Reuters: Trump Organization Earned More Than $800 Million from Crypto Assets

HeadlineOct 29, 2025

A Reuters investigation has found that President Trump’s family amassed more than $860 million from sales of crypto assets in the first half of 2025. Reuters detailed a Dubai meeting back in May where Eric Trump pitched investors to purchase $20 million of “governance tokens” in the Trump family’s crypto business, World Liberty Financial. A Reuters review of the digital wallets holding large amounts of World Liberty tokens found that the vast majority of them were held by overseas buyers. It comes as Donald Trump Jr. serves as an adviser to a drone company that was just awarded the Pentagon’s largest-ever contract to supply parts.
