Former President Donald Trump earned exactly $57.36 million last year from a cryptocurrency platform linked to his family.
According to a report published by the U.S. Government Ethics Office on June 13, the financial report revealed that one of Trump’s largest sources of income was the cryptocurrency platform called World Liberty Financial, which his family members co-founded. This venture, which operates in decentralized finance (DeFi), generated $57,355,532 for Trump alone last year.
Founded in 2024, World Liberty Financial is a notable initiative where not only Trump but also his sons Donald Jr., Eric, and Barron Trump serve as co-founders. Another key figure in the platform is Zach Witkoff, son of Steve Witkoff, who serves as a presidential envoy for Ukraine-Russia peace talks and discussions on the Iran agreement.
Guitars, sneakers, and watches!
In addition to Trump's high earnings, the royalties he receives from products bearing his name and image are also noteworthy. According to the financial report, Trump generated millions of dollars in additional income from guitars, sneakers, watches, and books that bear his name.
This new development highlights the Trump family's influence in the cryptocurrency sector and their commercial successes with popular culture products. These items, which constitute a significant portion of Trump's earnings, clearly demonstrate the former president’s strategy to diversify his business ventures.
