Trump reports more than $1 billion in crypto income — plus millions in new foreign deals
WASHINGTON — President Trump reported a financial windfall in annual disclosure documents, including more than $1 billion in cryptocurrency income and tens of millions from new foreign real estate deals since re-entering the White House.
Trump reaped a staggering $635 million from sales of his free-floating $Trump meme coin — launched three days before he took office last January — via his company CIC Digital LLC, according to his 2025 disclosures released Tuesday.
The documents list more than $236 million in additional income from selling the WLFI cryptocurrency tokens through World Liberty Financial, the company founded by Trump, special envoy Steve Witkoff and their sons in 2024.
The files list $65.6 million from a sale of equity in World Liberty — a likely reference to the reported sale of part of the company last January to companies associated with United Arab Emirates national security adviser Sheikh Tahnoon bin Zayed al-Nahyan.
Trump reported a further $205 million in proceeds from stablecoin investments, including sales of holdings in Stablecoin Holdco, which is associated with World Liberty and its issuance of the USD1 stablecoin.
The billionaire licensing and real estate entrepreneur reported a wide range of additional income sources, including $4.7 million from Trump Watches royalties and even $208,486 in sales of a patriotic version of the Bible.
Trump, 80, is estimated by Forbes to be worth about $6 billion — up from $2.3 billion in 2024, indicating he dramatically increased his personal wealth while in the White House.
Trump’s 927-page disclosure included a sprawling list of his stock holdings, which the White House says financial firms manage.
It also lists major foreign revenue from licensing fees on hotel and golf course projects, some of which weren’t listed on, including $5.25 million from a forthcoming golf club in Doha, Qatar, as part of a deal signed last April, as well as $5 million from a Bucharest Trump Tower project in Romania announced last July.
Other major foreign revenue streams included nearly $8.5 million in licensing fee income from four recently announced Indian projects — in Delhi, Gurgaon, Hyderabad and Noida — and $5 million from a resort in Vietnam that local officials approved last year.
About $13 million in licensing and management fees are reported from Dubai, where Trump is building an 80-tower skyscraper unveiled last April after he returned to office.

Another $10 million flowed to Trump from Abu Dhabi licensing fees and $9.2 million from Saudi Arabia, where luxury projects in Riyadh and Jeddah are currently under construction.
Other well-known real estate holdings contributed to Trump’s income last year, including $77.5 million from his Mar-a-Lago club in Palm Beach, Fla., and $37.6 million from his golf club in Bedminster, NJ.
He earned another $31.3 million from his Turnberry, Scotland, hotel and golf course, $38.5 million from his hotel in Chicago, $31.6 million from his golf course in Jupiter, Fla., nearly $25 million from his course outside DC and $25 million from condo and hotel sales in Las Vegas.
The sprawling filing also lists major income from legal settlements against companies he accused of unfair treatment, including $22 million from Google and YouTube’s parent company, $24.5 million from Meta, $16 million from CBS, $16 million from ABC and $8 million from X.
Trump said he donated the settlement funds, with the exception of the X amount, to either his presidential library or the Trust for the National Mall.
‘Movie star’ Melania also strikes gold
First lady Melania Trump revealed significant earnings of her own totaling about $12 million.
In the spouses section of the federal document, Melania listed $10.7 million in income from her Amazon deal for her self-titled documentary movie.
She also reported $6 million in proceeds from NFTs and collectibles and an additional $521,000 in proceeds from her memoir.
The first lady also listed $1 million in a US bank account and $1 million in a bank in her native Slovenia.
Amazon reportedly paid Melania Trump’s production company $28 million as part of an overall $40 million licensing deal for the documentary about her life. The portion listed on the disclosure form is her personal income.
