💰 Trump Made More from Crypto Than from All His Real Estate!
The family of U.S. President Donald Trump has unexpectedly become one of the biggest beneficiaries of the cryptocurrency market. Their new creation, the World Liberty Financial (WLFI) token, brought them more in one day than decades of investments in iconic skyscrapers and golf clubs.
According to The Wall Street Journal, the Trump family’s combined wealth grew by more than $5 billion after WLFI’s launch on major crypto exchanges. The reason – a massive holding of 22.5 billion WLFI, representing nearly a quarter of the total supply.
From Launch to Billions
- In the first hours of trading, tokens worth around $1 billion were sold.
- The starting price was $0.30, but by the end of the day WLFI dropped to $0.20.
- Despite the correction, the Trump family’s stake is valued at $5-6 billion, making WLFI the largest crypto asset in their portfolio.
Some tokens remain locked, but the market has, for the first time, given a real valuation to the Trumps’ crypto holdings — now estimated by some to surpass even their traditional real estate empire.
Business, Politics, and Crypto
The World Liberty Financial launch was actively promoted by Donald Trump himself, who in recent years has made a sharp pivot toward supporting the crypto industry. The project attracted over $750 million in investments, of which the family business expects to keep up to $500 million.
Interestingly, early investors could only redeem about one-fifth of their tokens, while a significant portion remained “frozen.” This created a situation in which insiders — including the Trump family — reaped the greatest rewards from the trading debut.
Beyond WLFI, the Trumps also control 80% of the $Trump memecoin and a substantial stake in Trump Media, the company behind Truth Social. Their total crypto holdings could reach tens of billions of dollars.
Skeptics and Risks
The success, however, did not come without controversy. Critics argue that this rapid enrichment stems less from the project’s innovation and more from political influence and investor expectations. Moreover, large token sales could crash the market — WLFI’s liquidity is still far from Bitcoin or Ethereum levels.
Some analysts even noted that WLFI’s launch volatility caused localized liquidations in the BTC market — with the token briefly “flipping” the leading cryptocurrency in activity.
📈 One way or another, the Trump family has, in a single day, become one of the world’s richest crypto players — and their fortune now depends less on skyscrapers and golf courses, and more on the whims of digital assets.
