“Eric Trump Declares Sunday the New Power Move for Finance 🕰️💸”
Picture the scene: Wall Street bigwigs lounging on their yachts, sipping martinis and blissfully enjoying their Sunday, while the crypto crowd is furiously refreshing their charts. Enter Eric Trump, the maestro of Sunday surprises, applauding his father’s announcement of the U.S. Crypto Reserve as nothing short of “genius.” One can almost hear traditional finance collectively choking on its lobster bisque.
It all kicked off on March 2, 2025, when former President Donald Trump unleashed his bombshell plan for a U.S. Crypto Reserve. The reserve rolled out with coins like XRP, Solana (SOL), and Cardano (ADA) on the guest list, and later Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) decided to crash the party. Trump, ever the showman, declared this on Truth Social, naturally sprinkling phrases like “corrupt attacks” and “MAKING AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!” It was, dare one say, vintage Trump.
The elder Trump’s exact words? “A U.S. Crypto Reserve will elevate this critical industry after years of corrupt attacks by the Biden Administration, which is why my Executive Order on Digital Assets directed the Presidential Working Group to move forward on a Crypto Strategic Reserve that includes XRP, SOL, and ADA.” He rounded it off with a flourish: “The U.S. will be the Crypto Capital of the World!”—a bold claim that no doubt sent a few Wall Streeters diving for their blackout curtains.
Not to be overshadowed, Eric Trump waltzed into the digital ballroom with his own commentary on X (formerly known as Twitter, which, one presumes, didn’t pay Elon Musk by the letter for originality). Here’s what the younger Trump posted with palpable glee:
I love the genius of announcing a strategic reserve on a Sunday, when traditional markets are closed and Wall Street sleeps. For the first time, retail investors win. Traditional finance better catch up, or it will quickly become extinct. The world no longer runs on a Mon-Friday, 9 to 5.

One imagines him typing this with a self-satisfied smirk while picturing startled bankers frantically Googling “crypto” from their cabanas. But, let’s give credit where due—Eric did make an observation that tickled the funny bone: while Wall Street was off dreaming of derivatives and dollar bills, the crypto market, like a hyper-caffeinated intern, was up all night with zero regard for weekends or sanity. By announcing on a Sunday, Trump & Co. gave crypto aficionados a running start over their traditional brethren, who are apparently still living in the age of rotary phones.
Indeed, the remark illuminates a stark yet comical divide between the sprightly, boundary-less world of crypto and the stodgy, monocle-wearing old guard of traditional finance. Where Wall Street strictly adheres to its 9-to-5, Monday-to-Friday script, crypto gleefully roars ahead 24/7 as if fueled by espresso shots and sheer cheek. Will Sundays now be declared the wild west of financial announcements? Or will Wall Street simply slap on an out-of-office reply and continue snoring? Only time—and, presumably, more tweets—will tell.
