Trump’s Crypto Empire: $1.2 billion in Personal Profit – 20% of His Government Advisors Hold Cryptocurrencies [Infographic]

Trump’s Crypto Empire: $1.2 billion in Personal Profit – 20% of His Government Advisors Hold Cryptocurrencies [Infographic]

Trump’s penchant for digital assets is no secret. However, the scale of his investments is considerable, as a new infographic from Cryptonews shows. Donald Trump’s personal crypto wealth has now already exceeded the $1.2 billion mark. According to the Democratic Caucus on the U.S. Congressional Financial Services Committee, Trump has systematically worked in recent months to weaken relevant regulatory authorities and stifle ongoing proceedings to build up crypto wealth secretly. According to a recent analysis, this wealth now even exceeds the total value of his real estate portfolio. As the infographic shows, Trump’s crypto wealth is spread across several asset classes and projects with a direct or indirect connection to his name. At the top is World Liberty Financial, a crypto company with close family ties, from which, according to research, Donald Trump is said to have siphoned around $390 million. This is followed by a $315 million meme coin, for which Trump licensed his name and profited from the price increase, as well as obfuscated wallets and investments valued at $430 million. He generated further income, among other things, from the sale of his own Trump NFTs. Trump’s attributed crypto wealth according to Forbes’ research. Source: Forbes . A central element of Trump’s crypto strategy is the aggressive positioning of his media company, Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG), as an institutional Bitcoin investor. As the infographic shows, the company now holds approximately $2 billion in Bitcoin and Bitcoin-related securities—including physical holdings, options, and exchange-traded products. Notably, the remaining liquid assets amount to only around $1 billion, meaning that roughly two-thirds of the total liquidity reserve is tied up in crypto assets.

Source: Trump Media & Technology Group ; With this strategy, Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG) is now one of the largest Bitcoin holders in the world. As the infographic shows, the company already ranks sixth among all publicly traded companies with Bitcoin holdings – ahead of well-known players like Tesla, Coinbase, and Galaxy Digital. Only companies like MicroStrategy, Marathon Digital, and Block (formerly Square) currently hold larger BTC reserves. This position among the top holders shows the importance Bitcoin has become for TMTG’s strategic financial management – and also highlights how closely intertwined Trump’s media empire is with the cryptocurrency industry.

Source: BitcoinTreasuries As the infographic shows, Trump Media & Technology Group’s (TMTG) Bitcoin holdings are not only large—they also represent a significant portion of the company’s overall valuation. Approximately 40% of TMTG’s current market capitalization is accounted for by BTC holdings, underscoring the company’s dependence on the Bitcoin price.

As the infographic shows, the stock’s performance is clearly lagging behind the crypto asset – both in the short term and over several months. Stock performance vs. Bitcoin performance. Source: Finanzen.net; Donald Trump’s family circle is also deeply involved in the crypto strategy. His sons, Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump, are among the co-founders of American Bitcoin. This company has already raised $220 million in institutional capital to finance Bitcoin reserves and mining infrastructure. At the same time, all three Trump sons are co-founders of World Liberty Financial, arguably the most central crypto vehicle in the Trump network; the US President operates there as “co-founder emeritus.” Eric Trump also recently commented publicly on Ethereum. On February 4, he described ETH as a buying opportunity and recently hinted that he sees the cryptocurrency’s fair value at $8,000. The neutrality of this Ethereum forecast can at least be questioned with regard to investments from the surrounding area.

This raises questions about the independence of political decision-making processes – especially at a time when crypto regulation and government Bitcoin initiatives are gaining increasing importance. The high proportion of investors in Trump’s immediate circle underscores the close personal and financial ties between politics and digital assets.

SEC Opens Door to In-Kind Redemption Option for Crypto ETFs

SEC Opens Door to In-Kind Redemption Option for Crypto ETFs

The US Securities and Exchange Commission ( SEC ) has cleared the way for crypto ETFs to use in-kind creations and redemptions, a move industry participants say could make the fast-growing market more efficient and cost-effective. The regulator voted on July 29 to approve orders allowing authorized participants to create and redeem shares of Bitcoin and Ether exchange-traded products (ETPs) in kind, meaning they can receive the underlying cryptocurrency directly rather than cash. Until now, spot Bitcoin and Ether ETPs approved in 2024 were restricted to cash-only transactions. Chairman Paul S. Atkins said following the vote: “A key priority of my chairmanship is developing a fit-for-purpose regulatory framework for crypto asset markets. Investors will benefit from these approvals, as they will make these products less costly and more efficient.” I'm pleased to share the SEC approved in-kind creations and redemptions for crypto ETPs. The approvals continue to build a rational regulatory framework for crypto, leading to a deeper and more dynamic market, which will benefit all American investors. https://t.co/UbQ9pXlBpD pic.twitter.com/DX8ub16Ey3 — Paul Atkins (@SECPaulSAtkins) July 29, 2025 New Redemption Option to Boost Flexibility and Cut Costs The in-kind redemption model is common for traditional stock and commodity ETFs. In this system, authorized participants exchange shares for the underlying securities rather than cash. Now, applying the same mechanism to crypto ETPs, industry observers say, reduces friction. Additionally, it gives issuers and market makers greater flexibility when managing the funds. Move Lets Investors Defer Capital Gains Until Crypto Sale By allowing in-kind transfers, the SEC also gives institutional investors better tax efficiency. In a cash redemption, ETP issuers must sell the underlying cryptocurrency to raise funds, often triggering capital gains that are then passed on to shareholders. In-kind redemptions allow investors to receive the crypto directly and defer taxes until they decide to sell the assets. The Commission’s vote also advanced other initiatives to standardize the treatment of crypto-based products. It approved exchange applications to list and trade a mixed spot Bitcoin and Ether ETP, as well as options and Flexible Exchange (FLEX) options on certain spot Bitcoin products. Position limits for options on Bitcoin ETPs were increased to align with generic limits of up to 250,000 contracts. ETP Issuers Poised to Benefit as SEC Eases Operational Constraints Two scheduling orders were also issued to seek public comment on whether national securities exchanges should be allowed to list and trade two large-cap crypto ETPs. These products had been approved earlier by the Division of Trading and Markets under delegated authority. The decision marks a departure from the more restrictive framework adopted for crypto ETFs last year. In addition, analysts said the shift brings the sector closer to how mainstream ETFs operate. As a result, it could lead to tighter spreads and better liquidity. Moreover, it may attract new institutional investors who had been cautious about the operational constraints of cash-only redemptions. Crypto ETF assets have grown rapidly since spot Bitcoin ETFs debuted in early 2024, amassing tens of billions in assets under management. The SEC’s latest orders could accelerate that growth as issuers adapt to the new framework.

