The publication claims that Trump possesses $900 million in liquid assets, with nearly half of that amount derived from his cryptocurrency endeavors.
The article states that Trump earned over $390 million before taxes from the sale of native tokens associated with his crypto platform World Liberty Financial.
The current president is also said to have generated $315 million from his $TRUMP memecoin and $427 million from his collection of memecoins.
Additionally, Trump is estimated to hold up to $60 million in World Liberty Financial’s new stablecoin, USD1.

In total, Forbes asserts that Trump has earned $1.2 billion from his engagement in digital assets, with a post-tax estimate of $935 million.
Controversy Surrounds Trump-Related Crypto Activities
Reports of Trump’s alleged cryptocurrency earnings emerge just weeks after he hosted the top 220 investors of his $TRUMP memecoin at his golf club named after him, located just outside of Washington D.C., on May 22.
Tron founder Justin Sun was also present as the leading holder of $TRUMP, with a wallet identified as Sun holding $18 million worth of $TRUMP coins prior to the dinner.
Sun, who had previously invested $75 million in the Trump-associated crypto platform World Liberty Financial, has now contributed $93 million to Trump-related crypto initiatives.
Critics contend that the gala dinner and Trump’s cryptocurrency ventures may raise ethical concerns due to potential foreign influence and bribery issues.
Regardless of the ethical implications, one fact is evident: Trump’s connections to the blockchain industry are highly lucrative.
