63% of Americans Say Trump Family Crypto Profits Inappropriate: Poll

The poll followed Trump's annual financial disclosure, released in June. Reuters calculated that the filing reported more than $1.4 billion in income tied to cryptocurrency ventures during 2025. That figure represents reported income, not the current value of his personal crypto holdings.

The disclosure included more than $1 billion in crypto-related income from World Liberty Financial and the Official Trump memecoin, crypto.news reported. Companies linked to the Trump family received almost $800 million from World Liberty Financial activities, according to Reuters. That total included over $520 million from token sales and more than $250 million from the sale of business interests.

The filing also reported approximately $635 million from licensing arrangements associated with the TRUMP token. Blockchain analysis found that many buyers recorded substantial losses while Trump-linked entities continued receiving transaction-related revenue, crypto.news reported.

These figures should not be treated as a calculation of personal net profit. Revenue flowed through several companies and agreements, and some proceeds were shared among Trump family members and business partners.

The debate comes as the Trump administration promotes legislation establishing clearer federal rules for digital assets. Lawmakers disagree over whether crypto market legislation should include restrictions on elected officials and their families. Proposed ethics provisions have become a central obstacle to advancing crypto legislation, as previously reported.

World Liberty Financial also received conditional approval on Aug. 14 from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency to establish a national trust bank. Conditional approval does not allow immediate operations. The company must satisfy the regulator's requirements before opening.

Congressional scrutiny, future financial disclosures, and the conditions attached to World Liberty's proposed trust bank will test the separation between Trump's public duties and family business interests. The poll data suggest most Americans are not convinced the current arrangements handle those concerns.
