Public Citizen report estimates Trump-linked crypto ventures left investors at least $4.7B underwater
A Public Citizen watchdog report, as cited by multiple outlets, estimated that crypto ventures linked to President Donald Trump and his family left investors at least $4.7 billion underwater, based on an assessed gap between what investors paid and the current value of their holdings across the ventures [1] [2] [3] [4].
One report cited by Cointelegraph said that investors in World Liberty Financial’s USD 1 stablecoin “haven’t suffered major losses,” while many lost billions of dollars in other Trump-linked ventures [2].
The crypto.news report also stated that the Trump-linked ventures generated about $1.4 billion for the president in 2025, according to Public Citizen [1].
