Trump Jr. Says Bitcoin Reflects American Core Values
Meanwhile, his brother, Donald Trump Jr., who is a shareholder of American Bitcoin, also commented on ABTC’s Nasdaq debut. In his view, Bitcoin reflects core American values, like transparency, freedom, and independence.
He considered the launch of ABTC a remarkable feat that would provide investors with the opportunity to invest in Bitcoin, an asset capable of strengthening the United States economy.
Founded in 2025, American Bitcoin focuses solely on accumulating Bitcoin and providing institutional-grade exposure to the premier asset. The company builds its Bitcoin holdings through large-scale mining operations and disciplined acquisitions from the open market.
The Trump family has been in the news recently for other crypto-related initiatives. Earlier this week, WLFI, the native token of the Trump family-backed DeFi project World Liberty Financial, was listed on Binance and several other global exchanges. The token, which started trading at around $0.3, is currently down 25.3% to $0.2241.
