Listen to the news

Barron Trump, the youngest son of President Donald Trump, was estimated last year to have a net worth of about $150 million, exceeding that of his mother, First Lady Melania Trump.

Barron Trump’s Crypto Wealth

According to a Forbes analysis published last year, the majority of Barron’s fortune is derived from the Trump family’s cryptocurrency venture, World Liberty Financial (WLFI), which has added over $1.5 billion to the family’s wealth. Barron’s 10% stake in the project amounts to approximately $150 million.

A May Bloomberg report found that World Liberty Financial added $1.55 billion to the Trump family’s net worth, making it the largest single contributor to the family’s wealth.

Barron Trump is listed as a co-founder and ‘DeFi visionary’ of World Liberty Financial, while his older brothers Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump are listed as ‘Web3 ambassadors.’

Forbes valued Melania Trump’s fortune at around $20 million in a separate analysis, making Barron wealthier than his mother.

Trump’s Billion-Dollar Crypto Fortune

Trump’s cryptocurrency ventures netted him over $1 billion in 2025, the very first year of his presidency, according to financial disclosures released in June.

The windfall included over $520 million from the sale of tokens issued by World Liberty Financial and more than $635 million in royalties collected from the Official Trump (CRYPTO: TRUMP) memecoin.

The Trumps licensed the family name rather than investing their own capital, promoted the ventures through social media and public appearances, and collected revenue as investors piled in.

Price Action: At the time of writing, WLFI was exchanging hands at $0.05868, down 2.47% in the last 24 hours, according to data from Benzinga Pro.
