Trump's Crypto Windfall Surpasses Major US Crypto Companies' Earnings

President Donald Trump has come under scrutiny for his cryptocurrency earnings, which reportedly exceeded $1.4 billion in 2025 from various ventures including NFT collections and tokenized real estate projects.

The figure is higher than the combined net income of major U.S. publicly traded crypto companies such as Coinbase, MicroStrategy, and Marathon Digital Holdings that year.

When asked about the report during a press conference, Trump dismissed any suggestion of wrongdoing, stating 'There's nothing illegal about making money in America.' He claimed he was unaware of the specific financial details at the time.
