Over 1 Million Crypto Investors Post Losses on TRUMP Meme Coin; Trump Earned $635M in Royalties

According to Wall Street Journal data, more than 1.48 million cryptocurrency wallets holding the Official Trump (TRUMP) meme coin are currently underwater, with approximately two-thirds of all TRUMP purchasers facing unrealized losses. Roughly 85% of secondary-market buyers of the World Liberty Financial (WLFI) token are also in the red.

Meanwhile, Trump's latest financial disclosure revealed he earned approximately $635 million in royalties from his crypto ventures last year. The TRUMP meme coin, launched in January 2025, experienced a dramatic collapse: its market cap plummeted from nearly $15 billion to around $404 million, representing a roughly 97% decline. Investor Ross Gerber criticized the ventures as a "grift," arguing they damaged confidence in the broader crypto market.
