U.S. President Donald Trump reportedly earned tens of millions of dollars in 2024 through crypto investments, branded merchandise, and publishing royalties, according to a newly released federal financial disclosure filed with the Office of Government Ethics.
The disclosure reveals Trump’s personal cryptocurrency holdings were valued between $1 million and $5 million. The report also shows World Liberty Financial, linked to his branding empire, generated $57.4 million in income last year. In addition to digital assets, Trump reported owning gold bars worth between $250,000 and $500,000, along with various traditional investments, including money market funds, equities, Treasury bonds, and extensive real estate.
Trump’s NFT ventures added another layer to his revenue, bringing in $100,000 directly from non-fungible token sales and an additional $1 million through related licensing fees. The former president also earned over $11 million in royalties from branded merchandise. Notably, this included $3 million for his “Save America” coffee table book, $2.8 million from watches, $2.5 million from Trump-branded sneakers and fragrances, and $1.3 million from a religious publication titled “The Greenwood Bible.”
These assets are reportedly held in a trust managed by his children. The 234-page disclosure highlights the scale and diversity of Trump’s income sources, contrasting sharply with Vice President JD Vance’s modest 15-page filing, which made no mention of cryptocurrency holdings.
The White House has yet to comment on Trump’s financial disclosure or crypto portfolio. As crypto remains a polarizing topic in U.S. politics, Trump’s significant digital asset holdings and NFT-related income are likely to attract further public and media attention ahead of the election cycle.
