Former U.S. President Donald Trump has reported over $600 million in income from ventures ranging from cryptocurrency to golf resorts and luxury licensing, according to a newly released financial disclosure covering 2024. The filing offers a rare and detailed look into the wide-reaching business interests of Trump and his family with crypto emerging as a major income source alongside real estate and brand endorsements.
The disclosure, signed on June 13, 2025, shows Trump’s financial landscape rapidly evolving, especially with the family’s growing presence in the crypto world.
Crypto Ventures Bring in Big Money
One of the most striking elements of the report is Trump’s expanding footprint in cryptocurrency. The president’s crypto earnings include:
$320 million from a meme coin known as $TRUMP, launched earlier in the year.
$57.35 million from token sales at World Liberty Financial, a decentralised finance (DeFi) firm with close Trump family involvement.

A reported 15.75 billion governance tokens held in the same venture.
More than $400 million reportedly earned through dealings with World Liberty Financial, which also involves a Bitcoin mining operation and crypto ETFs (Exchange Traded Funds).
While exact breakdowns remain unclear, these figures highlight how Trump’s crypto deals are now a core part of his business empire, raising eyebrows among critics concerned about conflicts of interest, especially given his political position.
Golf Courses and Resorts Still Deliver
Despite his crypto rise, real estate and golf remain key revenue sources. Trump’s three major golf resorts in Florida Jupiter, Doral, and West Palm Beach, alongside the iconic Mar-a-Lago private club, brought in at least $217.7 million.
The single top-earning property was Trump National Doral, which generated $110.4 million. While the disclosure lists income as revenue rather than net profit, the figures still reflect the strength of Trump’s traditional hospitality businesses, even amid his digital expansion.
From Bibles to Fragrances
The Trump brand continues to thrive globally through a wide variety of licensing and royalty deals. The financial disclosure lists impressive income from:
$5 million in license fees from a Vietnam real estate development
$10 million from a project in India
Nearly $16 million in licensing from a Dubai-based development
$2.8 million from the Trump Watches line
$2.5 million from Trump-branded sneakers and fragrances
$1.3 million in royalties from the Greenwood Bible, which is branded as “officially endorsed” by Trump and country singer Lee Greenwood.
The diversity of his licensing deals shows how the Trump name still holds global commercial value, from real estate and fashion to religious publications.
NFTs and Digital Assets
In line with his crypto interests, Trump has also made notable gains from non-fungible tokens (NFTs). These digital assets, featuring Trump-themed art and collectibles, brought in:
$1.16 million from Trump’s own NFT collection
$216,700 from First Lady Melania Trump’s separate NFT ventures
NFTs have become an increasingly mainstream part of digital investing, and Trump’s involvement signals his desire to position the family as a serious player in Web3 culture.
Investments and Passive Income
Beyond active business and branding, Trump’s filing revealed at least $12 million in passive income from investments – mostly through dividends and interest. Key investments include:
Blue Owl Capital Corp, a major alternative investment firm
Government bond funds managed by Charles Schwab and Invesco
Trump reported total assets of at least $1.6 billion, though many values were given in ranges, suggesting actual totals could be significantly higher. This further cements his status as one of the wealthiest political figures globally.
Questions Over Conflict of Interest
Although Trump has claimed to place his businesses into a trust managed by his children, the income disclosures show financial benefits still flow directly to him. This has led to renewed concerns about conflicts of interest, particularly in sectors like crypto that are highly sensitive to U.S. policy shifts.
His involvement in DeFi, Bitcoin mining, and ETFs while also having political power has sparked criticism from ethics watchdogs and transparency advocates. So far, the White House has not commented on the disclosure.
