Forbes: Trump's ill-timed Bitcoin purchase caused his personal wealth to shrink by $490 million.

Bitcoin just fell below $100,000 today, and Forbes published an article mocking Trump, stating, "Buying, especially at high prices, doesn't necessarily make you richer." The article mentions that Trump, who was once skeptical of cryptocurrencies, has now become a "leading cryptocurrency advocate." This summer, he invested $2 billion in Bitcoin through Trump Media, with an estimated cost of $115,000 per coin, and initial performance was decent. However, in the past month, the price of Bitcoin has fallen by 17%, and Trump Media's stock price has plummeted by 24%, indirectly reducing Trump's personal wealth by $490 million.
