Trump Family Nets $620M From Crypto Ventures, Bloomberg Reports

Trump Family Nets $620M From Crypto Ventures, Bloomberg Reports

Former U.S. President Donald Trump and his family have reportedly pocketed $620 million through a wave of cryptocurrency-related ventures, signaling a deepening presence in the digital asset space.

Bloomberg’s updated Billionaires Index, which keeps Trump’s net worth steady at $6.4 billion, reveals that a sizable chunk of that fortune now stems from crypto activities.

The report offers the first comprehensive breakdown of the family’s involvement in digital assets, including earnings from NFTs, DeFi platforms, and memecoins.

Leading the gains is a $390 million haul from the token sale of World Liberty Financial, a decentralized finance project linked to the Trump brand. Additionally, the launch of an official Trump-themed memecoin in January has reportedly generated $150 million in returns.

The family’s crypto exposure extends beyond tokens and NFTs. They also hold a 20% stake in American Bitcoin, a mining firm formed in partnership with Hut 8 and America Data Centers.

The company, which plans to go public via a merger with Gryphon Digital Mining, aims to build a Bitcoin-backed treasury reserve from its mining operations.

With earnings climbing and expansion plans underway, crypto now appears to be a cornerstone in the Trump financial empire.
