Trump Reveals $57M Crypto Windfall

Trump Reveals $57M Crypto Windfall

Trump reports $57.4M in income linked to World Liberty Financial, a DeFi project that has raised over $550M from investors.

Donald Trump, the President of the United States, has disclosed $57.4 million in income from his involvement with World Liberty Financial, a cryptocurrency venture he supports with his sons Donald Jr. and Eric.

The specifics were disclosed in Trump’s 2025 public financial disclosure, which was submitted to the US Office of Government Ethics on June 13.

According to the filing of World Liberty Financial, Trump holds 15.75 billion governance tokens, which also grant him voting rights.

Although the document does not explain the governance tokens’ structure or market value, the substantial reported income implies that Trump has either monetized a portion of the position or that the tokens were valued for disclosure at a high internal rate.

The income is merely reported as “$57,437,927” in the filing without indicating whether the gain was achieved through token sales, staking rewards, or other methods.

World Liberty Financial Raises $550 Million

In March, World Liberty Financial disclosed that it had collectively raised approximately $550 million through its initial public token sale, which generated $200 million, and its subsequent token sale, which generated $250 million.

In September 2024, the project was initiated with a focus on dollar-pegged stablecoins and DeFi, positioning itself as a competitor to the conventional financial system.

Additionally, significant crypto investors have invested in the sector. Justin Sun, the founder of Tron, invested $30 million in November 2024, acquiring 2 billion WLFI tokens at an initial price of $0.015.

In January, Web3Port made a $10 million investment, and Oddiyana Ventures also became a strategic investor, although the exact amount was not disclosed.

Trump’s Expanded Digital Asset Portfolio

It is important to note that Trump’s disclosure reflects his extensive digital asset portfolio. In previous filings, he has disclosed revenue from NFT-based ventures, including the Trump Digital Trading Cards collection.

No new NFT income is indicated in the most recent filing.

Even though Trump’s income from these entities is either minimal or inactive, the form indicates that he maintains responsibilities in various holding companies associated with digital ventures, such as CIC Digital LLC and CIC Ventures LLC.

The President’s certification that the information is “true, complete, and correct to the best of [his] knowledge” is included in the ethics filing.

The Office of Government Ethics is responsible for reviewing the information.
