Trump disclosed assets, millions in cryptocurrency and income from golf resorts
The President of the United States, Donald Trump, has released his first asset declaration of his current term in office. The document reveals, among other things, high income from his family’s cryptocurrency activities, which amounts to tens of millions of dollars, and other property holdings. For example, according to Reuters, Trump received $57.35 million (approximately CZK 1.2 billion) from the sale of tokens to World Liberty Financial, a cryptocurrency company. In addition, he owns 15.75 billion of the firm’s so-called governance tokens, which give their holders voting rights.
The admission was signed on June 13, but it does not specify for which period the data applies. However, based on the information available, particularly the cryptocurrency data, the document appears to capture the situation until approximately the end of December 2024. This means that much of the proceeds from the Trump family’s more recent cryptocurrency activities are not yet included.
In early 2025, Trump unveiled his own meme coin-type cryptocurrency. He was estimated to have earned up to $320 million (over CZK 6.9 billion) from the fees generated by this digital currency alone. However, it is unclear how this revenue was divided between Trump and his business partners. Meme coins are cryptocurrencies associated with a specific personality or brand, often without a deeper technological function.
Trump’s asset portfolio is broad – it includes cryptocurrencies, real estate and a stake in Trump Media & Technology Group, which runs the social network Truth Social. It is this stake that makes up a significant portion of his paper wealth. The filing also lists income from his Florida real estate – three golf resorts (in Jupiter, Doral and West Palm Beach) along with the luxury Mar-a-Lago club earned at least $217.7 million, according to the document. Another $5 million Trump received from royalties on a development project in Vietnam.
Although the president claims he transferred his business to a trust fund managed by his children, the document shows that the proceeds from these ventures continue to go directly to him.
The US president is required to make an annual disclosure of assets, which must include his income, assets, liabilities, gifts and other financial information. The document serves to ensure transparency and prevent conflicts of interest.
