- US President, Donald Trump, personally made US$57.7 million from token sales related to his family’s DeFi project, World Liberty Financial (WLFI), new financial filings show.
- Trump’s WLFI windfall was a relatively small proportion of his total disclosed earnings in 2024, with the largest share coming through his resorts and golf courses.
- Trump’s debts include penalties resulting from a civil case in which he was found to have sexually assaulted author E. Jean Carroll, and the criminal fraud case in which he was found guilty of 34 felonies.
A new financial filing has revealed US President, Donald Trump, made US$57.7 million (AUD$89m) dollars in 2024 from token sales related to his family’s DeFi project, World Liberty Financial (WLFI). The filing didn’t show how much Trump has personally profited from his $TRUMP memecoin as it only covered the calendar year 2024.
The compulsory filing was released on Friday by the Office of Government Ethics and detailed Donald Trump’s enormous list of assets and income sources, including hundreds of millions of dollars from real estate, golf courses, resorts and crypto projects.
Fight Fight Fight LLC, which owns and operates the $TRUMP memecoin wasn’t included in the filing as it launched in 2025, but a report from the Financial Times in March estimated that it’d made at least US$350 million (AUD$540m) from the launch of the memecoin. If this were included in Trump’s disclosures it likely would’ve made crypto his single-largest source of income.

Crypto a Relatively Small Part of Trump Disclosures…For Now
Despite netting him over US$50 million in personal profit, the windfall Trump received from WLFI token sales was a relatively small proportion of his total disclosed earnings in 2024.
The largest share of Trump’s income came through his resorts and golf courses. Trump Endeavour 12 LLC, a Miami-based company which owns and operates golf clubs and a resort brought in US$110 million (AUD$169m), while his Florida resort, Mar-a-Lago, generated US$50 million (AUD$77m) in revenue.
Twenty-two assets were listed as valued at over US$50 million dollars including Mar-a-Lago, his Scottish golf resort Turnberry, World Liberty Financial and Trump Media and Technology Group, which owns his Truth Social Twitter clone.
CIC Digital LLC, the Trump-linked entity that licenses Donald Trump’s likeness for use in NFTs made US$1.1 million (AUD$1.6m) in 2024 and also holds over US$1 million (AUD$1.5m) in Ether.

Trump’s debts listed in the filing included penalties flowing from the recent legal rulings against him. These rulings include the civil case in which he was found to have sexually assaulted author E. Jean Carroll and the criminal fraud case in which he was found guilty of 34 felonies. These debts are currently stayed as Trump appeals the rulings.
Vice President JD Vance’s financial filings were also released at the same time as Trump’s, revealing that Vance and his wife have assets valued at at least US$6.5 million (AUD$10m).
