A Reuters analysis of US President Donald Trump's holdings over the past two years shows that his portfolios of stocks and bonds increased at least fourfold as crypto money flooded in.
Trump’s financial disclosures show that even as he and his two eldest sons were encouraging investors to plow their money into crypto projects — which resulted in steep losses for retail buyers — his money managers were investing a significant portion of the proceeds into safer harbors.
Trump received more than $1.4 billion last year from his family’s crypto projects. He held between $703 million and $2.6 billion in such traditional financial instruments at the end of 2025, compared with between $225 million and $608 million at the end of 2024.
