President Trump earned at least US$1.2 billion from cryptocurrency ventures in 2025, according to his annual financial disclosure released Tuesday by the U.S. Office of Government Ethics. The TRUMP memecoin generated approximately US$635 million in royalties through CIC Digital LLC, while World Liberty Financial contributed more than US$588 million in token-sale proceeds. The 927-page filing revives conflict-of-interest concerns as Congress debates cryptocurrency regulations, with Trump holding over US$50 million in Bitcoin and up to US$25 million in Ethereum among other digital assets.
TRUMP Memecoin Generated US$635 Million in Licensing Royalties
The TRUMP memecoin, operated through CIC Digital LLC, contributed roughly US$635 million in income. Almost all revenue came as royalties from a licensing agreement with Celebration Coins. The token launched on the Solana network in January 2025, days before Trump returned to office. It now trades near US$1.66 after falling approximately 98% from its January high, leaving late buyers deep underwater even as licensing royalties flowed to the president.
World Liberty Financial Contributed US$588 Million in Token Sales
World Liberty Financial, the decentralised-finance and stablecoin venture co-founded by Trump, his sons, and administration diplomat Steven Witkoff, generated more than US$588 million in net proceeds from token sales. Together with the TRUMP memecoin, these two ventures account for the bulk of the reported crypto income. CIC Digital also held at least US$60 million in assorted cryptocurrencies across digital wallets, separate from the president's personal token positions.
Trump Holds Over US$50 Million in Bitcoin and Ethereum
Beyond venture income, Trump reported holding over US$50 million in Bitcoin and between US$5 million and US$25 million in Ethereum, among other digital assets. The 2025 financial disclosure covers income from hotels, golf resorts, and a rapidly expanded roster of crypto ventures.
