Public Citizen, a U.S. nonprofit consumer advocacy group, has published a report estimating that five categories of Trump-related crypto products have left investors with at least $4.7 billion in paper losses, most of them unrealized. The figures include roughly $3.2 billion from the TRUMP meme coin, at least $1 billion from the WLFI governance token, about $450 million from the Trump Media digital-asset treasury, and at least $9.3 million from Trump digital trading card NFTs. USD1 stablecoin losses were not counted. Public Citizen said the TRUMP meme coin losses mostly reflect wealth moving to a small group of early buyers, not value disappearing. The report cites Trump's June 2026 financial disclosure showing he made at least $1.4 billion from crypto businesses in 2025. The White House has previously said the president and his family have never been and will never be involved in a conflict of interest. The report was released Aug. 28, according to PANews.
A report issued Aug. 28 by Public Citizen, a U.S. nonprofit consumer advocacy group, estimates that five categories of Trump-related crypto products have left investors with at least $4.7 billion in paper losses. Most of those losses have yet to be realized.
The breakdown: roughly $3.2 billion from the TRUMP meme coin, at least $1 billion from the WLFI governance token, about $450 million from the Trump Media digital-asset treasury, and at least $9.3 million from Trump digital trading card NFTs. The USD1 stablecoin was excluded from the loss count.
Public Citizen said the TRUMP meme coin losses mostly reflect a transfer of wealth to a small group of early buyers, rather than value simply disappearing. The report also cites Trump's June 2026 financial disclosure, which showed he earned at least $1.4 billion from crypto businesses in 2025.
The White House has previously said the president and his family have never been and will never be involved in a conflict of interest.
