The United States President Donald Trump reported earning more than $2 billion last year from a wide range of business interests, according to a financial disclosure released by the U.S. Office of Government Ethics.
The 927-page filing, published on Tuesday, details hundreds of millions of dollars in income from cryptocurrency ventures, real estate holdings, licensing deals and investments. The document is significantly longer than his previous disclosure, reflecting the expansion of his financial portfolio.
A substantial share of Trump’s income came from the cryptocurrency sector.
The disclosure shows he received more than $526.8 million from token sales linked to World Liberty Financial, a crypto company launched in 2024 with his sons, Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump, alongside the Witkoff family. He also reported earning over $65.6 million from selling equity in the venture.
Trump is listed as co-founder emeritus of the company, while his youngest son, Barron Trump, is described as its decentralized finance “visionary.”
The filing also states that Trump earned more than $635 million in royalties through a licensing agreement involving CIC Digital LLC and “celebration coins,” a revenue stream believed to be tied to his $TRUMP meme coin project launched before his second inauguration.
Combined, Trump’s cryptocurrency businesses generated more than $1.2 billion in reported income during the year.
The disclosure comes as the administration continues to support the digital asset industry and pushes lawmakers to approve legislation aimed at establishing clearer rules for the crypto market.
Democratic lawmakers criticised the revelations, arguing they raise ethical concerns over Trump’s financial ties to the industry while serving as president.
Real estate remained a major source of revenue
Trump’s real estate empire also continued to deliver strong returns.
His Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida generated more than $77.4 million, while the Trump National Doral golf resort brought in over $121.8 million.
His golf club near Washington, D.C., reported more than $24.8 million in revenue. Other golf properties in New York, New Jersey and Palm Beach produced roughly $65.6 million combined.
Outside the United States, Trump’s two golf resorts in Scotland generated more than $40.3 million.
Altogether, eight major Trump-owned properties produced nearly $330 million in revenue during the reporting period.
Investments span major global companies
The disclosure also lists investments in some of the world’s biggest corporations, including Alphabet, Amazon, Apple, AT&T, Chevron, ExxonMobil, Goldman Sachs, Meta, Nvidia and Tesla.
Trump additionally reported purchasing between $5 million and $25 million worth of shares in several technology companies, including Alphabet, Amazon, Meta, Nvidia and Tesla.
Responding to questions about his finances, Trump said professional investment firms manage his assets and insisted he does not personally oversee the transactions.
“I made a lot of money before I entered politics,” he told reporters, adding that large financial institutions handle his investments without his direct involvement.
President accepted sports event tickets worth over $122,000
The report also details gifts received during the year.
Of the 11 declared gifts, 10 were tickets to sporting events worth a combined $122,050.
Among them were 10 tickets to Super Bowl LIX, valued at $50,000, provided by New Orleans Saints owner Gayle Benson. Trump also received tickets to FIFA’s Club World Cup from FIFA president Gianni Infantino, UFC events from UFC CEO Dana White, NASCAR’s Daytona 500, the Ryder Cup and an MLB game between the New York Yankees and Detroit Tigers.
The only non-ticket gift listed was a $250,000 statue commemorating Trump’s response to the July 2024 assassination attempt. The statue was presented by Sticker Mule CEO Anthony Constantino.
