As of 11 a.m. on the 2nd, the price of Bitcoin in South Korea was 126,298,000 won (US$129,000), up 1.01% from the same time the previous day.
At the same time, the overseas Bitcoin price based on CoinMarketCap rose 2.92% from the same time the previous day to $85,077 (approximately 12.74 million yen).
Bitcoin, which was trading at around $82,000 the previous day, rose to $85,466 at one o'clock in the morning on the same day. The reason for the rebound in Bitcoin was the participation of President Trump's family.
This is believed to be due to the news that a Bitcoin mining company based in the United States is preparing to go public. President Trump's second son, Eric Trump, has entered into a joint venture with Hut8, a US Bitcoin mining company.
The company plans to list American Bitcoin, which it plans to attract additional capital in the future.
Previously, Eric Trump had engaged in a Bitcoin mining operation with Hut8
Hut8 has announced the establishment of American Bitcoin. In exchange for acquiring 80% of its mining-related shares, Hut8 has handed over most of its mining machines to American Bitcoin.
American Bitcoin will be led by three people, including Eric Trump. President Trump's eldest son, Donald Trump Jr., will also participate in this investment.
Eric Trump said, "My passion for Bitcoin and decentralized finance (DeFi) will lead the growth of the virtual asset market."
