Inside Trump’s .4 billion crypto empire: Altcoins, Bitcoin—and a stake in Michael Saylor’s Strategy
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on LInkedIn



President Donald Trump is officially a crypto billionaire, with proceeds from his memecoin and family crypto company accounting for the bulk of his digital assets fortune. But the commander-in–chief has also shown an appetite for blockchain-related stocks and more exotic cryptocurrencies, according to a filing from the U.S. Office of Government Ethics released on Tuesday. 

Trump’s business entities generated more than $635 million in royalty income from his memecoin and almost $600 million through World Liberty Financial—a crypto company he cofounded with his three sons, longtime business associate Steve Witkoff, and Witkoff’s two sons. And the president pocketed nearly $197 million through DT Marks SC, a company that owns 38.5% of Stablecoin Holdco, a Miami-based stablecoin venture. 

Trump also has exposure to more niche digital assets through his crypto businesses. The entity connected to World Liberty Financial received more than $33 million in annual income from Bitcoin and over $150 million from Ethereum over the course of 2025, plus about $1.8 million from staked Ethereum. Through another company named DT Marks Defi, the president also earned more than $5 million across several altcoins, including LINK, AAVE, ENA, MOVE, and ONDO, and over $56 million from the stablecoin USDC. The president’s financial disclosure did not clearly specify how these crypto positions generated income. “Neither the president nor his family has ever engaged—or will ever engage—in conflicts of interest,” Anna Kelly, a White House spokeswoman, told Fortune in a statement. 

A January Wall Street Journal investigation revealed that the Trump family secretly sold a 49% stake in World Liberty Financial to Aryam Investment 1, a company backed by Abu Dhabi royal Sheikh Tahnoon bin Zayed Al Nahyan, who serves as the United Arab Emirates’ national security adviser. According to the president’s latest financial disclosure, his entities DT Marks Defi and DT Marks SC realized nearly $263 million in net proceeds from the sale.

World Liberty Financial did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Trump’s disclosure also showed active trading of MSTR shares, tied to Strategy, formerly MicroStrategy, across multiple investment accounts. These $15,000 to $50,000 trades gave him indirect exposure to Bitcoin. In addition, Trump’s disclosure showed buying and selling Coinbase and Robinhood shares in different investment accounts. (Previously the President’s son Eric Trump has argued that his father’s investment holdings “are maintained exclusively in fully discretionary accounts managed by independent third-party financial institutions.” He denied that the president, his family and The Trump Organization has any role in selecting, directing, approving, influencing or soliciting specific investments.)

Michael Saylor, Strategy’s executive chairman, emerged as a key crypto ally to the Trump White House. The pioneer of the world’s largest Bitcoin asset treasury attended the president’s first crypto summit at the White House in March 2025. Eric Trump has also previously stated that he and Saylor had a friendship spanning two decades. 

The prominence of crypto in Trump’s financial portfolio comes amid ongoing scrutiny of his ties to the industry. Since taking office, Trump has faced questions over his proximity to multiple crypto ventures while advancing a crypto-friendly agenda. Lawmakers have raised conflict of interest concerns, which the president has repeatedly rejected. The disclosure also lands as senators push to pass the Clarity Act, a bill that would regulate crypto market structure. Critics argue the current draft lacks adequate ethics safeguards.

“The crypto legislation heading to the Senate floor must prevent the president, vice president, senior administration officials, members of Congress, and their families from profiting off the crypto industry,” said Sen. Elizabeth Warren in a statement on Tuesday.
