Donald Trump earns $1.4 billion from cryptocurrency in first year back in White House
According to a disclosed financial statement, President Donald Trump generated roughly $1.4 billion in cryptocurrency earnings during his first year after returning to the White House. The president’s total revenue was reported to have risen to at least $2.2 billion in 2025, compared with a minimum of $622 million in 2024 before his return. Trump also signed the Genius Act, a law regulating stablecoins, four months after a family‑linked company launched its own digital stablecoin. Critics argue the earnings create a conflict of interest, noting that members of the Trump family manage the related businesses. Legal analysts highlighted that previous U.S. presidents traditionally avoided direct business ties that could influence policy decisions.
