Thousands of investors lost money on Trump's cryptocurrency assets
According to financial disclosures filed with the U.S. Office of Government Ethics, 2025 was a record-breaking year financially for U.S. President Donald Trump.
The head of state reported over $1.4 billion in income from cryptocurrency projects developed by his family.
The bulk of this amount came from the “World Liberty Financial” cryptocurrency project, of which the U.S. president himself is a co-founder.
He earned hundreds of millions of dollars solely from the sale of tokens and the disposal of shares in this business.
While the U.S. president’s business empire has flourished, the situation for ordinary market participants has been disastrous.
Analytical data shows that the vast majority of investors who put money into the Trump family’s assets suffered significant financial losses.
In particular, following the launch of the “$WLFI” token in early 2025, about two-thirds of investors found themselves in the red.
A study by Nansen, which analyzed over 1.4 million crypto wallets, confirms the rapid depreciation of the assets that made the project’s organizers wealthy.
When “$WLFI” entered the secondary market in September 2025, the situation only worsened. An analysis of more than 26,000 wallets showed that 85% of buyers lost their funds as the token’s value plummeted by 81%.
White House officials have traditionally denied the existence of any conflicts of interest in the U.S. president’s activities.
Administration spokeswoman Anna Kelly stated: “Neither the president nor any member of his family has a conflict of interest, and all decisions made by the administration are in the best interests of the American people.”
