As a seasoned investor with over three decades of observing the financial landscape of the United States, I find it intriguing to see former President Donald Trump’s latest financial disclosures, particularly his involvement in cryptocurrency and branded Bibles.
On Thursday, it was revealed that Donald Trump, who used to be the President of the USA, claims to own over a million dollars worth of cryptocurrency and has made approximately $300,000 from selling branded Bibles. This disclosure offers some intriguing insights into his financial dealings.
Trump’s Bible, known as “The Greenwood Bible,” retails for $59.99 and features the handwritten lyrics from Lee Greenwood’s song “God Bless the U.S.A.” signed copies sell for $1,000. These Bibles have been popular purchases, generating Trump approximately $300,000 in revenue.
Apart from his Bible-related earnings, it’s been reported by CNBC that Trump holds investments worth between $1 million and $5 million in cryptocurrencies. This disclosure also indicates the presence of a cryptocurrency wallet and an “ethereum virtual key,” suggesting substantial holdings in digital currencies for him.
Originally, Trump labeled cryptocurrency as a fraudulent venture. However, his perspective on digital currencies has noticeably evolved. This transformation can be attributed to the influential lobbying efforts of the crypto industry and the growing curiosity among Trump’s followers, particularly the younger generation.
Trump’s approach towards cryptocurrency has softened, and he has emphasized the significance of American involvement to combat China’s influence. His political campaign is referred to as the “crypto army,” indicating an active engagement with the cryptocurrency community.
As an analyst, I’ve observed some interesting developments regarding Trump’s social media company, Truth Social. Initially, he valued it between $5 million and $25 million in the same year. However, this year, he’s raised that estimate to over $50 million, a gradual increase we’ve noticed. Additionally, his trademarks in China have seen a significant surge. Last year, he had only two, but the latest report shows over 100.
Each year, federal officials (candidates and incumbents) are required to publicly disclose their financial reports, providing details about their assets, investments in stocks, and income.
