🚨 Trump made $620M from crypto — 18x more than from real estate.
From meme coins to gold-backed stables and shady IPOs, his empire is shifting fast. But is this the future of crypto — or a political ticking time bomb?
💰 While Trump’s real estate brought in $34M last year, crypto ventures raked in $620M:
• $390M from WLFI token sales
• $100M expected from USD1 stablecoin
• Massive gains in TRUMP memecoins
🇺🇸 Family now holds 80% of all TRUMP memecoins — a highly illiquid, manipulated market. Most of the price action is based on political hype, not fundamentals.
That’s dangerous for both crypto and democracy.
🏛 Trump National Doral is going Web3:
• 1,500 luxury apartments
• Project valuation: $1.5B (up from $35M)
• Backed by crypto narrative and “American Bitcoin” brand
💸 Speaking of American Bitcoin:
The company is filing for a $3B IPO…
…with only $120M in real assets.
Classic bubble play or next political pump-and-dump?
⚠️ The SEC has stayed silent. And with Trump back in office, the crypto-political nexus is only getting messier. Regulators may be paralyzed by conflicts of interest.
🎭 The deeper issue: Crypto is becoming a tool of political branding. Not for tech, not for finance, but for building dynasties and laundering influence.
🚨 What’s next? If this trend spreads, expect:
• More meme coin “political IPOs”
• Regulatory chaos
• Risk of systemic shocks from politically backed assets
🔥 The Trump crypto machine is real — and it’s rewriting the playbook. Whether you’re bullish or skeptical, this shift deserves your attention.
