Trump Family Rakes In $620M+ From Crypto: Meme coin Windfall, Token Sales, and a 20% Bitcoin Stake

U.S. President Donald Trump and his family have reportedly earned over $620 million from recent cryptocurrency ventures.

A report published Wednesday by Bloomberg stated that Trump’s crypto holdings now make up around 9% of his estimated $6 billion fortune as of June. This marks the first time digital assets have accounted for a sizable portion of his wealth.

Trump’s Crypto Empire Grows as Real Estate Shrinks to 50% of Net Worth

The increase is largely tied to his family-backed firm, World Liberty Financial, and the launch of his personal meme coin, TRUMP, which currently trades around $8.89.

The family’s push into crypto has accelerated quickly. Trump’s sons, Donald Jr. and Eric, have also taken active roles, as their holdings and ventures expand across tokenized assets, mining infrastructure, and stablecoin platforms.

According to Bloomberg, the Trump family's earnings from projects such as World Liberty Financial and TRUMP Memecoins have estimated that Trump's wealth has increased by at least $620 million in just a few months. USD1 stablecoins may earn WLFI about $100 million this year.…

In comparison, just three years ago, Trump’s wealth was still heavily concentrated in real estate, which made up 86% of his net worth in 2021. That number has since dropped to around 50%.

One of the biggest earners has been World Liberty Financial. The project includes a native token and a stablecoin, USD1. Since its launch, World Liberty has raised $550 million in token sales, with $390 million going to Trump and his three sons.

The family also reportedly holds 22.5 billion governance tokens from the project, valued at over $2 billion, though most of those tokens are currently locked. Trump’s stake in the company was also recently reduced from 60% to 40%.

In addition, the platform was used in a $2 billion transaction by Abu Dhabi-based MGX, which reportedly used the token to invest in Binance. According to estimates, the Trump-linked firm may have earned up to $100 million from that transaction alone.

Trump’s sons, Donald Jr. and Eric, have also taken direct stakes in crypto mining. The two are listed as 20% owners of American Bitcoin, a subsidiary of Hut 8, a large crypto mining firm.

The company disclosed in June that it had secured $220 million in capital to purchase mining equipment and Bitcoin. It also plans to go public through a merger with Gryphon Digital Mining.

While much of Trump’s personal fortune still sits in real estate and his media company, Truth Social, the rapid gains from crypto are shifting the structure of his financial empire.

At its peak, Truth Social helped push Trump’s net worth to over $4 billion. The company’s valuation has since declined, but his stake remains worth nearly $2 billion despite posting a $401 million loss last year.

With real estate now playing a smaller role and political ambitions still in view, Trump’s crypto involvement appears to be moving from experimental to entrenched.

Donald Trump’s memecoin, $TRUMP, which gained attention after a controversial “Presidential Dinner” for its top 220 holders and a VIP tour offer, is now facing a steep decline. Once valued at around $150 million, Trump’s reported stake is tied to TRUMP tokens that will gradually unlock over the next three years.

The token, driven largely by celebrity backing and political hype, has lost momentum since the late May dinner event. With no new endorsements and fading retail interest, TRUMP has dropped over 46%, showing the volatility of hype-based crypto projects.

Trump-Backed Ventures Accelerate Crypto Push With Bitcoin, ETFs & UAE Investment

Trump’s crypto ambitions are far from over as he advances with Bitcoin, ETFs, and token strategies.

For example, on June 13, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approved a registration statement from Trump Media and Technology Group (TMTG) tied to its $2.3 billion Bitcoin treasury initiative.

The filing covers 85 million shares, including 29 million tied to convertible notes. While the approval gives the firm flexibility to raise capital, TMTG stated it has no immediate plans to issue new securities.

This followed a May 27 announcement confirming a $2.5 billion capital raise to accumulate Bitcoin. TMTG CEO Devin Nunes called Bitcoin an “apex instrument of financial freedom,” indicating a strategic shift to make it a core part of the company’s treasury.

TMTG also filed plans on June 16 to launch a Truth Social Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF, which would directly hold both assets, with a 75/25 allocation favoring Bitcoin.

Meanwhile, World Liberty Financial (WLFI) is gearing up to release a third-party audit of its stablecoin and launch a mobile app, co-founder Zak Folkman said on June 26.

That same day, WLFI announced a $100 million token purchase by a UAE-based firm, Aqua1 Foundation, now its largest external stakeholder.

Aqua1 seeks to expand WLFI’s footprint in real-world asset tokenization, DeFi infrastructure, and stablecoin development, surpassing previous major backers like Justin Sun, who had committed $30 million.

Together, the developments reflect growing momentum behind Trump-affiliated crypto ventures.
