Why Trump Is in Crypto?

Do you know the real reason Donald Trump went into crypto?

Today, nearly 40% of the Trump family's $2.9 billion fortune comes from digital assets.

The $TRUMP coin alone has pulled in over $350 million, and his DeFi platform, World Liberty Financial, raised another $550 million — with the family keeping most of the revenue.

For Trump, crypto isn't just profit.

It's independence — raising money directly from his base instead of GOP donors.

With Truth Social stock, $TRUMP and $MELANIA coins, his supporters can back him directly, almost like a political Patreon.

It also gives him political leverage.

As president, he's pushed crypto-friendly policies like stablecoins, while his ventures attract billions in foreign capital from Abu Dhabi to Chinese investors.

But here's the tradeoff: crypto makes him free from billionaires, yet ties him to something even riskier.

He has to keep the crowd hyped.

If tokens crash — like $MELANIA losing 98% — it dents his credibility.

This isn't donor pressure anymore, it's about loyalty and spectacle.

So yes, crypto gives Trump freedom — but it also locks him into a game where hype and attention decide everything.
