At just 19 years old, Barron Trump has amassed a fortune  exceeding $150 million, primarily fueled by his deep involvement in the Trump family’s cryptocurrency venture, World Liberty Financial (WLFI).

According to Forbes, Barron’s estimated 10% share of the Trump-affiliated crypto companyhas soared in value following a  series of successful ventures tied to WLFI, including token sales, equity swaps, and the launch of a new stablecoin, USD1. 

These assets now place Barron ahead of his mother, Melania Trump, in personal net worth.

World Liberty Financial was quietly co-founded in late 2024,  mere weeks before Donald Trump’s successful bid for a second term. 

Barron joined the venture alongside his older brothers, Don Jr. and Eric, under a holding company called Trump Marks Defi LLC. 

His trajectory shifted dramatically after the 2024 election. 

As Trump  prepared for his return to the White House, interest in WLFI spiked. 

Tech billionaire Justin Sun, who had previously been under investigation by Securities and Exchange Commission injected $75 million into the company. 

Around the same time, the SEC paused its probe into Sun. 

This funding influx propelled WLFI to over $675 million in token sales by August 2025, according to internal company estimates.

Barron is believed to have received 2.25 billion WLFI tokens, 10% of the Trump family’s total allocation, from the initial token distributions. 

While these tokens were  initially restricted from trading, a community vote in August allowed partial unlocking of holdings for some investors. 

Currently Barron’s token holdings are conservatively estimated at $45 million in value, with more potentially unlocked pending future votes.

Additionally, Barron earned about $38 million after taxes from early token sales and equity deals, including a $750 million transaction with a public company, Alt5 Sigma, that further inflated WLFI’s market presence.

In March 2025, World Liberty Financial  introduced USD1, a stablecoin pegged to the U.S. dollar. 

Currently, USD1 boasts a market cap of $2.5 billion, significantly bolstering WLFI’s valuation. 

A Trump family entity is reported to  hold 38% of the USD1 business, with Barron’s estimated stake worth another $34 million.

Born in 2006 to Donald and Melania Trump, Barron Trump had a relatively quiet upbringing compared to his half-siblings. 

His visibility remained  restricted throughout most of his childhood.

In 2020, Melania Trump reportedly renegotiated her prenuptial agreement to secure a  more favorable inheritance path for her son, as  detailed in The Art of Her Deal. 

That  foresight seems to have paid off. 

Since enrolling at NYU’s Stern School of Business in 2024, Barron has played an increasingly active role in the family’s digital ventures.

According to Yahoo Finance and BeInCrypto, Barron was the first member of the Trump family to embrace crypto. 

He allegedly introduced his father to the concept of digital wallets and convinced him to  back WLFI. 

Trump himself has publicly credited Barron’s advice with  enhancing his outreach to younger voters.

Barron isn’t the only Trump sibling  to ride the crypto wave. 

Don Jr. reportedly saw his fortune rise to $500 million over the past year, while Eric Trump’s wealth jumped from $40 million to $750 million,  largely attributed to WLFI.

Donald Trump, meanwhile, saw a $3 billion increase in his net worth in 2025 alone, placing him at No. 201 on Forbes’ list of America’s wealthiest individuals. 

His crypto portfolio, led by WLFI and USD1, accounted for a majority of that gain.

While many of Barron’s WLFI tokens remain locked and contingent on future governance votes, analysts  anticipate that the total valuation of his assets could climb even higher if additional unlocking measures are approved. 

Even at current valuations, his $150 million net worth places him far ahead of most Americans his age, and  firmly within the upper echelons of young entrepreneurs worldwide.
