Trump Family Earns Billions from Crypto Ventures as Investors Face Losses
An investigation reveals the Trump family earned over $2 billion from multiple cryptocurrency ventures launched around Donald Trump's 2025 White House return. These projects, including meme coins and decentralized finance platforms, were heavily promoted by Trump family members and attracted millions of investors. While the family profited through token sales and licensing, many investors suffered significant losses as the value of these crypto assets sharply declined. The findings highlight a stark contrast between the Trump family's gains and investor outcomes.
