A new government report reveals that President Donald Trump earned millions from cryptocurrency and media settlements last year, raising concerns about potential conflicts of interest. Trump’s financial disclosure shows over $1.4 billion from his family’s crypto ventures, including $500 million from World Liberty Financial and $635 million from $TRUMP meme coin sales.

However, his close ties to the cryptocurrency industry have sparked criticism, prompting calls from Democratic senators for hearings on potential corruption linked to UAE investments in his ventures.
