If you invested $1,000 in Ethereum when Eric Trump called to buy, youd now have this much

Eric Trump has taken a victory lap on social media after Ethereums (ETH) recent surge, revisiting his February call to buy the cryptocurrency at $2,900.

“How am I doing now @AshleyDCan？ You really ought to get out of this business…” Trump posted on August 13, 2025, alongside a screenshot of Ethereums price chart.

The post was aimed at political and cypto commentator Ashley D. C., who on June 3, 2025, mocked Trumps earlier advice, writing:

“If you trust Eric Trump just remember he told you to buy ETH at $2,900 before he used you as exit liquidity.”

At the time of Ashleys tweet, Ethereum was trading at $1,573, near its lowest point of the year.

Ethereum price analysis

As of August 14, 2025, ETH is trading at $4,702, marking a 62.14% gain since Trump‘s initial call in February 3 and 198.93% rise since Ashley’s dig in early June.

In my opinion, its a great time to add $ETH.

If you had invested $1,000 when Trump first called to buy at $2,900 on February 3, your position would now be worth $1,621. Had you waited until Ashleys comment at $1,573, that same $1,000 would have grown to $2,989, almost triple your money in just over two months.

Ethereums rally has been fueled by record ETF inflows, rising institutional interest, and strong on-chain activity, pushing it toward the $5,000 level for the first time in history.
