The race for Bitcoin dominance is intensifying, and Eric Trump is entering the arena with an ambitious plan. At Consensus 2025, he announced his strategy to mine Bitcoin at the lowest cost possible — aiming to outperform Michael Saylor and his company MicroStrategy.
🔍 Trump Focuses on Mining, Not Buying
Unlike MicroStrategy, which has been aggressively buying BTC from the market, Trump wants to take a different approach. Instead of spending billions, he plans to mine Bitcoin efficiently and inexpensively. His company, American Bitcoin, co-founded this March with Asher Genoot from mining firm Hut 8, aims to become a leader in the industry.
“I want to accumulate a massive amount of Bitcoin,” Trump stated, “but I also want to be the one who mines it at the lowest possible cost.”
💰 Mining BTC at $37,000 Instead of Buying at $100,000?
Trump claims that while others are buying BTC above $100K, his firm will mine it for just $37,000–$38,000 — giving American Bitcoin a major cost advantage.
He sees today’s crypto race as twofold:
🔹 One led by MicroStrategy’s aggressive buying,
🔹 The other — efficient mining, where he wants to lead.
He also made a bold prediction: that cryptocurrencies will one day replace the SWIFT payment system, and he’s betting big on Bitcoin.
🏁 “We’ll Win This Marathon,” Trump Declares
Eric Trump is confident that he can catch up to MicroStrategy, which has accumulated over 568,000 BTC since 2020. Just this week, Saylor’s company bought another 13,390 BTC for $1.34 billion.
But Trump says the race is far from over: “Everyone is running fast right now,” he said. “But I promise you — we’ll beat them in this marathon.”
⚠ American Bitcoin Has Ground to Cover
American Bitcoin hasn’t disclosed how much BTC it currently holds, but its parent company Hut 8 owns fewer than 11,000 BTC. To truly challenge MicroStrategy, Trump’s firm would need:
🔹 Roughly $60 billion in capital
🔹 To navigate tight regulatory scrutiny
🔹 And to win trust from investors and the public
Meanwhile, crypto ventures linked to the Trump family have already attracted attention from U.S. lawmakers, especially over potential conflicts of interest and transparency issues.
