Trump declares $1.4 billion in crypto income in first year of second term

U.S. President Donald Trump reported over $1.4 billion in income for 2025, largely derived from his family's cryptocurrency ventures, according to his latest financial disclosure. This substantial digital asset earnings highlight a potential conflict of interest between Trump's business activities and his role as president.

The disclosure filed with the U.S. Office of Government Ethics reveals that Trump's companies received nearly $800 million from World Liberty Financial, a crypto firm co-founded by Trump and his children. This income included over $520 million from cryptocurrency sales and more than $250 million from selling stakes in World Liberty. Additionally, Trump reported earning $635 million from selling his Trump-branded coins.

Neither the President nor his family have ever, nor will they ever, incur conflicts of interest.

These figures underscore the significant role cryptocurrencies now play in Trump's financial portfolio. In comparison, his financial disclosure from the previous year reported $57.35 million in income from World Liberty token sales, a ninefold increase in 2025. Recent calculations suggest the Trump family has amassed at least $2.3 billion from crypto-related projects since Trump returned to the presidency.

The White House addressed the conflict of interest concerns, with spokesperson Anna Kelly denying any wrongdoing. Kelly stated, "Neither the President nor his family have ever, nor will they ever, incur conflicts of interest." She acknowledged Trump's efforts to make the U.S. "the world capital of cryptocurrency" through presidential decrees, asserting that all administration actions serve the best interests of the American people.

All actions of President Trump and his Administration are taken in the best interest of the American people, and any alleged journalist who claims otherwise is repeating the same false and worn-out narrative that Democrats and the traditional media have been pushing for a decade.
