Trump Discloses Over $1.2 Billion in Crypto Income for 2025
Taylor Wilson
A 927-page financial disclosure filed by the U.S. Office of Government Ethics shows President Trump earned at least $1.2 billion from crypto and meme-coin ventures in 2025 — the first time the scale of his in-office crypto interests has been quantified, sharpening scrutiny over potential conflicts of interest.
Where did the $1.2 billion come from?
Two main streams: over $588 million from sales tied to World Liberty Financial, plus $636 million in royalties from Celebration Coins.
World Liberty Financial was co-founded by Trump himself, his sons, and senior U.S. diplomat Steven Witkoff; Witkoff's son Zach Witkoff serves as CEO.
This means → the income is not from a passive investment — it flows from a crypto business the Trump family directly operates.
How did these numbers come to light?
They appear in the annual financial disclosure published Tuesday by the U.S. Office of Government Ethics — a 927-page document.
The filing also covers income from Trump's hotels and golf resorts.
In plain terms = this is a legally required presidential "asset inventory," not an investigation — but because it is an official filing, the figures carry high credibility.
Why does this matter?
This is the first time the scale of Trump's crypto-asset interests during his presidency has been quantified — previously, observers knew he was involved in crypto but not how much he was earning.
The core tension: he is simultaneously a crypto-policy maker and a major crypto beneficiary.
This reflects an unresolved governance question: whenever the president signs or promotes any crypto regulation, markets and the public will ask — does this policy help or hurt his own business?
