A surge in Bitcoin millionaires contrasts with a significant decline in Donald
Trump’s personal crypto holdings during the first half of 2025.
Bitcoin Millionaires: The Rise of the Digital Elite
In the first half of 2025, the number of Bitcoin addresses holding over
$1 million surged by 26,758, reaching a total of 182,327 by June 30 according
to a
report by finance and crypto platform Finbold. This growth was primarily
driven by a robust rebound in the second quarter, where the number of
millionaire wallets increased by 21,589, reflecting renewed institutional
interest and strategic accumulation during market dips.

The April 2025 halving event, which reduced block rewards from 6.25 to
3.125 BTC, further fueled bullish sentiment, propelling Bitcoin’s price to a
high of $111,970
on May 22. This price surge contributed to the creation of new
millionaires, as investors capitalized on the appreciating asset.
Trump’s Crypto Portfolio: A Tale of Decline
Contrasting the rise in Bitcoin millionaires, President Donald Trump’s
personal cryptocurrency portfolio experienced a significant downturn in the
first half of 2025, according to the report. Starting the year with a valuation
of approximately $10.16 million, the portfolio’s value plummeted by 78.35% to just
$2.20 million by June 30. The majority of this decline occurred in the first
quarter, with the portfolio hitting a low of $1.96 million by the end of March.

Despite a modest recovery of around $240,000 in the second quarter, the
portfolio’s performance highlighted the volatility and risks associated with
speculative crypto investments. Trump’s holdings included assets like the meme
token TROG, USDC, MAGA (TRUMP), and MATIC, with the largest holding being TROG,
valued at over $800,000.
World Liberty Financial: A Family Affair
In contrast to Trump’s personal crypto investments, World Liberty
Financial (WLFI), a
decentralized finance platform reportedly backed by Trump and his family,
demonstrated strong growth throughout the year. Starting with a valuation of
$72.82 million in January 2025, WLFI’s portfolio soared to $178.15 million by
June 30, marking a quarterly gain of 115.89%.
