Trump's Crypto and NFT Fortune Hits an Astounding $12.4M

Data shows that Former President Donald Trump has earned $4.8 million from NFT licensing fees and $7.6 million from crypto ventures, with a larger Ethereum wallet balance than previously thought.

What a great investment, especially considering he’s “not a fan of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies”? 👇

  • The disclosed amount in Trump's Ethereum wallet far surpasses the previously reported figure of $250,000 to $500,000.

  • Despite his involvement in crypto, Trump remains skeptical about cryptocurrencies, considering them “potentially fake and a disaster in the making.”

  • Alongside his blockchain financial activities, Trump faces an indictment in Georgia for alleged interference with the 2020 presidential election while contemplating a 2024 White House bid.
