अर्थ सरोकार

Kathmandu. US President Donald Trump has revealed that he will make about $1 billion in revenue from his family’s cryptocurrency transactions in 2025. A 927-page financial disclosure made public Tuesday by the US State Ethics Office shows that Trump has amassed a large amount of income, particularly from transactions related to World Liberty Financial and the Trump cryptocurrency.

According to Forbes, his personal wealth increased from $2.3 billion to $6.5 billion between 2024 and 2026.

According to the disclosures, Trump received about $55 million from his relationship with start-up company World Liberty Financial, and an additional $635 million in royalties from a license deal related to Trump cryptocurrency that was made public before his inauguration in January 2025.

The company was co-founded in September 2024 by Trump’s sons and the son of Special Middle East envoy Steve Wittoff.

World Liberty Financial raised $550 million from the sale of its own WLFI tokens.

The token’s price, which has been traded since September 2025, has dropped from 46 cents to about 6 cents now. Trump and his three sons have received an additional $22.5 billion in WLFI tokens through DT Marks DeFi. Its current estimated value is $1.3 billion. The company also launched a US dollar stablecoin in April 2025.

Trump has been accused of a conflict of interest in his efforts to deregulate the sector he invests in during his presidency.

The White House has denied the allegations, saying neither the president nor his family were involved in any conflict of interest. White House Deputy Press Secretary Anna Kelly said that Trump has made America the “crypto capital” of the world and that all of his administration’s decisions are in the best interest of the American people.

According to the 1978 law, the President and Vice-President are required to disclose their assets and income.

First Lady Melania Trump has earned more than $10 million from documentaries made for Amazon and more than half a million dollars from her book ‘Melania’. Trump also made significant income from shares of crypto companies such as Coinbase, various Trump brand merchandise and the sale of Bibles he co-operated with singer Lee Greenwood.

Trump’

s assets are currently held in a trust run by his son, Donald Trump Jr. However, under the trust’s arrangements, the dissolution is possible at any time, so Trump can regain direct control of the assets when his second term ends in 2029.

In the same financial disclosure, Vice President J. D. Vance has also revealed that he has received between $ 1 million and $ 5 million in royalties from his 2016 memoir ‘Hillbilly Elegy’.
