WASHINGTON, July 1 (ANI) — President Donald Trump generated approximately $1.2 billion in earnings from cryptocurrency-related ventures in 2025, according to a financial disclosure released by the U.S. Office of Government Ethics.
The disclosure, spanning more than 900 pages, was filed under a 1978 federal law requiring the president and vice president to publicly report their income, assets, and financial interests.
The filing shows that Trump earned nearly $550 million through his association with World Liberty Financial (WLF), a cryptocurrency platform launched in September 2024 with the backing of Trump and members of his family.
According to the disclosure, the platform raised $550 million through the initial sale of its WLFI token. The filing also states that Trump and his three sons, through an intermediary company known as DT Marks DeFi, acquired an additional 22.5 billion WLFI tokens, currently valued at approximately $1.3 billion.
World Liberty Financial expanded its offerings in April 2025 with the launch of a stablecoin pegged to the U.S. dollar.
The disclosure also reports that Trump received $635 million in royalty payments through a licensing agreement related to the $TRUMP cryptocurrency, which was launched shortly before his inauguration in January 2025.
Outside the cryptocurrency sector, Trump reported more than $290 million in income from his golf clubs and luxury resorts, including Mar-a-Lago in Florida, Trump National Doral, Trump National Bedminster, Trump National Jupiter, and Trump National Washington, D.C.
The filing also shows that Trump earned several million dollars through investments in publicly traded cryptocurrency companies, including the digital asset exchange Coinbase.
According to the disclosure, Trump’s financial assets remain held in a trust managed by his eldest son, Donald Trump Jr. The filing notes that the trust can be dissolved at any time, allowing Trump to regain direct control of the assets after his second presidential term.
The documents also detail major stock purchases made during 2025.
On Aug. 18, Trump reported acquiring shares of Apple, Microsoft, and Nvidia, with each investment valued between $5 million and $25 million. Under federal disclosure rules, asset values are reported within broad ranges rather than exact amounts.
The filing also shows that Trump purchased Amazon shares valued between $500,000 and $1 million on Sept. 23.
In addition, Trump reported receiving more than $86 million from legal settlements involving several media and technology companies, including ABC, CBS, Meta, YouTube, and X.
Other reported assets include an investment in gold bullion valued between $500,000 and $1 million.
The president also disclosed receiving gifts valued at more than $370,000, consisting primarily of tickets to sporting events.
The filing lists additional income from publishing and licensing agreements, including $4.7 million from Trump Watches, $208,486 from The Greenwood Bible, $67,634 from Trump Sneakers & Fragrances, and $35,920 from the “45” Guitar.
Book royalties totaled $590,730 for Letters to Trump, $1,893,965 for Save America, and $552,685 for A MAGA Journey.
The disclosure also includes a $200,000 speaking fee that Trump received for a charitable event held in Naples, Florida, in December 2022.
