You Won’t Believe How Much Crypto Trump Owns Now!

Despite his previous criticism of cryptocurrencies as a “scam,” Donald Trump’s financial portfolio now includes substantial investments in digital currencies, including between $1 million and $5 million in Ethereum alone.

This shift reflects a notable change in Trump’s stance toward cryptocurrencies, which he had vocally opposed during his presidency.

As President, Trump consistently expressed skepticism about the viability of cryptocurrencies, citing concerns over their role in illegal activities and their lack of inherent value.

“I am not a fan of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, which are not money, and whose value is highly volatile and based on thin air,” he said in a tweet in 2019.

He famously tweeted in 2019, dismissing Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies as not real money and criticizing their volatile nature. 

However, recent financial disclosures show that Trump has reversed his position, now holding investments in Ethereum.

In addition to his investment in Ethereum, Trump’s campaign has started accepting cryptocurrencies for donations on a fundraising page, bringing in over $3 million. This is part of a broader strategy to engage with younger, tech-savvy voters who are increasingly interested in digital currencies.

Trump has also ventured into other cryptocurrency-related endeavors. He has invested in a MAGA-themed memecoin called TRUMP, which saw a surge in value following his public endorsement.
