Donald Trump Crypto Holdings Now Make Up 8% of His Net Worth

Donald Trump’s crypto portfolio is making headlines. A recent Bloomberg report reveals that Donald Trump holds at least 8% of his net worth in Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. This revelation comes amid growing speculation that Trump’s pro-crypto stance may not be just political, but personal.

Donald Trump Net Worth: Real Estate, Truth Social, and Crypto

As of now, Trump’s total net worth is estimated at $6.4 billion, largely made up of:

  • Real estate assets, including 19+ properties valued over $50 million each
  • His stake in Trump Media & Technology Group (Truth Social)
  • And now, a rapidly growing share of crypto holdings

While Trump’s real estate empire remains the backbone of his business, the report suggests that cryptocurrencies are becoming a larger slice of Trump’s financial pie.

World Liberty Financial: The Core of Trump’s Crypto Holdings

The centerpiece of Donald Trump’s crypto wealth is a project called World Liberty Financial (WLFI). 

  • WLFI has raised over $550 million from token sales
  • $390 million of that amount reportedly went directly to the Trump family
  • Trump and his family also own 22.5 billion WLFI tokens, valued at approximately $2 billion (though currently non-transferable, hence not included in his official net worth)

USD1 Stablecoin and TRUMP Memecoin Fuel Trump’s Crypto Empire

Trump’s crypto holdings don’t stop with WLFI. The report highlights two other major assets in his portfolio:

1. USD1 Stablecoin

  • Market Cap: $2.2 billion+
  • 24H Trading Volume: $1.5 billion+
  • Annual Earnings from Reserves: $100 million

2. TRUMP Memecoin

  • Market Cap: $1.79 billion
  • 24H Trading Volume: $269 million
  • Total Supply: 1 billion TRUMP tokens
  • Circulating Supply: ~200 million
  • CIC Digital, the firm controlling 80% of TRUMP tokens, is reportedly linked to the Trump Organization

Trump Steps Into the Crypto Mining Business

Donald Trump has a 20% stake in American Bitcoin, a U.S.-based crypto mining firm. The company recently merged with Gryphon Digital Mining and is now valued at over $3 billion.

This move places Trump directly in the mining sector, further diversifying his crypto interests.

Final Thoughts

While Trump’s public support for cryptocurrencies has often made headlines, this new report suggests something more: Donald Trump’s crypto holdings are now a central piece of his fortune. With over $500 million directly tied to crypto and even more in token valuations, Trump may be one of the most crypto-exposed political figures in the world. As the next election cycle heats up, Trump’s net worth and growing crypto empire are likely to remain in the spotlight.

FAQs

How did Donald Trump accumulate such a large crypto portfolio, and when did he start investing in crypto?

Donald Trump’s significant crypto wealth rapidly grew, especially after October 2024. It stems from the launch of his own meme coins ($TRUMP, $MELANIA) and a substantial stake in World Liberty Financial, a crypto exchange affiliated with his family. He has also directly engaged with the crypto mining sector.

What is World Liberty Financial (WLFI), and how does it generate value for the Trump family?

World Liberty Financial (WLFI) is a crypto venture co-established by Donald Trump, with his sons Eric, Donald Jr., and Barron listed as Web3 ambassadors. It generates value through token sales (raising over $550 million), with a Trump family entity receiving 75% of net revenues from these sales and holding 22.5 billion WLFI tokens.

How does Trump’s crypto wealth compare to other political figures or billionaires?

Donald Trump is likely one of the most crypto-exposed political figures globally, with over 8% of his estimated $6.4 billion net worth tied to crypto. While exact comparisons with other politicians are hard, his direct involvement in crypto projects and substantial holdings make him an outlier among major political figures. Billionaires like Elon Musk hold far greater crypto wealth.
