Trump's 2025 financial disclosure shows crypto ventures generated over $1.4 billion, surpassing real estate income for the first time. The 927-page filing details NFT licensing, exchange fees, and DeFi revenue.
President Donald Trump's 2025 financial disclosure, released Tuesday by the US Office of Government Ethics, shows cryptocurrency ventures generated more income than his real estate and resort holdings for the first time. The 927-page filing reports over $1.4 billion in income tied to digital asset businesses.
The disclosure covers Trump's financial interests through 2025. Crypto-related income came from a mix of NFT licensing deals, a stake in a decentralized finance platform, and revenue from his family's crypto exchange, the filing shows. The $1.4 billion figure includes realized gains from token sales and licensing fees paid by third-party projects using the Trump brand.
Real estate holdings, which for decades formed the core of Trump's wealth, reported roughly $800 million in revenue across hotels, golf courses, and commercial properties. The shift marks a structural change in how the Trump Organization generates cash. Crypto income now accounts for more than half of disclosed revenue, up from less than 10% in the 2023 filing.
The filing does not break out net profit for each venture. Gross revenue figures include costs, royalties, and platform fees. The crypto exchange, which launched in late 2024, reported over $400 million in transaction fee revenue. NFT licensing deals contributed another $350 million, the document states.
Ethics watchdogs have raised questions about conflicts of interest. Trump retains ownership of the businesses while serving as president, and the crypto ventures operate in a sector facing new regulatory scrutiny. The White House did not comment on the disclosure.
The Office of Government Ethics filing is a standard annual requirement for executive branch officials. Trump's 2024 disclosure reported roughly $500 million in crypto-related income. The 2025 figure nearly triples that, reflecting both higher token valuations and expanded operations.
A separate section of the filing lists Trump's liabilities, including over $200 million in loans tied to commercial properties. No crypto-related debts were reported.
