Trump Family Nets $802 Million in Crypto Boom: WLFI, TRUMP Coin Key

* Trump-linked ventures amass $802 million from crypto in H1 2025, a historic shift in income. * Profits driven by WLFI token sales, TRUMP memecoin fees, and USD1 stablecoin interest. In the first half of 2025, the Trump family businesses generated $802 million from cryptocurrency-related projects, an income that surpassed their traditional earnings from real estate, licensing deals, and golf operations. On November 3, 2025, Reuters reported this unprecedented windfall, highlighting how crypto has become a cornerstone of the family's financial strategy. Sales of World Liberty Financial (WLFI) tokens contributed the most to the family's crypto earnings. The project's "Gold Paper" allocated 75% of post-expense proceeds from token sales to a Trump family entity, and Reuters estimated the resulting revenue at $463 million during this timeframe. These earnings were further boosted by high-profile transactions, including a $100 million token purchase by the UAE-based Aqua1 Foundation. Additionally, in August 2025, Nasdaq-listed Alt5 Sigma announced its plan to raise $1.5 billion to acquire WLFI tokens for its corporate treasury. As part of this deal, Eric Trump joined the company's board. The family marked another key milestone on January 17, 2025, with the launch of "Official Trump" (TRUMP), a branded memecoin. According to the November 3 Reuters report, the memecoin generated $86 million to $100 million in trading fees within its first two weeks alone. Reuters also estimated that Trump-linked entities earned roughly $336 million from these fees and associated sales, assuming a 50% share in the revenue division. The family also earned revenue from USD1, a stablecoin backed by cash and U.S. Treasury reserves that generate $80 million in interest annually. Trump Organization-affiliated entities own 38% of the stablecoin issuer, allowing them to receive a lucrative share of these returns. The stablecoin also proved essential for major financial transactions, which was demonstrated in May 2025 when the Abu Dhabi-backed MGX used $2 billion of USD1 to invest in Binance. This crypto boom coincided with a significant shift in U.S. cryptocurrency enforcement policy, as the government has relaxed its oversight measures since January 2025. For instance, the Justice Department dissolved its National Cryptocurrency Enforcement Team, and the SEC dropped several high-profile crypto-related cases. During this period, ethics concerns arose regarding potential conflicts of interest; however, the White House denied any wrongdoing. As of November 3 at 15:08 UTC, cryptocurrency prices showed mixed momentum. World Liberty Financial (WLFI) was trading at $0.122, with its 24-hour trading volume down 8.55%. Meanwhile, Official Trump (TRUMP) was valued at $7.647, up 1.14%, and World Liberty Financial USD (USD1) held steady at $0.999, marking a 0.024% increase.
