NEED TO KNOW

  • The U.S. Office of Government Ethics released a 927-page document breaking down President Donald Trump’s annual income
  • Much of Trump’s earnings over the past year, which top $2 billion, have come from cryptocurrency ventures
  • “President Trump only acts in the best interests of the American public – which is why they overwhelmingly re-elected him to this office, despite years of lies and false accusations against him and his businesses from the fake news media,” a White House spokesperson told PEOPLE

President Donald Trump has earned at least $2 billion in personal income, including over $1.4 billion in cryptocurrency earnings, since taking office in 2025, a new financial disclosure indicates.

On Tuesday, June 30, the U.S. Office of Government Ethics released a 927-page document outlining Trump's financial holdings, as is required by federal law. The document indicates that, among other sources of income, Trump was paid $635 million in cryptocurrency royalties by an entity called "Celebration Coins."

Trump also earned $236 million in crypto token sales and $290 million in "income from cryptocurrency wallets" connected to World Liberty Financial, a cryptocurrency venture founded by the Trump family, NBC News reported.

His total personal earnings in 2025 exceeded $2 billion, according to The Washington Post.

The disclosure also included another $86.5 million in settlements from five separate lawsuits against ABC, CBS, YouTube, Meta and the social media platform X.

Additional funds were attributed as revenue from his golf clubs and resorts, including $77 million in income from Mar-a-Lago.

The OGE also released a 17-page report of Vice President JD Vance's earnings in 2025.

In that document, Vance's income is listed as including his majority ownership stake in his firm Narya Capital, along with commercial and residential real estate holdings and book royalties. The disclosure also lists Vance as holding between $250,000 and $500,000 in Bitcoin, among other sources of income.

The financial disclosure comes six months after The New York Times' editorial board released an analysis of Trump's investments and sources of income, alleging that Trump had earned just over $1.4 billion in the year since he took office.

Following the disclosure, White House spokesperson Anna Kelly denied that Trump was engaged in financial "conflicts of interest" in a statement shared with PEOPLE.

“This is the same, tired narrative that Democrats have pushed against President Trump, his family, and his administration for a decade,” Kelly's statement read. “President Trump only acts in the best interests of the American public – which is why they overwhelmingly re-elected him to this office, despite years of lies and false accusations against him and his businesses from the fake news media. There are no conflicts of interest.”

The disclosure comes weeks after a Reuters investigation alleged that more than a million investors in Trump-related cryptocurrency ventures had lost a total of $2.3 billion after the $TRUMP memecoin they purchased "plummeted" in value.

The Reuters report alleges that Trump and his sons have gained $2.3 billion in profit amid those investors' losses.

Trump's full financial picture remains unclear, as government officials can report assets in ranges with the maximum being “over $50 million,” according to The Washington Post.
