Bitcoin’s price prediction game just got a political twist—Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump are betting big on a $170K surge, crediting MicroStrategy’s Michael Saylor for fueling the fire.

Wall Street veterans roll their eyes—because nothing says ’sound investment thesis’ like a family known for casinos and reality TV diving into crypto forecasts.

Meanwhile, Bitcoin hodlers cheer—while quietly wondering if this is the pump before the dump.

Eric Trump predicts Bitcoin to ‘go to the moon’

Donald Trump Jr. predicted bitcoin could surge to $150,000–$175,000 by 2026, while Eric Trump playfully suggested it might “go to the moon” by next year.

Eric emphasized the growing demand, noting that billions of dollars are invested in Bitcoin daily. With demand exceeding supply, even a fraction of Bitcoin could become highly valuable.

“Every day, people are allocating billions to it. Even 0.1 BTC will be worth a fortune.”

Is Saylor behind these predictions?

Needless to say, Michael Saylor, Strategy’s Executive Chairman, played a key role in fueling the TRUMP siblings’ enthusiasm for crypto.

Eric Trump shared that Saylor encouraged them to take bold risks, even suggesting they mortgage Mar-a-Lago (a luxury resort, owned by Donald Trump) to invest in Bitcoin.

Inspired by Saylor’s influence, Trump Media launched a $2.5 billion initiative to build a Bitcoin treasury.

Eric also noted that institutions, royal families, and private offices worldwide are adopting Bitcoin treasury strategies, reflecting

He said

 “No one wants to sell it. Everyone wants in.”

Moreover, Eric Trump also voiced strong criticism of traditional banks, claiming he was “debanked” and labeling the system as “corrupt.”

Bitcoin’s current market dynamics and the way ahead

This comment was made while Bitcoin was trading NEAR $108,456, showing a minor 0.54% decline in the last 24 hours, according to CoinMarketCap.

Despite the price drop, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) remained above 50, signaling that bullish momentum is currently outweighing bearish pressure.

In other developments, American Bitcoin, the Bitcoin mining firm co-founded by Eric Trump, has announced plans to go public.

With Bitcoin valued above $100,000, the MOVE could yield potential gains exceeding 180%.

However, critics warn that mining costs, including hardware expenses, could range from $80,000 to $90,000 per Bitcoin.

This high cost adds complexity to the fast-changing market, making profitability more challenging for miners.
