President Donald Trump reported more than $1 billion in income from cryptocurrency ventures in 2025, according to a federal financial disclosure released on Tuesday, June 30.
The filing shows the sharp growth of his digital asset businesses, which now rival or exceed long-established parts of his real estate empire.
Trump’s Crypto Businesses Generate More Than $1 Billion
The disclosure, filed with the Office of Government Ethics, details nearly $1.2 billion from crypto-related activities alone. Much of it came from two main projects: World Liberty Financial and CIC Digital LLC.
World Liberty Financial, a blockchain finance platform launched by Trump and his sons during the 2024 campaign, brought in more than $500 million through sales of governance tokens.
The Trump family holds a large stake and receives about 75 percent of net proceeds from many token sales after expenses.
Another crypto effort, CIC Digital, generated over $600 million from sales of meme coins featuring Trump’s image.

Both types of tokens have lost significant value since they were sold. Investors who bought in early saw steep drops, while the Trump family locked in profits from the initial offerings.
Company records and independent analyses put the family’s total crypto earnings even higher when including related deals and token distributions.
When he took office again in January 2025, the crypto businesses were still new. In the space of a year, they have outpaced revenue from much of his property portfolio, which took decades to build.
Traditional holdings like golf clubs and hotels continued to generate revenue, but crypto became the leading performer.
Crypto Outpaces Trump’s Real Estate and Consumer Brand Businesses
The disclosure also lists millions more from other branded products. Trump earned several million dollars selling Bibles, sneakers, and other merchandise.
Watches alone brought in $4.7 million. These kinds of consumer goods deals represent an expansion of his personal brand during his time in office.
Real estate remained important as the filing shows tens of millions in new fees from hotel, resort, and condo projects overseas. A property project in the United Arab Emirates contributed $10.4 million.
A Saudi Arabia development tied to a developer close to the ruling family added $9 million.
Deals in Romania and Qatar each sent about $5 million to Trump’s companies. Many of these countries were engaged in talks with the U.S. government on trade, tariffs, or security matters at the time.
Why Trump’s Crypto Income Is Drawing Ethics Questions
The crypto surge happened as the administration moved to ease regulatory pressure on the industry. The president had promised to make the United States the “crypto capital of the world.”
His policies included efforts to limit federal crackdowns and support for digital assets.
Financial disclosures for presidents are meant to provide transparency regarding potential conflicts of interest.
The president’s report covers calendar year 2025 and lists assets held in his revocable trust, of which he is the sole beneficiary.
His sons have taken prominent roles in the family businesses, including the crypto projects.
The numbers come amid major scrutiny of how presidents balance private interests with public service.
How the Financial Disclosure Breaks Down Trump’s Revenue Streams
During his first term, Trump faced questions about foreign payments to his hotels. This time, the focus has turned to digital assets, which move quickly and often involve less publicly available information than traditional real estate.
Independent reviews by outlets like Reuters have examined the token sales and estimated the Trump family’s share could exceed initial public figures.
Some transactions involved publicly traded companies acquiring large amounts of tokens, with the family benefiting from the 75 percent cut.

World Liberty Financial said it is aiming to provide financial freedom through blockchain technology.
Its governance tokens give holders some say in protocol decisions, though the Trump entities keep considerable control.
Meme coins, by contrast, are more like novelty items tied to Trump’s personal brand.
The disclosure does not include every detail of the businesses. Some holdings and future revenue streams remain private. Trump has also reported separate holdings in Bitcoin and Ethereum.
