Eric Trump won a victory lap on social media after the recent surge in Ethereum (ETH) and revisited his call to buy cryptocurrency for $2,900 in February.
“How am I doing @Ashleydcan now? You really should get out of this business…” Trump posted on August 13, 2025 along with a screenshot of the Ethereum price list.
This post gave me a laugh at Trump’s previous advice on June 3, 2025, and then laughed at the following:
“If you trust Eric Trump, I remember he told you to buy ETH for $2,900 before using you as outlet liquidity.”
As of Ashley’s tweet, Ethereum was trading at $1,573, close to the lowest point of the year.
Ethereum price analysis
As of August 14, 2025, ETH was trading at $4,702, with an increase of 62.14% since Trump’s first call on February 3, and 198.93% have risen since Ashley’s excavation in early June.
In my opinion, it’s the best time to add $eth.

If you invested $1,000 on February 3 when Trump first called for a purchase for $2,900, your position is worth $1,621. Waiting for Ashley’s comment at $1,573, the same $1,000 grew to $2,989, almost tripling my money in just two months.
The Ethereum rally was fuelled by a record influx of ETFs, increased institutional profits and strong chain activity, and for the first time in history, pushed towards the $5,000 level.
