hat’s Donald Trump really worth?

Everyone has an opinion, but Forbes has the answer: $7 billion, according to our most recent tally, updated in September. The president is an estimated $2.7 billion richer than when he won the 2024 election, having cashed in on crypto ventures and overseas deals. No one in American history has made so much money on politics. It’s not always easy to hang onto money that arrives suddenly—Trump’s net worth slipped $300 million in 2026.

The president is flush with cash, having collected hundreds of millions from cryptocurrency sales and an estimated $200 million more, after tax, from selling a chunk of one venture, reportedly to an Emirati royal. Those earnings added to a stockpile he had already been accumulating by selling his Washington, D.C. hotel and refinancing a San Francisco office complex.

Trump launched a memecoin days before his second term began, capitalizing on the buzz surrounding his inauguration. A portion of his coins now unlock on a daily basis.

The Trump family’s primary crypto project, World Liberty Financial, got off to a rocky start. Things accelerated after Trump won the election. Buyers have now snapped up more than $1 billion of tokens. The Trump family kept a pile for themselves.

World Liberty Financial also launched a stablecoin, USD1, which ties to the dollar and allows people to make crypto transactions with limited volatility. It’s not a new idea. “Everybody can mint a stablecoin,” says Matt Zhang, the founder of digital-asset firm Hivemind. “The difficult part is how you drive adoption.” A firm created by the UAE’s president offered some help to Trump’s venture, agreeing to use USD1 to make a $2 billion investment in a major crypto exchange.
