Trump Discloses More Than $1.1 Billion In Crypto Earnings

President Donald Trump earned more than $1.1 billion from cryptocurrency last year, according to an annual financial disclosure report released Tuesday.

The 927-page report shows an unprecedented windfall in income for the president, whose haul last year totals at least $2.2 billion when also factoring in other holdings, The New York Times reports. This includes more than $515 million from his family’s World Liberty Financial token sales and $65 million from sales of equity in WLF’s holding company. He also garnered $635 million in royalties from the meme coin that launched days before his inauguration.

These earnings significantly boosted his net worth, which Forbes estimated in March to be $6.5 billion — up $1.4 billion from a year prior. As of this spring, before Tuesday’s disclosure, Forbes had ranked the president 645th among the world’s 3,428 billionaires.

For the past several years, Trump’s family has been building a wider crypto empire — which has directly expanded his overall fortune — and Tuesday’s disclosure captures only a part of the at least $2.3 billion dollars the family has earned across four crypto ventures. The president and his family launched the WLF project in September 2024 before secretly selling a 49% stake to a firm backed by an Abu Dhabi royal, in a deal inked by Trump’s son Eric Trump.

The president reported more than $290 million in earnings last year from his golf and club properties, including his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida, and millions in licensing for use of his name and personal brand. Legal settlements from some of the country’s largest companies also drove a portion of Trump’s earnings last year, with the president receiving at least $86.5 million in payouts from Meta, ABC, CBS, YouTube and X.

Several instances of Trump’s stock trading were timed with ongoing deals and trials in which the federal government was involved. The president purchased stock in Nvidia one week after the AI giant entered an export agreement that gave the U.S. government 15% of its Chinese H20 chip sales. Trump bought Amazon stock on Sept. 23, the same day the company entered a trial for a lawsuit brought by the Federal Trade Commission — which Amazon settled with a $1 billion civil penalty payment to the FTC.

“Neither the President nor his family has ever engaged — or will ever engage — in conflicts of interest,” White House spokeswoman Anna Kelly said in a recent statement. “All actions by President Trump and his administration are taken in the best interest of the American people.”

Other notable disclosures in Tuesday’s report include an investment in gold bars valued between $500,000 and $1 million, as well as $370,000 in gifts, primarily tickets to sports events.

First lady Melania Trump netted more than $10.7 million from her eponymous documentary, and reported more than $6 million from a license agreement to sell “NFTs and other collectibles.”
