President Donald Trump says he was not aware of the size or details of his family’s cryptocurrency holdings after disclosing very large investment gains. Multiple outlets report that Trump recently stated he earned at least about $1.4 billion in 2025 from investments linked to cryptocurrencies and “memecoins.” When asked how familiar he was with the family’s expanding crypto operations, Trump said he could have known but did not, and he pointed to a management structure in which his two eldest sons oversee his business interests.
Separate coverage also reports Trump defending the money he says he has made while in office, while again stating that he did not know about the extent of the crypto-related investments that produced more than $1 billion in gains. The accounts describe consistent themes: Trump attributes operational oversight to his sons, dismisses questions about his knowledge of the crypto holdings, and frames the disclosures as investment returns rather than expenditures. The reports do not present additional verification of the figures beyond Trump’s statements.
