Trump's $1.2B Crypto Windfall Sparks Conflict-of-Interest Concerns

A bombshell financial disclosure from former US President Donald Trump has revealed over $1.2 billion in cryptocurrency earnings, sparking controversy and debate about conflict-of-interest questions.

The 2025 financial disclosure, published on June 30, 2026, shows that the majority of Trump's crypto-related income came from two sources: the TRUMP memecoin and World Liberty Financial, a decentralized finance project launched by Trump's family in 2024.

The TRUMP memecoin generated more than $635 million in royalties alone, while World Liberty Financial accounted for over $500 million in earnings, with token-sale proceeds ranging from $236 million to $520 million depending on the valuation methodology applied.
