Eric Trump's 'Pumping Hard' Post — Crypto Analyst Says He's a 'Legend' for Timing Ethereum's Bottom

Eric Trump

Cryptocurrency analyst Ali Martinez poked fun at American Bitcoin Corp. (NASDAQ:ABTC) co-founder Eric Trump’s bullish Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH) post on Monday, just as the second-largest cryptocurrency experienced a sharp rally.

‘Legend’ Eric Trump

Martinez posted an ETH weekly chart on X, overlaying several of Trump’s earlier bullish posts.

The chart illustrated that after Trump famously posted “It’s a great time to add ETH” in February 2025, the asset dropped 52%. Similarly, since his July 2025 post in which he “agreed” that ETH should be trading at $8,000, the coin has fallen 61%.

Martinez then turned attention to the most recent post, where Trump said, “ETH is pumping hard! Great to see! Crypto is the future…"

Since then, ETH has spiked nearly 5%, prompting Martinez to crack a cheeky remark, “Did Trump just time the bottom? LEGEND!”

Trump’s bullish posts on ETH have become meme fodder on X, sparking criticism and mockery directed at his advocacy.

ETH About To Boom?

Martinez spotlighted a new bullish flip on Ethereum’s SuperTrend indicator, with two previous such signals preceding “bull rallies of 72% and 177%.”

Technical analyst and trader Ardi said that ETH neared its “biggest moment of this bear market,” with the ETH/BTC ratio testing a 12-month downtrend line.

“Every attempt at breaking this resistance since last August has failed. And that’s exactly what would make a break here significant,” Ardi said. “If we get it, the ratio bottom for this cycle is likely in.”

Price Action: At the time of writing, ETH was exchanging hands at $1,865.17, up 4.67% in the last 24 hours, according to data from Benzinga Pro.
