The Presidential Crypto Portfolio Expands—Trump’s Crypto Holdings Rise, Now Worth $13M
As Donald Trump prepares to take office, he does so with an extensive cryptocurrency portfolio valued at nearly $13 million, setting a new precedent for the intersection of politics and digital assets. With his running mate JD Vance also holding significant Bitcoin investments, this upcoming administration is poised to become the most crypto-inclined in history.
Trump’s crypto holdings have seen impressive growth, with his portfolio now worth $12.77 million. Leading the charge is TROG, a meme coin that has gained substantial traction on social media. The value of his TROG holdings has surged by 253%, reaching a staggering $6.61 million for 210.34 billion coins. Following TROG is Ethereum (ETH), with Trump owning over 495 ETH, worth approximately $1.92 million. He also holds more than 478 wrapped Ether (WETH), valued at $1.85 million.
In addition to these, Trump’s portfolio includes MAGA (TRUMP), a political meme coin, valued at $1.05 million, which was airdropped to him. Other assets in his crypto portfolio include GUA, worth $523,900, and the stablecoin USDC valued at $138,860. Trump’s collection also boasts 107 NFTs, spread across 16 different collections, adding a digital art flair to his holdings.
This significant embrace of cryptocurrency by Trump and JD Vance represents a monumental shift in political dynamics, intertwining governance with blockchain technology. It’s a move that could set the stage for wider discussions around the regulation and legitimacy of digital currencies, potentially influencing future financial policies under their leadership.
For the first time in history, the U.S. presidency will be held by someone with millions in cryptocurrency holdings, and with a vice president who has substantial Bitcoin investments. This unprecedented alignment of political power and blockchain wealth could spark debates on the future of digital currencies and their role in shaping the nation’s economy.
