Trump made more than $57 million from token sales by the crypto venture he and his sons helped launch last year

U.S. President Donald Trump earned over $57 million last year from token sales tied to a crypto venture he launched with his sons, according to detailed federal financial disclosures released Friday by the Office of Government Ethics. The 230+‑page report outlines his vast holdings, including stocks, dividends, real estate, royalties, and investments.

A highlight of the disclosure is the $57.4 million Trump pocketed from the sale of World Liberty Financial tokens. Trump and his sons helped to establish the cryptocurrency investment and lending platform in the lead-up to last year’s election, raising eyebrows over potential conflicts of interest once he returned to the presidency.

Trump lent his own surname to the project and, in January (just before his inauguration), launched a “Trump” memecoin. World Liberty Financial issued 100 billion tokens, of which roughly 22.5 billion were earmarked for DT Marks DeFi, a Trump‑related company.

Once a critic of crypto, Trump has undergone a remarkable transformation. Upon regaining the White House, he embraced the sector: installing crypto‑friendly Paul Atkins to head the Securities and Exchange Commission, and initiating a federal “Strategic Bitcoin Reserve” to audit government‑held bitcoin—primarily seized through law enforcement judgments. As Vice President J.D. Vance put it at a Bitcoin conference in Las Vegas last month, cryptocurrencies now have “a champion and an ally” in the White House.

The disclosure form also details Trump’s earnings from branded merchandise. He netted $2.8 million from watch sales and $2.5 million from perfumes and sneakers. His Mar‑a‑Lago club in Florida generated more than $50 million in income, while his global golf properties added millions—including $29.1 million from his West Palm Beach course and $110.4 million from his Miami golf resort.
