Trump Media & Technology Group, the parent company of Truth Social, also remains a significant asset.

While precise valuations are uncertain, revenue from branded merchandise and licensing agreements continues to be generated.

This includes $2.8 million from Trump Watches, $2.5 million from Trump-branded sneakers and fragrances, and over $1 million from his NFT trading cards.

In the physical realm, Trump’s Florida golf resorts generated $217.7 million, led by the Trump National Doral, which earned over $110 million.

Additional revenue was derived from real estate ventures in India, Dubai, and Vietnam, with licensing and development fees exceeding $30 million.

The filing also reported $12 million in passive income from investments in Blue Owl Capital and U.S. bond funds.

Despite previously asserting that he had distanced himself from daily management, the disclosure confirms that Trump remains closely connected to the financial outcomes of his extensive business network, including cryptocurrency.

SEC Approves Trump Media’s $2.3B Bitcoin-Linked Registration

As reported, the SEC has approved the registration statement for Trump Media and Technology Group’s (TMTG) associated with a $2.3 billion Bitcoin treasury initiative.

The June 13 filing encompasses 85 million shares, including 29 million tied to convertible notes.

While the approval provides TMTG with the flexibility to raise capital, the company states it has no immediate intentions to issue new securities.

The SEC’s approval follows shortly after TMTG confirmed a $2.5 billion capital raise to acquire Bitcoin, after earlier denials.

In that May 27 announcement, Nunes described Bitcoin as “an apex instrument of financial freedom,” asserting that it would become a fundamental part of the company’s asset base.
