Eric Trump, son of Donald Trump, made the remarks at the World Liberty Financial forum held at Mar-a-Lago. Speaking to CNBC, he reiterated his long-term projection that Bitcoin could reach $1 million and emphasized that his conviction is stronger than ever.
With Bitcoin trading just under $67,000 and significantly below its 2025 peak above $126,000, the asset has seen a notable pullback. Nevertheless, Trump argued that short-term volatility does not undermine the broader long-term trajectory. He highlighted that Bitcoin has delivered an average annual return of around 70% over the past decade and described volatility as a natural feature of high-growth assets.
The comments come as the Trump family deepens its involvement in digital asset initiatives through World Liberty Financial. Although Bitcoin has yet to sustainably reclaim the $70,000 level, the repeated $1 million target reflects ongoing long-term optimism from prominent political figures.
