Donald Trump’s youngest son earned $ 150 million in cryptocurrency

19-year-old Barron Trump, the youngest son of US President Donald Trump and Melania, has rapidly increased his wealth thanks to cryptocurrencies. According to Forbes, his net worth has reached $ 150 million, with $ 80 million of this amount earned in the last few months alone. Barron’s portfolio also includes nearly 2.3 billion World Liberty Financial (WLFI) tokens, which, if sold, could bring in another $ 525 million.

It was Barron who initiated the Trump family’s entry into the crypto market. At the end of 2024, he convinced his parents and brothers to launch World Liberty Financial, a company specializing in digital assets. Donald Trump’s sons announced this project in August 2024. Barron spent the summer of 2025 meeting with business partners and closing deals, after which he returned to his studies at New York University in Washington.

Donald Trump’s second presidential term has significantly increased the well-being of his children. Donald Trump Jr. raised his net worth tenfold in a year, to $ 500 million. Eric Trump increased his wealth from $ 40 million to $ 750 million thanks to cryptocurrencies and business in the Middle East. Ivanka Trump is worth $ 100 million, and her husband Jared Kushner is worth $ 1 billion.

Donald Trump himself has also become a major beneficiary of the cryptocurrency fever. His personal income increased by $ 3 billion over the year, of which $ 2 billion came from investments in crypto projects. In June 2025, he declared more than $ 57 million in profits from the sale of WLFI tokens. The total wealth of the 45th and 47th US president increased by 70% and now amounts to $ 7.3 billion. In the Forbes 400 ranking, he rose 118 steps to 201st place.

Melania Trump, who has a crypto wallet with $ 20 million in assets, has launched her own meme-coin, MELANIA. Its capitalization is estimated at about $ 200 million. Thus, almost the entire Trump family is actively involved in the development of their own crypto empire.
