- **Donald Trump's #crypto Holdings**: Former President Donald Trump, previously critical of cryptocurrencies, is revealed to own more than $2.8 million worth of cryptocurrency held in an Ethereum wallet. This puts him in the 'whale' category, denoting substantial token holdings.
- **Licensing #Fees from NFTs**: The disclosed financial documents also indicate that Trump earned nearly $4.9 million from licensing fees related to a collection of non-fungible tokens (NFTs) launched by his campaign. These NFTs have contributed to his cryptocurrency-related earnings.
- **Contrasting Stance**: Trump's reported crypto #holdings contrast with his past skepticism towards cryptocurrencies, having called them a "scam" and favoring the US dollar. This shift in stance highlights a significant personal investment in the cryptocurrency market.
- **Comparison with Fellow Republicans**: Trump's stance is notably different from some fellow Republicans, including potential #2024 primary contender Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, who have shown support for cryptocurrencies and #blockchain technology.
