Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump, sons of former U.S. President Donald Trump, have hinted at a significant announcement that could impact the real-world assets market. Their recent posts suggest a notable development in the decentralized finance (DeFi) space. This comes shortly after Trump demonstrated his support for cryptocurrencies at a Bitcoin 2024 event, where he pledged never to sell the U.S. government’s Bitcoin and announced his support for establishing a U.S. Bitcoin reserve. He also introduced limited-edition Bitcoin sneakers.
What Are Trump’s Sons Saying?
In a recent post, Donald Trump Jr. indicated that the crypto community should brace for an announcement that will significantly impact the ecosystem. Meanwhile, Eric Trump expressed his growing enthusiasm for crypto and DeFi, hinting at a major upcoming development.
Previously, the launch of the Donald Trump coin, which had no actual ties to Trump, ended in failure. This history has led some commentators to caution against another meme coin. Others have advised against launching new crypto projects until regulatory uncertainties, particularly concerning the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), are resolved.
Is It a Real-World Assets Project?
The crypto community is actively speculating, with some suggesting that the anticipated announcement may involve a real-world asset project. Steven ‘aka Dogetoshi’, a researcher and Dogecoin investor, believes there may be a connection between the Trump family’s DeFi tweets and a real-world asset initiative.
Steven noted that real estate magnate and Trump ally Steve Witkoff shared a message with the same hashtag used by Donald Trump Jr. Witkoff’s post hinted at a game-changing development in Crypto and DeFi, emphasizing financial empowerment.
Beyond Eric and Trump Jr., Witkoff also follows Chase Hero, a crypto influencer focused on bridging the digital and physical worlds. Steven theorizes that they might collaborate on a tokenized project, potentially allowing people to buy tokenized shares of Trump’s properties.
Chase Hero is linked to Subify, an OnlyFans competitor, and AMG Software Solutions. Recent trademark applications for “World Liberty,” “Be DeFiant,” and “World Liberty Financial”—filed by AMG—align with the hashtags used in the posts by Trump Jr. and Witkoff.
