Eric Trump to Headline BTC Asia in August

The Trump crypto conference tour continues, with Eric Trump confirmed to speak at BTC Asia conference in Hong Kong in August.

Hong Kong is pushing through a variety of pro-crypto legislation through its local assembly, known as LegCo. The city had its own stablecoin legislation before the U.S. passed the GENIUS Act.

Trump, speaking earlier this year at Consensus Toronto, praised bitcoin’s liquidity, calling it superior to real estate, and referred to it as “digital gold.”

He also expressed sympathy for the crypto community, claiming that the same group that targeted it under the Biden administration had also attacked his father, former President Donald Trump.

Trump’s brother, Donald Trump Jr., is also a regular fixture on the conference circuit and is scheduled to speak at Korea Blockchain Week in September.

BTC Asia will be held in Hong Kong from August 28 to 29.

CoinDesk’s Consensus will also return to Hong Kong next February.
