That is likely the biggest increase in wealth for any sitting president while in office, and that staggering figure comes from the president’s multiple crypto ventures.
Trump reported making $635 million in royalties from a license agreement for “Celebration Coins” connected to his crypto business CIC Digital LLC; $525 million in proceeds from token sales by World Liberty Financial, a cryptocurrency group founded by Trump and his sons; $65 million in proceeds from World Liberty Financial’s equity sale; and $196 million from a stablecoin transaction.
But some of the people who bought these cryptocurrencies didn’t do as well. $TRUMP, the cryptocurrency sold by the Trump Organization and a company run by Trump ally Fight Fight Fight, dropped in value from $74 in January 2025 to $1.72 in July 2026. The crypto asset $WLFI went from $0.45 in August 2025 to $0.05 at the end of June 2026. On the other hand, USD1, a stablecoin created by Trump’s World Liberty Financial, has more than $4.5 billion worth of tokens in circulation, according to data from CoinMarketCap.
