Staggering amount of money Trump added to his networth thanks to his crypto investments
US President Donald Trump is no stranger to controversy or wealth, but even by his standards, the amount he’s made through crypto in the past year is nothing short of jaw-dropping.
According to a Bloomberg Billionaires Index report, Trump has pocketed at least $620 million in a matter of months thanks to a series of crypto-fueled ventures, making digital assets the most profitable slice of his business empire.
While his overall net worth has hovered around the $6.4 billion mark, it’s clear where the real cash is coming from these days. Leading the charge is World Liberty Financial, a blockchain platform backed by the Trump family that has launched its own token and a stablecoin called USD1.
Bloomberg estimates that out of the $550 million raised through token sales, a staggering $390 million went straight to the Trumps.

That’s before even counting the 22.5 billion World Liberty-branded tokens they’re holding — which, as of June, had a market value of more than $2 billion. These tokens aren’t factored into Trump’s net worth due to restrictions on transferring them.
To put that in perspective, the Trump Organisation only reported $34 million from real estate licensing deals last year.
Eric Trump, executive vice president of the Trump Organisation, said: “I am incredibly proud of our wonderful company. We have never been stronger”.
Another major player in Trump’s crypto windfall is a memecoin bearing his name, which was released over his inauguration weekend. Between the Trump Organisation and its affiliate CIC Digital, they hold 80 percent of the token supply.
Bloomberg reckons Trump’s personal stake in the token is worth around $150 million after accounting for liquidity discounts and trading revenue. Even more jaw-dropping is the fact that a further 800 million coins — estimated to be worth over $7 billion — will vest over the next three years.
On the more traditional side of things, Trump National Doral, the golf resort in Miami, saw its value shoot from $350 million to $1.5 billion after it got approval to build 1500 luxury condos earlier this year.
His media company, Trump Media & Technology Group Corp., which owns Truth Social, also made headlines after briefly bumping up his net worth by $4 billion in October. The current valuation of his stake sits at around $2 billion. The company is now reportedly shifting focus to finance and Bitcoin.
And it doesn’t stop there. Trump and his partners now own 20 percent of American Bitcoin — a new venture set to go public via a merger with Gryphon Digital Mining. Despite holding mining equipment with a book value of just $120 million, the company has somehow been valued at over $3 billion.
Trump’s June 2025 financial disclosure backs up the hype, listing more than $600 million in income from crypto ventures and merchandise through the end of 2024. That includes $57 million from World Liberty token sales, $320 million in memecoin fees, and more than $400 million tied to decentralised finance projects.
So, no matter the political situation with Trump, the President’s crypto gamble is paying off in a massive way.
