World Liberty Financial, the decentralized-finance project linked to Donald Trump’s family, appears to have added tens of million of dollars worth of the Ether cryptocurrency after crypto markets crashed during the weekend as the US president briefly imposed tariffs on Mexico and Canada.

Eric Trump publicly suggested it's a "great time" to invest in Ether, as the family crypto venture moved its Ether holdings.

But Ether, like its bigger peer Bitcoin, benefited from dip-buying, especially as Trump postponed the trade tariffs against Canada and Mexico by 30 days. Bitcoin jumped 8.2% to $101,112.0 on Tuesday, recovering from a slump to $91,000 on Monday.
