Financial disclosures for 2024 filed by the president on Friday show that digital coins had already become one of his family’s most successful ventures.

On 13 June, the president filed a public financial disclosure with the Office of Government Ethics, which revealed that he earned approximately $600 million in revenue, with his several golf resorts themselves contributing $217.7 million.

Financial disclosures highlight President Trump's massive earnings through his cryptocurrency business, merchandise licensing, and private clubs, generating millions during his presidency.

The president’s stock and bond investments span 145 pages of the document, which also shows he received north of $700,000 in fees for speaking engagements.

The back-and-forth over a potential Trump cryptocurrency wallet on Tuesday exposed rifts among the family’s web of digital currency ventures.

In our polarized political system, even regulation of the multibillion-dollar crypto industry seems to be a tale of diametrically opposed approaches. As ever, however, the best way may lie in picking a careful path between the extremes angrily voicing their opinions.