From ‘Static Holding’ to ‘Dynamic Income Growth’, Topnotch Crypto Ignites XRP’s Profit Engine

From ‘Static Holding’ to ‘Dynamic Income Growth’, Topnotch Crypto Ignites XRP’s Profit Engine

Topnotch Crypto has officially unveiled a new XRP -based cloud mining contract, marking a milestone in the evolution of digital currency utility. Designed to empower XRP holders, the platform now allows users to mine leading cryptocurrencies using XRP as both the funding and payout method. With this development, Topnotch Crypto is leading the way in offering innovative, low-barrier mining opportunities in the decentralized finance ecosystem. This launch comes at a time when passive income strategies in crypto are gaining widespread popularity, especially as users look for alternatives to hardware-intensive mining operations. Topnotch Crypto’s solution stands out by merging XRP’s transaction efficiency with a seamless contract-driven mining model – removing the barriers that once made mining difficult for the average investor. Turning Idle XRP into Daily Crypto Rewards The newly introduced XRP cloud mining contracts allow users to convert their idle XRP into productive digital assets by earning daily profits from cloud mining operations. With a starting point as low as $15, participants can begin generating passive income without purchasing or maintaining mining hardware. These fixed-term contracts provide users with full transparency on expected returns. Payouts are processed every 24 hours and can be withdrawn manually, offering a predictable income stream that is especially attractive in today’s volatile crypto market. Revolutionizing Cloud Mining with XRP Integration Traditionally, mining requires significant investment in physical infrastructure – ASICs, GPUs, cooling systems, and electricity. Now, through XRP-powered cloud mining, Topnotch Crypto offers a solution that is fast, secure, and free from technical complexity. Unlike Bitcoin or Ethereum , XRP cannot be mined through Proof-of-Work ( PoW ). Instead, Topnotch Crypto enables users to rent mining power for coins like BTC and LTC , funding those contracts entirely in XRP. The simplicity of this setup, paired with XRP’s near-zero transaction fees, creates a high-efficiency ecosystem that puts mining within reach of everyone. Contracts are available across multiple durations, from short-term trials to long-term income strategies. Whether a user is looking to dip a toe into mining or scale with reinvested profits, the flexibility is built in. How It Works: Easy Steps to Get Started Register an Account Signing up is quick and secure, requiring just an email address. Claim Your Sign-Up Bonus New users can receive a $15 bonus and start their first contract for free. Deposit XRP Users fund their account using XRP directly, without needing to convert from other tokens. Select a Mining Contract Choose from a wide range of options based on duration, expected returns, and minimum deposit. Activate and Earn Once a contract is purchased, mining begins automatically. Payouts are credited every 24 hours. Withdraw or Reinvest Users can manually withdraw earnings once they reach the minimum threshold or reinvest to grow their daily yield. This intuitive model is designed for all experience levels – from crypto veterans to first-time investors looking for a reliable entry point into digital asset accumulation. Why XRP? Speed, Stability, and Scalability XRP is one of the most liquid cryptocurrencies globally, known for its lightning-fast settlement and minimal fees. With its strong developer ecosystem and widespread adoption in payment systems, XRP is now carving a place in decentralized finance through utility-driven projects like Topnotch Crypto’s cloud mining platform. Using XRP as the primary mode of payment and reward provides users with enhanced flexibility, reduced conversion losses, and instant access to their earnings. This unique integration positions XRP as more than a payment token. It is now a viable tool for generating digital wealth. Transparency, Flexibility, and Daily Returns Topnotch Crypto provides users with a transparent dashboard where they can track earnings in real-time. Contract terms are clearly outlined, and returns are delivered based on real mining output – not speculative figures. With the freedom to withdraw or reinvest profits at any time, Topnotch Crypto makes it easier than ever to grow a crypto portfolio passively, securely, and flexibly. Setting a New Standard in Passive Crypto Income With this launch, Topnotch Crypto is setting a new standard for cloud mining services that combine innovation with simplicity. The XRP cloud mining contract is more than just a financial product. It’s a gateway for users to participate in the digital economy on their terms. As the crypto space continues to mature, solutions like these are helping everyday users unlock the potential of their digital assets, without being burdened by technical or financial hurdles.
