American Bitcoin’s stock price flash crashes by 51% in less than half an hour; Trump family’s crypto assets in trouble
According to Bloomberg, on Tuesday, cryptocurrency mining company American Bitcoin Corp.'s stock price plummeted 51% within 26 minutes, marking a period of extreme market volatility and sparking concerns about the Trump family's involvement in the digital currency sector. Just one minute after Wall Street trading began, the stock dropped 33%, fell to 42% after five minutes, and by 9:56, the decline exceeded 50%. This sharp drop has made American Bitcoin a symbol of crypto market turmoil by the end of 2025 and exposed the vulnerability of several Trump family-backed crypto projects.
Trump-affiliated projects have seen declines far greater than the overall market. The World Liberty Financial (WLFI) token has fallen 51% from its peak in early September, Alt5 Sigma has crashed about 75% due to legal issues, and meme coins named after the President and First Lady have plunged 90%-99%. American Bitcoin, founded by Eric Trump, has also tumbled 75%. These fluctuations have significantly eroded the crypto wealth the Trump family accumulated earlier this year and have impacted both the digital asset industry and public confidence.
