In his annual financial disclosure released Tuesday, Trump revealed about $594 million in income from World Liberty Financial, the crypto business he launched with his sons in fall 2024, and another $635 million that appears to be linked to the president’s meme coin.

“Trump made $1+ billion from his crypto ventures while in office,” Rep.
