Trump Family Earns $187 Million from World Liberty Financial Crypto Venture.
World Liberty Financial: A Crypto Project
According to Vox - Загальний: The Trump family has generated at least $187 million from World Liberty Financial, a cryptocurrency project launched by Donald Trump and his partners ahead of the 2024 election. This venture has become a key component of the family's financial portfolio. Founded by Trump in collaboration with Steve Witkoff, the project gained significant traction about a year and a half after Trump returned to the presidency. Just days before Trump's inauguration, a member of the United Arab Emirates royal family acquired a 49% stake in the company, marking a pivotal moment for the initiative.
Financial Gains and Impact on the Trump Family
World Liberty Financial is now on the verge of obtaining a national banking license. As part of the project, a stablecoin called USD1 was created, pegged one-to-one with reserves. In the spring of 2025, an investment firm backed by a UAE national security advisor purchased $2 billion worth of these stablecoins, highlighting the growing interest in the venture.
The financial benefits from World Liberty Financial have significantly boosted the Trump family's wealth. Before the election, Eric Trump had a net worth of $40 million, which has since climbed to $400 million. Donald Trump Jr. also saw impressive growth, with his net worth rising from $50 million to $300 million. Additionally, Trump's youngest son, Barron, has a net worth of approximately $150 million. Thus, World Liberty Financial has not only become a critical tool in the Trump family's financial strategy but also underscores the increasing influence of cryptocurrencies on the modern economy.
The launch of World Liberty Financial reflects not just Trump's personal interests but also a broader trend of integrating cryptocurrencies into traditional financial systems.
The Trump family's capital growth amid this project may signal potential shifts in the financial sector, as well as possible consequences for the U.S. political landscape. With rising interest in cryptocurrencies, it is important to monitor the further development of this project and its impact on the country's economy and politics.
