June 14th was Donald Trump’s 79th birthday and also the 250th anniversary of the US Army. He celebrated with a $45 million military parade in Washington D.C. and got both patriotic and financial attention. What’s getting more buzz? Trump’s growing influence in the crypto space.

According to Arkham Intelligence, Trump’s digital wallet is now worth around $1.49 million. Down from its previous high of $32 million, but still a big deal for a high profile figure in the crypto space.

The star of his portfolio is TROG, a meme coin with Trump and frog imagery, currently worth $948,700. He also holds USDC stablecoin, Ethereum and his own TRUMP coin. Other notable performers are PEEZY, a trending meme coin in Trump’s growing crypto collection.

How Trump Makes Money from NFTs and Meme Coins

Trump’s crypto journey started with NFTs and has since expanded into multiple high-yield ventures. A Forbes investigation estimates his total crypto earnings exceed $1 billion, adding to his reported $5.6 billion net worth.

Key crypto revenue streams are:
  • Trump NFT sales: $7 million, $4 million post-tax
  • TRUMP meme coin fees: Over $350 million
  • World Liberty Financial (a family-led crypto venture): $390 million value, $246 million after tax

Trump being in crypto is not just symbolic, it’s profitable and strategic. His team is cashing in on digital fan engagement, campaign funding via crypto and market speculation tied to his persona.

Influence on Crypto Price Trends

Trump’s influence goes beyond holding digital coins. His persona is driving meme coin trends and speculative rallies. Coins tied to his image often see short term spikes around big events like political rallies, campaign announcements and even his birthday.

Notably:
  • Market analysts say these spikes are often temporary and speculative
  • Historical patterns show hype driven gains rarely sustain long term value

But with ongoing geopolitical shifts and a potential second Trump presidency on the horizon, some investors think these digital assets could double in value if the broader market enters a new bull run.

As the intersection of politics and crypto deepens, Donald Trump’s role as a crypto influencer is becoming more central – not just to his fans but to the entire crypto economy.
