Trump reports over $1.4bn income from crypto ventures
Archived

US President Donald Trump reported more than $1.4 billion in income from his family's cryptocurrency ventures in 2025, according to his latest financial disclosure filed with the US Office of Government Ethics, reports Reuters.

The filing showed that Trump's companies earned nearly $800 million from World Liberty Financial, the crypto venture he co-founded with his sons. The income included more than $520 million from crypto token sales and over $250 million from the sale of ownership interests in the business.

Trump also reported an additional $635 million from sales of his Trump-themed meme coins, underscoring the growing role of digital assets in his personal wealth.

According to Reuters, the Trump family has earned at least $2.3 billion from crypto-related projects since Trump returned to the White House in 2025.

The disclosure comes as the Trump administration has introduced a series of crypto-friendly policies, including new federal rules for stablecoins and a reduced regulatory approach by the US Department of Justice and the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Beyond crypto, Trump reported more than $80 million in income from legal settlements with media companies and $52 million from licensing his name to overseas real estate developments, primarily in the Middle East.

The filing also showed continued growth in Trump's traditional businesses. Revenue from his golf courses and resorts rose 15 percent to more than $500 million in 2025. His Mar-a-Lago club in Florida generated $77 million, up from $50 million a year earlier, while revenue at his nearby West Palm Beach golf club increased by 27 percent.

Responding to questions over potential conflicts of interest, White House spokesperson Anna Kelly said neither Trump nor his family had engaged in any conflict of interest, adding that the president had made the United States "the crypto capital of the world" through executive actions.

Although Trump's business interests are managed by his children, he remains the beneficiary of the trust that receives income from the family's assets.

Ethics experts, however, argued that the president's expanding crypto interests have renewed concerns over conflicts of interest, even though US presidents are exempt from federal ethics laws that restrict such holdings.
