- Nansen figures cited by CoinDesk put losses from TRUMP wallets at $3.81 billion across 988,905 wallets. Winners: 492,285 wallets in profit, up $4.04 billion.
- Trump pulled in over $1.4 billion from family crypto projects in 2025, with Reuters saying $635 million came from Trump meme coin sales.
- Official Trump changed hands between $1.82 and $1.83 on Saturday, holding around 97% under its January 2025 high.
Trump booked about $635 million from his meme coin sales in 2025—well ahead of the total net gain seen in the 1.48 million TRUMP buyer wallets tracked by Nansen. Nansen data, as reported by CoinDesk, pegged that net wallet gain at $236 million after losses. Trump’s reported haul is about 2.7 times that figure.
The gap is important for investors. It points to a fee-and-brand trade instead of a typical equity risk deal. Nansen data showed 988,905 wallets lost $3.81 billion and 492,285 wallets gained $4.04 billion. Gains went to early buyers in under $1 before the token hit almost $75 two days later, according to CoinDesk.

Losses hit more than just TRUMP. Melania Meme was changing hands around $0.083, nearly 99% off its $13.05 peak, according to CoinGecko and Kraken. Nansen data found that out of 26,663 WLFI wallets tracked on the secondary market, 22,715 were underwater. Those wallets had $83 million in losses and just $23 million in profits, CoinDesk said.
Peter Schiff said big players are putting in money to get access, not because the token has real value. “You don’t have to give him money directly, just buy his token,” Schiff said. He also called it “a lousy investment.” BeInCrypto
Legal questions haven’t gone away. Stephen Gillers, a law and ethics professor at New York University, told investors could still try class-action suits after Trump “encouraged supporters to invest” as he was “cashing out.” Nansen said early holders locked in big gains, but most retail traders took losses.

Policy risk has moved into crypto market-structure talks. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand backs the CLARITY Act but said in the Senate it won’t move forward unless there’s an ethics rule for senior officials, including the president and vice president. “There will be no one voting for this bill if we don’t have an ethics provision,” she told Consensus Miami.
