What to know:
- Ah, the illustrious Donald Trump! His crypto wallet and branding empire raked in a staggering $57.4 million last year, courtesy of World Liberty Financial. Who knew digital coins could be so lucrative? 💸
- His personal crypto stash? A modest estimate of $1 million to $5 million. Just a drop in the ocean of his wealth! 🌊
- And let’s not forget the $11 million in royalties from his branded merchandise. Because why not profit from everything, right? 😂
In a delightful twist of fate, Donald Trump’s crypto wallet and branding empire amassed tens of millions last year, with World Liberty Financial generously contributing $57.4 million to his coffers, as revealed in a freshly minted federal financial disclosure. Who needs a fairy godmother when you have a crypto fairy? 🧚♂️
The document, a veritable tome published by the Office of Government Ethics, reveals that Trump’s personal crypto holdings are estimated to be between $1 million and $5 million. He also declared gold bars as investments ranging from $250,000 to $500,000, along with a smorgasbord of money market funds, equity, Treasury bonds, and real estate. Quite the diversified portfolio, wouldn’t you say? 📈
But wait, there’s more! In addition to his crypto escapades, Trump appears to have collected over $11 million in royalties from his branded merchandise. Yes, you heard that right! This includes a coffee table book titled “Save America” that fetched a cool $3 million, $2.5 million from Trump sneakers and fragrances (because who doesn’t want to smell like a billionaire?), $2.8 million from watches, $1.3 million for “The Greenwood Bible” (a religious tome with his name on it), and a mere $100,000 from NFTs. The latter also brought in $1 million from licensing fees. Talk about a cash cow! 🐄
It seems Trump’s assets are safely tucked away in a trust managed by his children. Because what’s better than passing down wealth? Passing down the responsibility of managing it! 👶💼
While the U.S. President’s financial disclosure document spans a hefty 234 pages, Vice President JD Vance managed to file a mere 15-page disclosure, showcasing his more modest holdings and conveniently omitting any mention of crypto. A classic case of “less is more,” perhaps? 🤷♂️
As for the White House, they didn’t immediately respond to CoinDesk’s request for comments on Trump’s holdings. Maybe they were too busy counting their own coins? 🪙
