Donald Trump Earned Over $1 Billion from Cryptocurrency Trading Last Year

Washington DC. According to US President Donald Trump's mandatory financial report 2025, he earned over $1 billion from cryptocurrency (digital currency) trading last year.

In the detailed 927-page report released, it is mentioned that Trump earned more than $500 million from 'World Liberty Finance', a cryptocurrency company founded by his sons and the children of his special envoy Steve Bannon.

Trump and his family members receive 75 percent of the net profit of this company. Similarly, he has shown an income of $635 million from the royalty of 'Trump Meme Coin', which was launched in the market three days before taking the oath of the presidency, although the value of this digital currency has decreased significantly since its public release.

This income of Trump, who once strongly criticized cryptocurrency, calling Bitcoin a 'scam' and 'impending disaster', is much higher than in the previous year. Last year, Trump submitted a report showing a total income of $600 million.

This year, he has also earned millions of dollars from real estate business, sales of Trump brand Bibles, watches, and other items. The financial report also shows millions of dollars in other small transactions from cryptocurrency-related digital wallets.

In addition, First Lady Melania Trump's income is also included in the report. She earned $10.7 million from a licensing agreement related to her documentary released last year. Similarly, the report mentions that she earned an additional $6 million from a digital image or NFT sales agreement sold on the internet.

Although criticism has started for earning personal business and profit while in the presidency, the White House has outright denied that Trump benefited from the presidential office. White House Deputy Press Secretary Anna Kelly claimed that there was no ethical question involved and stated that Trump proudly made America the 'crypto world capital'.

The statement issued by Kelly said, 'Neither the President nor his family has ever been or will be involved in a conflict of interest. All actions of President Trump and his administration are taken for the best interests of the American people, and the so-called journalists who propagate the opposite are repeating the old and false narrative that Democrats and established media have been pushing for the past decade.'
