Reuters: Trump Organization Earned More Than $800 Million from Crypto Assets
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

A Reuters investigation has found that President Trump's family amassed
more than $860 million from sales of crypto assets in the first half of
2025. Reuters detailed a Dubai meeting back in May where Eric Trump
pitched investors to purchase $20 million of "governance tokens" in the
Trump family's crypto business, World Liberty Financial. A Reuters
review of the digital wallets holding large amounts of World Liberty
tokens found that the vast majority of them were held by overseas
buyers. It comes as Donald Trump Jr. serves as an adviser to a drone
company that was just awarded the Pentagon's largest-ever contract to
supply parts.
