Bloomberg: Trump Family Earned $1.4 Billion in a Year Thanks to Cryptocurrencies

  • Over the past year, the Trump family earned about $1.4 billion from crypto projects.
  • Total income stands at about $6.8 billion, Bloomberg said.

The family of U.S. President Donald Trump earned about $1.4 billion from cryptocurrencies over the past year. Total net worth is estimated at $6.8 billion, Bloomberg reports.

According to the journalists, crypto projects have joined the family’s newer business lines, such as weapons manufacturing, rare earth metals, artificial intelligence, and prediction platforms. However, cryptocurrencies became the main growth driver, the report said.

Bloomberg noted that the Trump family earns from tokens, as well as from public and private companies. The journalists highlighted three key projects:

  • World Liberty Financial — a crypto platform founded by Trump together with his sons. Token sales brought in about $390 million. In August, the family received another more than $500 million thanks to a deal with Alt5 Sigma
  • the OFFICIAL TRUMP memecoin — launched ahead of the inauguration, with the family’s stake and related proceeds estimated at about $280 million
  • American Bitcoin — a mining business created in partnership with Hut 8. Eric Trump holds a stake valued at $114 million, despite the stock falling 82% from its peak.

The statement said that despite rising crypto profits, the overall figure was offset by a drop in the value of the Trump Media & Technology Group social network. Over the past 12 months, its shares have fallen 66%, despite attempts to diversify the business into finance, cryptocurrencies, and, more recently — into fusion energy, the journalists noted.

In addition, the family holds its own tokens worth about $3.8 billion at prices at the time of the announcement, but they are not included in Bloomberg’s calculations because they are currently locked. The USD1 stablecoin also generates income — Bloomberg estimates the business could be worth more than $300 million.

Among other income sources besides cryptocurrencies, the journalists cited real estate and the 1789 Capital venture fund, which by early 2026 had raised about $2 billion in investment and deployed more than $800 million into various startups.

As a reminder, January 20, 2026 marks one year since Donald Trump became U.S. president for a second time. The Incrypted editorial team summed up the key events of the past 12 months of his time in office:

China’s Ban on Nvidia Chips for State Firms Sends Stock Tumbling

Cyberspace Administration of China (CAC) has instructed big companies to stop purchasing and cancel existing orders for Nvidia’s RTX Pro 6000D chip The ban is part of China’s ongoing effort to reduce dependency on US-made AI hardware, especially after restrictive US export rules After the news, Nvidia shares dropped in premarket trading by about 1.5% Cyberspace Administration of China (CAC) has instructed big companies like Alibaba and ByteDance to stop purchasing and cancel existing orders for Nvidia’s RTX Pro 6000D chip. The ban is part of China’s ongoing effort to reduce dependency on US-made AI hardware, especially after restrictive US export rules. The RTX Pro 6000D was tailored for China to comply with some export rules, but now the regulator says even that chip is off-limits. After the news, Nvidia shares dropped in premarket trading (around 1.5%), reflecting investors’ concerns about reduced demand in one of the biggest markets. This isn’t the first time China has done something like this. For instance, in August, the country urged firms not to use Nvidia’s H20 chip due to potential security issues and the need to comply with international export control regulations. Meanwhile, Alibaba and Baidu have begun using domestically produced AI chips more heavily, which shows that China is seriously investing in building its own chip-making capacity. Additionally, a few days ago, Chinese regulators opened an antitrust review into Nvidia’s Mellanox acquisition, suggesting the company may have broken some of the promises it made to get the 2020 deal passed. From AI to blockchain and the possible effects of China’s ban The banning of Nvidia chips represents a rather notable escalation in the technological rivalry between the United States and China. Beyond tariffs or export bans, China is now proactively telling its firms to avoid even “compliant” US chips and instead shift…
