  • Trump's crypto portfolio fell from $23M evaluation to $1M.

U.S. President Donald Trump’s crypto holdings have been on a sharp decline ever since the broader market turmoil occurred due to newly imposed tariffs that blew up in his own face. According to Arkham Intelligence’s data, the Republican President’s crypto holdings fell from a $23 million level to a $1 million level since the start of January this year to date. Let’s take a closer look at some of the most crucial factors that appear to have triggered a sharp decline in the president’s digital asset holdings.

Donald Trump’s Crypto Holdings Plummet; Here Are The Tokens Bought

According to the latest Arkham data, Donald Trump’s crypto holdings encompassed tokens such as TROG, TRUMP, TUA, MATIC, GUA, WFI, USACOIN, and the stablecoin USDC, among others. All of the abovementioned tokens, except stablecoins, have witnessed a steep decline ever since the year kicked off.

Per the data, Trump’s digital asset holdings totaled over $23 million as of mid-January this year. However, following a massive correction in Bitcoin, Ether, and other crypto prices, the President’s portfolio shredded down to $1.15 million as of press time.

Crypto Market Correction: What’s Fueling Bears?

It’s vital to consider that the 2025 bull cycle halted as U.S. President Donald Trump announced new tariffs, which eventually blew up in his own face. In light of these tariffs, global markets responded by losing alarming values, reflecting investor uncertainty.

A hawkish stance from the U.S. Fed, as interest rates were constantly kept unchanged, has added to the heat on risk assets. CoinGape earlier reported that the U.S. JOLTS data also came in weaker than expected, adding to macro heat.

In retaliation, the broader crypto market erased concerning values in tandem with the U.S. stock market.

Trump’s Crypto Prices Crash

The drop in Donald Trump’s crypto portfolio is also attributable to the tokens in it that witnessed a price crash.

TROG coin has erased nearly 19% weekly while losing roughly 28% over the past month. The meme token currently trades at $0.000003258.

TRUMP coin’s price crashed 22% over the week and erased over 31% the month, exchanging hands at $7.91. The PolitiFi token that once stood among the top 10 coins by market cap is now ranking 49th. Also, MATIC price lost 13% weekly and slumped 26% over the month, trading at $0.1759.

Overall, other tokens in the President’s portfolio also crashed in light of the broader trends mentioned above. Triggered by these bearish events, even Donald Trump’s crypto portfolio dropped to $1 million.
