Donald Trump’s family earned more than $ 1.4 billion on cryptocurrency in just one year
US President Donald Trump’s family is actively expanding its digital asset business, with revenues from cryptocurrency projects totaling about $ 1.4 billion last year. Bloomberg writes about it. The total assets are estimated at $ 6.8 billion, with cryptocurrencies becoming the main source of growth alongside new areas such as weapons production, rare earth metals, and artificial intelligence.
Three projects generated the largest revenues. The World Liberty Financial crypto platform, created by Trump and his sons, earned about $ 390 million from token sales, and the deal with Alt5 Sigma added more than $ 500 million. The meme-coin OFFICIAL TRUMP, launched before the inauguration, is estimated at $ 280 million. The mining business of American Bitcoin in partnership with Hut 8 stands out, where Eric Trump’s share is $ 114 million, despite the sharp drop in shares.
At the same time, the drop in the value of Trump Media & Technology Group shares, which lost 66% over the year, partially offset the growth of crypto profits. The company tried to diversify into finance, digital assets, and even fusion energy, but the market remained unstable.
Bloomberg also notes that the family owns its own tokens worth about $ 3.8 billion, which are currently blocked and not included in the calculations. The USD1 stablecoin has become an additional source of income, with a business worth more than $ 300 million.
In addition to cryptocurrencies, the Trumps receive income from real estate and the 1789 Capital venture fund, which has raised about $ 2 billion in investments and invested more than $ 800 million in startups. Thus, the year after Donald Trump’s re-election as US president was marked by the formation of a large-scale crypto empire of his family.
