Abstract generation in progress

U.S. entrepreneur Eric Trump has shared a sneak peek into American Bitcoin’s mining facility, which mines 2% of the Bitcoin supply daily

He noted that the site houses roughly 35,000 of these machines, each powered by what he described as “American energy” to mine Bitcoin.

Eric stated that American Bitcoin “mines about 2% of BTC’s supply daily”. This claim sparked discussion in the comments, with some clarifying that he meant the company mines roughly 2% of newly minted Bitcoin each day

Bitcoin Is Tangible

Highlighting the sophistication of the company’s facility, Eric emphasized that cryptocurrencies, especially Bitcoin, are tangible, calling the site “living proof.”

His argument stems from the fact that producing new Bitcoin requires substantial physical infrastructure, including servers, cooling systems, and energy

Additionally, he called on viewers to look into America Bitcoin and consider joining its efforts. He expressed confidence that it is on track to become one of the leading crypto enterprises globally. ,

American Bitcoin Holdings

Eric Trump co-founded American Bitcoin in March 2025 as a Bitcoin treasury and mining company, with support from Donald Trump Jr. Hut 8 Group holds an 80% stake in the firm, while Eric-backed American Data Centers owns the remaining 20%.

The company currently holds 4,004 BTC, ranking it 25th among corporate holders of Bitcoin worldwide. In addition to mining Bitcoin at its state-of-the-art facility, American Bitcoin increases its BTC holdings through fundraising efforts.

Earlier this year, the company raised $220 million to purchase more BTC and fund additional mining equipment

Eric has been a strong advocate for Bitcoin, urging investors to use market downturns as opportunities to accumulate more BTC. He views Bitcoin as the modern equivalent of gold and believes that a significant shift of capital from the precious metal into Bitcoin is ultimately inevitable
