Trump Family Crypto Profits Hit $2.3B, Matching Investor Losses

The Trump family has collected at least $2.3 billion in crypto profits since the November 2024 election, a figure that Reuters found mirrors estimated losses among investors in Trump-linked digital assets. The sum exceeds what any US-listed company earned from crypto over the same period.

Nearly all of that money traces back to World Liberty Financial (WLF), a decentralized finance platform the family co-founded in 2024. WLF sells governance tokens. The family's stake in the entity gives them 75% of proceeds from those sales, on top of a roughly 60% ownership position that grants majority control, according to the investigation.

About $1.6 billion came from token sales and related transactions. A single 2025 token deal alone generated $500 million. In the first half of 2025, the family pulled in around $800 million from crypto-linked activities. The pace accelerated through late 2025 and into early 2026, pushing total gains past the $2.3 billion threshold by the time Reuters tallied the numbers.

Trumps risk minimal personal capital in these ventures. The profit-sharing structure at WLF means they capture the bulk of revenue from token buyers without significant skin in the game themselves.
