Trump Pocketed Over $1 Billion in Crypto Earnings Last Year

U.S. President Donald Trump has amassed over $1 billion in crypto earnings since embracing digital assets on the campaign trail, according to his 2025 financial disclosure. This windfall comes despite the broader crypto market's slump, with Bitcoin down around 50% from its all-time high.

The president earned $635 million in royalties from his memecoin business and more than $500 million from token sales connected to World Liberty Financial, where he holds a stake. Trump also disclosed holding significant amounts of various cryptocurrencies under DT Marks Defi LLC, including Bitcoin, Ethereum's ether, USDC stablecoin, and others.

White House spokespeople did not comment on the disclosures, which included several mentions of purchases and sales of Coinbase's Class A stock through different investment accounts controlled by the president. Trump has maintained his crypto ties despite criticism over conflict-of-interest complaints during the debate over the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act.
