US President Donald Trump’s latest financial disclosure has revealed 17.2 million US dollars in media-related income linked to First Lady Melania Trump, more than 1 billion US dollars in cryptocurrency-related income during 2025, and a broad portfolio of technology, consumer and digital assets.

The Executive Branch Personnel Public Financial Disclosure Report, submitted to the United States Office of Government Ethics on June 29, 2026, details Trump’s business interests, investment holdings and sources of income. The filing was submitted after a 45-day extension and included late filing fees related to transactions not previously reported through periodic transaction disclosures.

A significant portion of the disclosed income came through MKT World LLC, a company used by Melania Trump to manage commercial activities including licensing agreements, appearances and merchandise. The entity reported 10.71 million US dollars from a film licensing agreement for Melania, 6.01 million US dollars from licensing agreements involving non-fungible tokens and other digital collectibles, and 521,161 US dollars from a publishing agreement for her book Melania.

The filing also revealed substantial cryptocurrency-related earnings connected to Trump’s digital ventures. CIC Digital LLC, an entity involved in managing Trump’s digital products and licensing arrangements, generated about 635 million US dollars in royalties, largely through an agreement with Celebration Coins. The entity also held various cryptocurrencies in digital wallets valued at at least 60 million US dollars.

Additional crypto-related income came through World Liberty Financial, a decentralised finance platform co-founded by members of the Trump family. Token sales from the platform generated more than 500 million US dollars, according to the disclosure. The filing tracked holdings across several digital wallets, including more than 150 million US dollars in assets on the Ethereum blockchain and more than 33 million US dollars in Bitcoin. It also disclosed 197 million US dollars generated from an equity sale of Stablecoin Holdco.

Trump also reported holding individual digital assets in cold storage wallets, with his Bitcoin and Ethereum holdings each valued at more than 50 million US dollars.

The report also showed Trump continues to receive retirement income from the Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists and related retirement funds from his earlier entertainment career.

The filing detailed Trump’s continuing business interests, including his role as President of Mar-a-Lago Club, L.L.C., a position he has held since January 2021. It also showed that he stepped down from management roles at CIC Digital LLC and CIC Ventures LLC on January 9, 2025, before taking office.

Trump’s ownership position in Trump Media & Technology Group was also disclosed. The filing said Trump transferred 114.75 million shares of the company’s common stock into The Donald J. Trump Revocable Trust in December 2024, with Trump remaining the sole beneficiary. The transfer was described as a restructuring and not a market sale or purchase.

The disclosure also showed Trump holds significant positions in major technology companies and investment funds. His reported holdings include stakes valued between 1 million US dollars and 5 million US dollars in Amazon, Apple, Microsoft, NVIDIA and CoreWeave.

Other disclosed investments included holdings linked to companies such as Netflix and Macy's, as well as broad market funds tracking US equities.
