Trump-Linked Crypto Ventures Leave Investors With Billions in Losses
US consumer advocacy group Public Citizen reported that crypto ventures linked to Donald Trump and his family have left investors with at least $4.7 billion underwater since 2022.
The largest losses were attributed to the TRUMP meme coin, which had resulted in $3.2 billion in losses for investors after losing over 97% of its value from an all-time high of $73 in January 2025.
Trump's Crypto Empire also included Trump Digital Trading Cards and two tokens from World Liberty Financial, which Public Citizen estimated had left investors with at least $9.3 million and $1 billion underwater respectively.
The group put losses tied to Trump Media's digital-asset treasury at $450 million, bringing the total to at least $4.7 billion.
