President Donald Trump’s second term has brought a surge in his family’s wealth, driven by cryptocurrency ventures. A Financial Times investigation reports over $1 billion in pre-tax profit linked to Trump’s digital asset operations. Trump’s son Eric confirmed, “The actual profits were probably more.”
World Liberty Financial Drives Billion-Dollar Windfall
Trump’s sons and close allies established World Liberty Financial, a crypto company that has rapidly grown since its launch last year. The firm raised billions by selling tokens and stablecoins while developing a crypto-lending platform. Its website lists Trump as “co-founder emeritus,” underlining his formal connection.
In June, TRUMP disclosed $57.4 million in income from World Liberty Financial, which sparked questions about ethics and transparency. The firm’s valuation jumped in September after a token unlock boosted the Trump family’s stake to $5 billion. The Financial Times estimates that the family earned $550 million this year from WLFI.
In August, ALT5 Sigma Corporation announced plans to raise $1.5 billion through stock sales to fund WLFI’s corporate treasury. The expansion follows growing investor interest in Trump’s crypto activities, with WLFI now among the most valuable private crypto ventures. Trump’s growing wealth has become a central focus of financial and political discussions.
TRUMP Memecoin Generates $362 Million in Profit
The OFFICIAL TRUMP memecoin contributed significantly to the family’s crypto gains with $362 million in profit, the FT confirmed. Though the token’s value has dropped over 90% from its all-time high, trading activity remains strong. The coin’s revenue stems from transaction fees and high-volume sales during peak demand.
Despite the sharp decline in market price, the family continues supporting the coin through planned buybacks and liquidity programs. The token gained early momentum through aggressive marketing and Trump’s political brand, drawing large volumes from supporters. This strategy enabled fast monetization even amid falling prices.
Last week, the team behind the TRUMP coin began raising $200 million to build a digital asset treasury. Their goal is to stabilize the coin’s market value through structured buybacks. Trump’s brand continues to power despite recent losses in token valuation.
MELANIA and Stablecoin Projects Add to Growing Wealth
The Official Melania Meme token also generated $65 million for the Trump family, although its value has dropped over 99%. It benefited early from coordinated promotions and market enthusiasm around Trump-affiliated assets. Trading fees and initial sales formed the bulk of its earnings.
Additionally, USD1, the stablecoin launched in April by WLFI, delivered $42 million in profit to the Trump family. It quickly became the world’s fifth-largest stablecoin, with a $2.68 billion market capitalization, according to CoinMarketCap. The stablecoin’s growth reflects investor confidence in Trump’s brand-linked financial products.
