Eric Trump publicly suggested it's a "great time" to invest in Ether, as the family crypto venture moved its Ether holdings.

World Liberty Financial, the decentralized-finance project linked to Donald Trump’s family, appears to have added tens of million of dollars worth of the Ether cryptocurrency after crypto markets crashed during the weekend as the US president briefly imposed tariffs on Mexico and Canada.

Cryptocurrency prices took a hit from the prospect of a trade war between the U.S. and its major trading partners, with some well-known digital assets seeing values fall more than 10%.
