Eric Trump, Executive Vice President of the Trump Organization, on Wednesday with co-founder of "Strategy", Michael Saylor, saying that #Bitcoin is "lucky" to have him.

Speaking at the Bitcoin 2025 conference in Las Vegas, Trump recalled how Saylor tried to convince him to invest in the leading digital currency.

Trump quoted Saylor as saying: "You need to mortgage Mar-a-Lago now. You need to pull two billion dollars from Mar-a-Lago and maintain a long-term position in Bitcoin."

Eric Trump mentioned how Saylor advises everyone to follow his approach to Bitcoin, and how it is a "great opportunity" that should be taken advantage of.

He said about Saylor: "I haven't seen that in any other sector, where there is an industry giant literally calling for smart competition."

At the same time, when Trump was asked about his prediction, he said that Bitcoin will exceed $170,000 within a year.
