Vance Quietly Doubled His Bitcoin Bet — Here’s What His Latest Filing Shows

TLDR

• JD Vance disclosed Bitcoin holdings worth $250,001–$500,000 in his 2025 OGE financial filing
• The Bitcoin is held through a Coinbase account, not self-custodied
• His position has grown five-fold since his first Senate disclosure in 2022
• Trump’s filing shows over $50 million in Bitcoin and $1 billion in crypto-related revenue
• Both Vance and Trump have publicly backed Bitcoin and pushed for regulatory clarity

Vice President JD Vance reported holding between $250,001 and $500,000 in Bitcoin in his 2025 annual financial disclosure. The filing is an OGE Form 278e, which all senior federal officials are required to submit each year.

Vance holds his Bitcoin through a Coinbase account. The form shows no reported income from the position, and no income above $200 from the holding.

OGE rules require filers to report asset values in set brackets, not exact figures. That means the filing does not state how many Bitcoin Vance owns, when he bought them, or their precise market value at the time of filing.

His Bitcoin position has grown over time. When Vance first disclosed it as a Senate candidate in 2022, the value was reported in the $100,001 to $250,000 range. By the time he filed as the vice presidential nominee in 2024, it had moved up to the $250,001 to $500,000 bracket, where it remains today.

At the Bitcoin 2025 Conference in Las Vegas, Vance told the crowd he was one of the only candidates running for office who actually owned Bitcoin when he ran for Senate. He said he still holds a fair amount today.

Vance’s Broader Financial Picture

Bitcoin is just one part of Vance’s overall portfolio. A ProPublica review of the same filing puts his total reported assets between $6.1 million and $22 million or more.

His largest positions are in exchange-traded funds held through Charles Schwab. These include between $1 million and $5 million each in the Invesco QQQ Trust and the SPDR S&P 500 ETF.

The filing also lists a promissory note from Narya Capital Management, his former venture firm, valued at $1 million to $5 million. Vance resigned as a partner there after joining the Senate.

Other assets include real estate in Washington D.C., properties in Ohio and Kentucky, retirement accounts, college savings plans for his children, and royalties from his book “Hillbilly Elegy.”

On the liabilities side, Vance reports a Navy Federal Credit Union mortgage worth $250,000 to $500,000 and a Charles Schwab line of credit.

How Trump’s Filing Compares

Trump’s disclosure, released at the same time, shows a much larger crypto position. He reported over $50 million in self-custodied Bitcoin held in cold storage, along with more than $1 billion in crypto-related revenue and proceeds.

Unlike Vance, Trump holds his Bitcoin outside of an exchange, in cold storage. Vance’s holding sits on a regulated platform and makes up a small share of his total net worth.

Both men have publicly backed Bitcoin and called for clearer crypto regulation. The current administration has also backed a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve as part of its broader policy agenda.

The 2025 OGE filings cover the prior calendar year and are typically due in May. Public aggregation by outlets like ProPublica can follow weeks later, which is why these disclosures drew fresh attention on June 30, 2026
