Former U.S. President Donald Trump‘s on-chain crypto holdings have exceeded the $10 million mark. The surge was primarily driven by a significant rise in the value of the MAGA (TRUMP) meme coin. According to Trump’s portfolio, he has invested over $7 million in the TRUMP coin.
Donald Trump’s Crypto Holdings
As of this morning, Trump’s digital assets portfolio has been bolstered by a notable increase in the price of TRUMP coin. According to Arkham Intelligence, Trump currently holds $7.3 million worth of MAGA crypto
Hence, the total crypto holdings in the US presidential candidate’s portfolio amounts to $10.14 million. Moreover, Ethereum (ETH) is second in the list of Trump’s crypto investments with $1.81 million invested. However, the pro-crypto presidential candidate hasn’t invested in the largest cryptocurrency, Bitcoin (BTC).
Whilst, his interest in the TRUMP coin, which is a political meme coin based on Solana, suggests his tactic to promote himself within the crypto community via this holding. The Republican presidential candidate reinforced his commitment to protecting the crypto sector, promising to nurture a robust crypto environment in the US.
In a speech delivered in Washington D.C. on Saturday, May 25, Trump vowed to take all necessary actions to safeguard the future of digital currencies. This statement follows closely after the former President’s recent announcement that he would accept cryptocurrency donations.
During his address on Saturday, Trump assured that Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies would remain a key part of the U.S. financial system. Moreover, he stressed his support for the right of individuals to hold and manage their own digital assets. He said, “I will support the right to self-custody.”
Trump also criticized Senator Elizabeth Warren and her regulatory initiatives. In addition, he stated, “I will keep Elizabeth Warren and her goons away from your Bitcoin.” Trump further promised his audience that he would never permit the establishment of a central bank digital currency.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr Issues Scathing Critique
On the other hand, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. lambasted Trump, accusing him of failing to deliver on key promises and instead advancing policies that benefited the wealthy and powerful. “President Trump scammed American workers,” Kennedy asserted. Moreover, he highlighted unfulfilled promises to “bring back manufacturing, raise wages, fix trade deals, close the carried interest loophole, and help small farmers.”
Kennedy, another pro-crypto presidential candidate, argued that Trump’s achievements primarily aligned with the Republican establishment’s interests. “We got a tax cut for Jeff Bezos, deregulation for special interests, and giveaways to agriculture conglomerates,” he stated. This underscores the administration’s favoritism towards big business.
RFK Jr. also criticized Trump’s appointments, noting his Interior Secretary was an “oil & gas lobbyist,” the Defense Secretary a “Raytheon lobbyist,” and other key positions held by individuals with ties to major industries. Additionally, he pointed out that Trump’s support for farmers disproportionately benefited “Big Ag conglomerates” rather than small farmers.
Kennedy further condemned Trump’s handling of domestic unrest and foreign policy, accusing him of inflaming racial tensions and exacerbating international conflicts. He also blamed Trump for the economic fallout from COVID-19 lockdowns and for worsening the opioid crisis. “If you think a second Trump term would be any different, you are engaging in wishful thinking,” Kennedy concluded.
