Donald Trump’s latest financial disclosure revealed that he earned upwards of $1.4 billion last year from various cryptocurrency ventures, licensing agreements, and his real estate assets. The filing, submitted to the U.S. Office of Government Ethics, highlights considerable income tied to his family’s crypto businesses alongside earnings from licensing and property operations.
The most significant single source reported was $500 million from World Liberty Financial, a cryptocurrency venture jointly established by Trump and his sons Eric, Donald Jr., and Barron. In addition, Trump disclosed $635 million from sales of $TRUMP meme coins, marketed as “Celebration Coins” and issued through CIC Digital LLC. Despite the large revenue, the meme coin has suffered a sharp decline of over 90% in value since its launch.
The disclosures also show $80 million in revenue generated through licensing deals and settlements related to lawsuits involving various media outlets. Trump-branded merchandise contributed additional income, with Trump watches alone generating nearly $5 million.
Real estate continued to be a lucrative segment for Trump’s portfolio. The disclosure listed nearly $300 million in income from his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida, complemented by earnings from his golf properties in Bedminster, New Jersey, and Washington, D.C.
The extensive submission spans more than 900 pages, making it significantly more detailed than other senior officials’ filings, such as Vice President JD Vance’s 17-page disclosure. Vance reported earnings from book sales, investments in firms like Narya Capital and the Rise of the Rest Seed Fund, and Bitcoin holdings valued up to $500,000.
Financial details relating to First Lady Melania Trump were also included. She recorded $10.7 million in net proceeds from a licensing agreement tied to the Amazon documentary "Melania," alongside over $6 million earned from licensing deals for NFTs and other collectibles.
