Why It Matters: Eric Trump has emerged as a surprising proponent of Bitcoin, describing it as "the future" in a Dec. 15 interview with Benzinga.

He proposed a tax-free framework for cryptocurrency transactions, aiming to position the U.S. as a global hub for digital innovation and attract blockchain investments.

Trump spoke at a Bitcoin MENA event in Abu Dhabi on Dec. 10, predicting Bitcoin could reach $1 million.

This would align with his vision of integrating cryptocurrency into a broader economic reform agenda, including measures like curbing inflation through energy policy changes and government spending adjustments.

The outspoken chairman of MicroStrategy MSTR has been consistently in the headlines as Bitcoin’s most prominent advocate, calling it the “first perfect money” and describing MicroStrategy’s Bitcoin acquisitions as “intelligent leverage.”
