US President Donald Trump made more than $1 billion (£750m) last year from cryptocurrency business dealings, according to his mandatory financial report for 2025.
The figures were laid out in a lengthy 927-page disclosure covering his first year back in office.
Where the money came from
Trump reported $635 million in royalties from a Trump meme coin, which he launched just three days before taking office.
The token has since plunged in value.
He also disclosed over $500 million in income from World Liberty Financial, a cryptocurrency firm founded by his own sons and the children of his special envoy, Steve Witkoff.
Trump and family members receive 75% of that company’s net proceeds.
Beyond crypto, he earned millions more from real estate, Trump-themed Bibles, watches, and other items.
The disclosure also showed several smaller transactions worth several million dollars tied to sales from various digital wallets holding such assets.
A sharp reversal
Trump had previously criticized cryptocurrency, famously calling Bitcoin a “scam” and a “disaster waiting to happen.”
The 2025 report marks a significant jump from the year prior, when he disclosed over $600 million in income.
White House response
The White House denied that Trump was profiting from the presidency.
Deputy press secretary Anna Kelly said Trump had proudly made the US “the crypto capital of the world.”
She added:
“Neither the President nor his family has ever engaged - or will ever engage - in conflicts of interest.”
First Lady Melania Trump also listed income, including $10.7 million from a documentary license agreement and $6 million tied to the sale of NFTs.
