC), and their role in the industry as entrepreneurs.
During the 30 minutes of a discussion panel, Donald Jr. and Eric reviewed the recent advances of his family in the world of cryptocurrency. They also mentioned the commitment of Truth Social, a platform managed by Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG). It recently announced that it was incorporated into BTC’s Treasury for US$2.5 billion.
“We’ve finally got a capable president in the White House who loves the industry,” Eric said. “The United States will win the cryptocurrency revolution,” he insisted.
One of the panel axes was how Trump reached the ecosystem. As they reported, it wasn’t that much because of ideological enthusiasm — at least by coincidence — but inevitably: They were alienated from the traditional financial system and found a form of “revenge” or rematch in Bitcoin. “We were closed accounts, they denied us, they didn’t answer us,” Donald Jr. said.
“We noticed the system was broken. I compared it to the Ponzi scheme, which I had always been involved without knowing,” he added. Eric is even dull: “I hate using the word ‘hate’, but I’d love to see the great bank disappear. They deserve it. ”
I agreed to both Bitcoin and cryptocurrency are financial democratization tools that traditional systems never offer. “They tell you they’re sure of your money, but if you try to get more than $5,000, you’ll be on a watch list,” Eric denounced, criticizing the restrictions on the US banking system.
Bitcoin «Made in USA»
With American Bitcoin leaders Mike Ho and Matt Prusack, Trump detailed how mining companies represent new ways to understand their business. On his part, he summed up his main objective as follows: “We want to increase Bitcoin by actions for shareholders.” He emphasized that US mining Bitcoin will allow BTC to be acquired at a price far below the market with cheap energy.
“This is the best business model in the world. You can use American energy in American soil to acquire one of the most valuable assets that humanity has seen,” Eric Trump said.
American Bitcoin is trying to differentiate itself from other companies through a proactive management approach. “We are not ETFs. Our goal is to increase the number of Bitcoins per action each year,” explained Ho.
“Everyone wants Bitcoin.”
The conversation also addressed the global perception of Bitcoin. “Middle East, Africa, Asia, or Fortune 500. They all want that. Eric said. He said there is a significant shortage on the OTC exchange.
“I think people are late because they can’t buy the whole BTC. But that doesn’t matter. 0.1 bitcoin is worth a lot of money.”he claimed that the design of the protocol remembers that fractional purchases are possible. “Today’s 0.1 bitcoin equals 1,000 pizzas. Tomorrow, car. Later home,” Ho added, recalling the famous story of two pizzas paid for 10,000 BTC.
Long term inspiration with Michael Saylor
In the final stretch of the panel, Trump revealed how the MicroStrategy founder is doing. Michael Saylor persuaded them to embrace Bitcoin as a legacy strategy. “He said that Mar-A-Lago Mortge bought 20 million people at BTC. I didn’t do that, but I understood the message,” Eric said.
“Saylor tells everyone: do what I do. I’ve never seen anything like that in any other industry. Titan encourages others to compete with him,” he added.
As explained in Cryptopedia, Cryptootics’ Educational Choice – Strategy is a public contributor with more Bitcoin (over 580,000 at the time of this publication) in its Treasury, and it is worth clarifying that Michael Saylor is the founder and current president.
How much is Bitcoin in 2026?
The panel’s spicy moment came when Altcoin Daily moderator and creator Aaron Arnold asked the panelists to encourage Bitcoin price predictions within a year. The round was overwhelming:
- Eric Trump: 170.000 US$
- Donald Trump Jr.: 150,000 to 175,000 US$
- Mike him: Over 200,000 US$
- Matte Prusac: 6 insured figures, 7 if everything goes well
“Of course, this is not financial advice,” Arnold said between laughs, but the enthusiasm of the panel could not be denied.
And what will come later?
Beyond prices, the Trump brothers believe the best hasn’t come yet. “Telephone Access Stage – Type Dial-up– It’s the end. It’s parabolic that will come over the next decade,” Eric predicted. “And those who enter from underneath are going to make absolute assets.”.
Meanwhile, Donald Jr. closed by emphasizing that his involvement was neither accidental nor opportunistic. “We were late adopters. But we inevitably adopted Bitcoin because traditional options were taken away from us. And we’re doing millions of things under the same pressure.”
