Trump’s Crypto Income Tops $1.4 Billion in 2025, Outpacing Stocks and Real Estate

TLDR

• President Trump earned more than $1.4 billion from crypto ventures in 2025, according to his annual financial disclosure.
• Memecoin royalties brought in $635 million, making it his single largest income source.
• World Liberty Financial token sales added about $588 million to his earnings.
• Real estate and resort income, including Mar-a-Lago, totaled just over $290 million by comparison.
• Trump also holds stock in Coinbase, CME, Block Inc, and Intercontinental Exchange, along with millions in Bitcoin and Ether.

President Donald Trump made more money from cryptocurrency last year than from his real estate and resort businesses combined. That’s according to his 2025 financial disclosure, released Tuesday by the Office of Government Ethics.

The report spans more than 900 pages. It lists over $1.4 billion in income tied to crypto ventures.

That figure comes as Trump’s administration has pushed pro-crypto policies throughout the year. Regulators eased rules for digital assets while crypto markets hit record highs.

Memecoins and Token Sales Lead the Way

The biggest single source of income was Trump’s memecoin business. He earned $635 million in royalties tied to a licensing deal with Celebration Coins, the entity behind his Trump Coin.

The second-largest source was World Liberty Financial, a crypto platform his family helped launch. Token sales through that venture brought in about $588 million.

Trump also reported $197 million from selling equity in a stablecoin business. Another entity tied to an Abu Dhabi investor generated over $196 million in revenue.

He earned $6 million more through an NFT licensing deal. Combined, these crypto sources dwarfed his traditional business income.

Real estate and resort revenue, including Mar-a-Lago and his golf clubs, totaled just over $290 million for the year. That’s roughly one-fifth of what his crypto ventures brought in.

Crypto and Stock Holdings Disclosed

The filing also detailed Trump’s personal crypto holdings. He owns more than $50 million in Bitcoin and between $5 million and $25 million in Ether, held in cold wallets.

He also holds USD Coin and a token called USD Key. Additional Bitcoin and Ether holdings appear under a separate Trump Organization entity, CIC Digital LLC.

Beyond crypto, Trump disclosed stock purchases in several companies connected to the digital asset industry. These include Coinbase, CME Group, Block Inc, and Intercontinental Exchange, the parent company of the New York Stock Exchange.

His disclosure shows more stock purchases than sales in these companies over the course of 2025. Exact amounts are hard to pin down because the filing reports values in ranges rather than precise figures.

The White House defended the disclosure. Deputy Press Secretary Anna Kelly said Trump made the United States “the crypto capital of the world” and denied any conflict of interest.

The Trump Organization called the filing one of the most detailed ever submitted by a president. It said the length and depth of the report reflect its commitment to transparency.

Not everyone agreed. Public Citizen, a consumer advocacy group, called the earnings an “obscene crypto grift” in a statement Tuesday.

The group’s co-president, Robert Weissman, urged Congress to act. He said Trump’s financial ties to crypto could shape pending legislation, including the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act.

That bill remains stalled in the Senate. Lawmakers haven’t resolved whether it should bar senior officials from holding personal crypto business interests.

Vice President James David Vance also filed a disclosure this week. He reported holding between $100,000 and $500,000 in Bitcoin through a Coinbase account.
