Trump Builds a Crypto Empire — But What’s the Play
The Trump family is rapidly expanding its influence in crypto — from meme coins like $TRUMP, to a $2B Bitcoin treasury, crypto mining ventures, and a new "Strategic Bitcoin Reserve" backed by executive orders. Here’s a snapshot:
⚡ $TRUMP meme coin launched Jan 2025, ballooned to ~$27 B valuation Trump affiliates control ~80% of supply
🏦 $2B Bitcoin purchase by Trump Media, shifting capital from real estate to BTC
🛢️ Strategic Bitcoin Reserve announced, part of Trump’s push to make the U.S. the crypto capital of the planet
📄 GENIUS Act signed — stable coin-friendly law that critics call a conflict of interest, enabling Trump’s crypto gains
💰 $57 M+ earnings from World Liberty Financial meme coins and stablecoins
🚨 Ethics concerns: critics warn of a "crypto empire built from thin air" and potential corruption linking the presidency to crypto profits
