    Trump Announces Over $1.4B Earned from Crypto Businesses

    Donald Trump’s latest financial disclosures reveal that last year, he earned over $1.4 billion from his family’s cryptocurrency ventures. This amount highlights how digital assets, bolstered by his policies, now constitute the majority of his income. According to the disclosures filed with the U.S. Office of Government Ethics for 2025, nearly $800 million of that income came from World Liberty Financial, a crypto firm he co-founded with his sons. This included over $520 million from selling crypto tokens and more than $250 million from selling parts of the company, with family members also sharing in that income.

    Additionally, Trump reported earning $635 million from the sale of his meme coins. The shift towards crypto income is substantial; in his previous report last June, he disclosed only $57.35 million from token sales at World Liberty, which has since surged to over half a billion dollars.

    It is estimated that the Trump family has made at least $2.3 billion from crypto projects since Trump returned to the White House in 2025. During his presidency, Trump took steps that appeared to favor the industry, such as establishing federal rules for stablecoins and reducing enforcement actions by authorities like the Justice Department and SEC.

    Beyond crypto, Trump also reported over $80 million from media settlement deals and significant income from licensing his name to international property developers. A spokesperson from his team asserted that neither Trump nor his family has engaged in conflicts of interest and that his efforts helped position the U.S. as a global crypto hub through executive actions.

    While the White House states that his business interests are managed by his children, Trump remains the ultimate beneficiary of assets held in trusts that generate income.

    Traditional businesses still contribute to his wealth, with revenue from his golf courses and resorts increasing by 15% to just over $500 million in 2025. Notable growth occurred at his Mar-a-Lago club in Florida, which saw revenue jump to $77 million from $50 million the previous year, and at his West Palm Beach club, which grew by 27%. Revenue at his Los Angeles course, however, declined.

    In April, Trump hosted winners of his second annual meme coin contest at Mar-a-Lago. His family’s business emphasized transparency, releasing an extensive disclosure report, nearly 1,000 pages long, claiming it to be one of the most comprehensive in presidential history.

    Experts note that presidents and vice presidents are exempt from some conflict of interest laws, which has historically allowed them to manage personal finances amid potential conflicts. However, this norm is increasingly scrutinized, with calls for expanded ethics reforms, such as limiting the types of investments officials can hold.

  • Bhad Bhabie Sued for $675K Despite Earning $1.4M Monthly

    Bhad Bhabie Sued for $675K Despite Earning $1.4M Monthly

    Bhad Bhabie Sued by American Express for Nearly $675,000

    American Express has filed a lawsuit against Bhad Bhabie, claiming she owes nearly $675,000 (£494,162). Despite earning around $1,480,000 (£1,084,000) from her OnlyFans account alone, the 22-year-old seems to have left some credit card bills unpaid. The accusations assert that the artist breached her credit agreement by neglecting to make required payments.

    Bhad Bhabie, whose real name is Danielle Peskowitz Bregoli, initially gained fame as a viral meme after her appearance on Dr. Phil in 2016. During the episode, titled “I Want to Give Up My Car-Stealing, Knife-Waving, Twerking 13-Year-Old Daughter Who Tried to Frame Me for a Crime,” she appeared alongside her mother.

    Known for her catchphrase, “Catch me outside; how about that?” this line became widely circulated online thanks to her distinct accent. Following her breakout moment, she faced some challenging years, including probation and a budding music career.

    In 2017, Bhad Bhabie signed with Atlantic Records and released her debut single, “These Heaux.” Since then, she has toured and engaged in a diss track rivalry with Alabama Barker, daughter of Travis Barker.

    Just days after turning 18 in 2021, she launched her OnlyFans profile, purportedly earning over $1 million (£732,400) within just six hours. Currently, she is reported to make approximately $1,480,000 monthly, ranking her among the platform’s top creators.

    Reports indicate that Bhad Bhabie stopped making payments to her credit card company around December 2024, despite her substantial earnings. American Express extended her credit in April 2021, according to court documents obtained by People. These documents reveal that the credit was issued for purchases and cash advances on an American Express account.

    The lawsuit claims that Bhad Bhabie had promised to cover all charges, fees, and interest on the account, either by paying the full amount monthly or making regular payments. Now, American Express seeks full reimbursement along with damages for the breach of contract.

    In a recent interview with Interview Magazine, Bhad Bhabie referred to OnlyFans as “a good way to make a lot of money really fast.” In response to the lawsuit, she stated, “Sh*t not true. Where do they get this nonsense?”

    Digital Phablet has reached out to both American Express and Bhad Bhabie’s representatives for further comments.

    Kylie Jenner revealed she was unaware of her beauty brand’s earnings due to not having access to her account password.

    The 27-year-old reality television personality launched Kylie Cosmetics in 2015, initially known as Lip Kit by Kylie, which offered only a liquid lipstick and lip liner duo. She admitted she was shocked to discover just how profitable her business had become within its first year, raking in millions.

    In an interview with Dazed magazine, she shared, “I didn’t even have my Shopify account password, so I had no clue how much I was making. I knew it was doing well, but I just didn’t…”

    She continued, “Honestly, it wasn’t about the money for me. It was more of a creative outlet where I could bring joy to others. About a year later, when I finally got access to the account, I was blown away by the numbers.”

    According to reports, her beauty brand generated $420 million in revenue within its first 18 months, solely from lip kits. The brand was rebranded to Kylie Cosmetics in 2016 and has since expanded to include a diverse range of beauty products and skincare lines.

    By the end of 2016, the brand’s annual revenue reportedly reached about $300 million. In 2019, Kylie sold a controlling interest in her company to Coty, a major player in the beauty industry, for an impressive $600 million.

    Kylie reflected on her journey as she approaches the 10th anniversary of her brand, expressing gratitude for her achievements. “As I celebrate a decade of Kylie Cosmetics, I find myself reminiscing about the early days,” she said. “Looking back, I realize I may not have recognized the magnitude of my success at that time.”

    “I was so young and had endless opportunities; I still feel that way. My goal now is to be present and appreciate the incredible blessings in my life rather than wait 20 years to reflect.”
