Barron Trump Emerges as Crypto Millionaire From Trump Blockchain Project

Barron Trump may have earned up to $40 million from the Trump family’s cryptocurrency venture, World Liberty Financial, according to The Street. The blockchain-based project was launched in September 2024 and named Barron a “Web3 ambassador” alongside Donald Jr. and Eric Trump. The 19-year-old student at NYU’s Stern School of Business may have earned up to $40 million from the venture, with about $25 million remaining after IRS taxes, according to Forbes. The Trump sons are listed as co-founders in a “gold paper” issued by the company. WLF has reportedly sold at least $550 million in tokens, sending revenue to stakeholders after the first $30 million. Trump’s June 13 financial disclosure shows he holds a 52.5% stake in the company, with family members owning another 22.5%.
