Forbes: Trump's youngest son Barron is worth more than $150 million through his family's cryptocurrency business
PANews reported on October 20 that according to Forbes, Trump’s youngest son Barron has a net worth of slightly more than $150 million through his family’s cryptocurrency business. In September 2024, DT Marks Defi LLC, which holds the Trump family’s World Liberty stake, received a total of 22.5 billion crypto tokens called $WLFI. According to financial disclosure documents Trump filed as president, he owned 70% of DT Marks Defi LLC as of early this year, with his family holding the remaining 30%. Sons Eric, Don Jr. and Barron are all listed as co-founders. If the three share 30% of the shares equally, they will each receive 10%. According to data disclosed by the company and customers, World Liberty has sold approximately $675 million in tokens by August 2025. Barron's earned after-tax earnings of approximately $38 million. In March this year, World Liberty announced the launch of another product - USD1, a stablecoin pegged to the US dollar. The coin has a market capitalization of approximately $2.6 billion, which suggests that the operating company behind it is valued at approximately $880 million. An entity owned by the Trump family appears to own about 38% of the project, with Barron's share estimated to be worth about $34 million. Then in August, World Liberty reached an agreement with Alt5 Sigma, a publicly traded medical company that is trying to transform into a cryptocurrency treasury company. Alt5 also used previously raised funds to purchase $717 million worth of World Liberty Financial tokens, of which more than $500 million flowed into the Trump family company, with Barron receiving about $41 million after tax. In addition, Barron also holds approximately 2.25 billion World Liberty tokens, accounting for 10% of the 22.5 billion tokens originally allocated to Trump family-affiliated companies. Based on comprehensive calculations, 10% of the tokens held by Barron are currently valued at approximately US$45 million. Combining all of the above assets, Barron's net worth is slightly over $150 million.
