U.S. President Donald Trump has always claimed billionaire status. But over the years, there’s been plenty of debate, from journalists, financial experts, and even the New York attorney general, about how much he’s really worth.

While exact numbers are hard to pin down, recent financial disclosures, business data, and crypto records offer a clearer view of Trump’s wealth in 2025, especially now that digital assets play a major role in his portfolio.

Here’s a breakdown of what’s known about Trump’s assets, income, and debt.

Cryptocurrencies: As much as $7.1 billion

Trump has rapidly become a major player in the world of cryptocurrency. His digital wealth mostly comes from a meme-inspired crypto token called $TRUMP, launched just before his second inauguration in January 2025.

At the current price of about $8.67 (as of July 1), Trump and his partners' holdings in $TRUMP coins are worth around $6.9 billion. However, this is not liquid money; the coins can’t be freely traded, and any large sale could drive down the price. Also, it’s unclear how much of the total belongs directly to Trump.

Every time $TRUMP is traded, Trump earns transaction fees. So far, these have added up to at least $320 million, according to crypto research firm Chainalysis — though this money is shared with his business partners.

World Liberty Financial Tokens

Trump also co-founded World Liberty Financial, a crypto company that has made big money through token sales. The company has brought in at least $675 million from selling digital coins called WLFI. After hitting a $30 million sales threshold, a Trump-owned business became eligible for 75% of the profits (after costs). That means Trump may have already earned over $300 million from this venture.

He also owns 15 billion WLFI tokens himself. These aren't currently tradeable, so they don’t yet have a clear market value. But if priced at 1.5 cents per token, the rate offered to early investors, they’d be worth around $236 million.

At a June crypto event, one of World Liberty’s founders, Zak Folkman, hinted that big updates are coming soon: “Everybody is going to be very, very happy.”

Stocks, bonds, and cash: At least $2.2 billion

The second-biggest chunk of Trump’s fortune comes from his shares in Trump Media & Technology Group, the company behind his social media platform Truth Social. He owns 115 million shares, currently worth about $2 billion.

However, like his crypto holdings, this value only exists on paper unless he sells the shares. His stake was once worth $6 billion, but the stock has dropped significantly since January.

Trump also owns a large portfolio of investments in stocks, bonds, and cash, valued at a minimum of $236 million, according to his 2024 disclosure. He reported earning $13 million in dividends and interest last year.

The exact total is hard to estimate because many assets are listed in broad ranges. For example, one account showed more than $50 million, with no upper limit provided.

Real estate and businesses: At least $1.3 billion

Before entering crypto, Trump built most of his wealth through real estate, from hotels and golf resorts to office towers. These assets remain a key part of his portfolio.

In his latest disclosure, Trump listed 19 real estate properties valued at over $50 million each, bringing the minimum value of his real estate and business holdings to $1.3 billion. This does not include Trump Media or World Liberty Financial.

Two of his most profitable properties in 2024 were in Florida:

  • Trump National Doral golf club near Miami: $110 million in revenue

  • Mar-a-Lago estate and club in Palm Beach: $50 million in revenue

The New York attorney general, however, accused Trump of inflating his real estate values to secure better loans, a case that led to a major judgment against him.

Royalties: At least $11 million in 2024

Trump continues to earn millions in royalties from branded consumer products like watches, sneakers, a Bible, and even a coffee-table book. Last year, he earned over $11 million from these deals, according to official disclosures.

Debt: Over $640 million plus interest

Real estate loans

Like many real estate investors, Trump owes money to several properties. His company says it recently cleared a $160 million loan on 40 Wall Street in New York, but he still has more than $100 million in real estate debt overall.

Legal judgments

Trump’s biggest financial burden is from recent lawsuit judgments, totaling $540 million — and that’s before adding interest.

One major case involved writer E. Jean Carroll, who accused Trump of sexual assault and defamation. In two separate trials, he was ordered to pay:

  • $83.3 million for defaming her

  • $5 million for sexual abuse and defamation

Trump has appealed the judgments and secured appellate bonds, which temporarily pause the payments. But to get those bonds, he had to pledge some of his assets. If he loses the appeal, he will owe the full amount plus interest.

Trump’s financial empire is now deeply tied to digital assets, with cryptocurrency making up the majority of his reported wealth. Still, many of these assets are non-liquid, meaning they can’t easily be turned into cash.

Despite the uncertainties, what’s clear is that Trump’s net worth has grown significantly during his second term, thanks in large part to his high-risk, high-reward crypto ventures.
