Trump’s 2025 Financial Disclosure Reveals $1.2 Billion in Crypto Earnings

President Trump earned at least US$1.2 billion (AU$1.74 billion) from cryptocurrency ventures in 2025, according to his annual financial disclosure, cementing digital assets as one of the largest revenue streams tied to the sitting president’s business empire.

The 927-page filing was released Tuesday by the U.S. Office of Government Ethics and covers the 2025 calendar year, spanning income from hotels, golf resorts, and a rapidly expanded roster of crypto ventures.

Where the Money Came From

The single largest crypto contributor was the TRUMP memecoin, run through CIC Digital LLC, which brought in roughly US$635 million (AU$921 million). Almost all of that came as royalties from a licensing agreement with Celebration Coins. 

The token launched on the Solana network in January 2025, days before Trump returned to office, and now trades near US$1.66 (AU$2.41) after falling about 98% from its January high, leaving late buyers deep underwater even as the licensing royalties flowed to the president.

World Liberty Financial, the decentralised-finance and stablecoin venture co-founded by Trump, his sons, and administration diplomat Steven Witkoff, contributed more than US$588 million (AU$853 million) in net proceeds from token sales. 

Together, the two ventures account for the bulk of the reported crypto income. CIC Digital also held at least US$60 million (AU$87 million) in assorted cryptocurrencies across digital wallets, separate from the president’s personal token positions.

Beyond the venture income, Trump reported holding over US$50 million (AU$72.5 million) in Bitcoin and between US$5 million (AU$7.25 million) and US$25 million (AU$36.25 million) in Ethereum, among other digital assets.
