I’m here with both Eric Trump, co-founder and chief strategy officer of American Bitcoin and Asher Ganoott, executive chairman to talk about the business behind Bitcoin and where this is all going. Good to see both of you. Jets Eric coming right to you out of the gate here. You are the ultimate hard investment guy, building world-class properties, golf courses around the world. Explain to us why where does the passion come for Bitcoin?
00:30 Eric Trump
Well, listen, it’s a great hedge against hard assets. I really believe that with every aspect of my heart and soul, right? I mean it’s immediately liquid, it’s it’s global, it’s transferable. You can transfer it 24 hours a day, seven days a week, instantaneously, hardly any fees. You can’t do that with hotels, you can’t do that with real estate. So I think it’s the greatest hedge against what I do every single day, which is kind of the hard asset world. You know, I think it’s also a great hedge against inflation. It’s a great hedge against uh corruption. It’s a great hedge against, you know, poorly managed monetary systems around the world and I think that’s why you see this global influx to to Bitcoin. I think it’s become probably the greatest asset of our time. You see roughly 70% appreciation on average year over year over the last decade. Name an asset that’s had that kind of appreciation. You just won’t, you know, find it, Brian. So, you know, and and and frankly a lot of this for me personally, because we have a little bit of a political hat in my family as you know better than anybody, comes out of getting canceled by banks over and over and over for doing absolutely nothing wrong.
01:43 Eric Trump
And I think cryptocurrency is going to be the future of finance and uh and I think blockchain solves a lot of kind of the weaponization of the banking industry, uh that’s affected so many, not only in this country but around the world. and so I’m deeply passionate about it. American Bitcoin is going to do it better than than anyone. I mean we started the company just under eight months ago. We’re the 25th largest um Bitcoin accumulator in in the country right now, public at least. And uh and we’re climbing that ladder very, very quickly. So, um unbelievable things to come and I’m incredibly proud of uh Asher and uh and and everything that we’ve created on this end.

Strong start for American Bitcoin, Eric. What is what’s next for this company? Over the next 12 months, what is your product roadmap? And then even along the same lines, how in the world do you mine Bitcoin so cheaply?
02:41 Eric Trump
We mine Bitcoin so cheaply because we’ve got cheap energy. and by the way, it’s isn’t it nice to be able to do that in the United States of America where we actually have favorable energy policy. We haven’t had that for a very long time. You see it with oil and gas and everything else coming down to record lows right now. It’s a beautiful thing to see. America has to lead the way. Energy cost is everything. Energy cost is directly correlated with GDP. The lower the energy you have, the the higher your your GDP and that’s what we want for this country. So we’re doing it in West Texas using some of the lowest energy costs. Brian, we’re mining Bitcoin for roughly 50 cents on the dollar to the average, you know, to the spot price of of BTC. Every single day, 24 hours a day, we’re mining Bitcoin and we’re adding it and uh and we believe this asset’s going to be transformational. Listen, I I a little while ago, I looked at the exact price of Bitcoin two years ago from today, you know what it was? It was 36,500 and and now it’s sitting at you know, 105, 104, uh bouncing around. It was it was up past 120, um a month ago. Bitcoin has been one of the greatest assets uh of our time and and you know, and even now as you see volatility, which you always see in cryptocurrency because naturally it has slightly higher vol, you know, we’re we’re still 170, 180, 190% higher
04:19 Eric Trump
than we were at this exact day two years ago and I think that speaks to the fact that everybody around the world wants it. Every Fortune 500 company is putting it on their balance sheet. Uh every family office is is buying more and more. People are hoarding it. And this isn’t just in the United States, this is all around the world. Um, you know, it’s it’s an incredibly exciting asset class and uh I believe in Bitcoin with every heart aspect of my heart and soul.
