President Donald Trump’s net worth has surged by more than $3 billion over the past year — but it’s his youngest son who may have the brightest financial future.
According to Forbes, the president’s children continue to grow their wealth through cryptocurrency ventures and international business deals.
The family’s entry into crypto reportedly began with Barron Trump. At just 19 years old and a sophomore at NYU, he already holds an estimated net worth of around $150 million. During the launch of his World Liberty Financial crypto company last fall, President Trump credited Barron for sparking the family’s interest in digital assets. “He’s got four wallets or something, and I’m saying, ‘What is a wallet?’ ” Trump joked.
Beyond his current net worth, Barron also controls billions in locked-up tokens. Forbes counts only a portion of these holdings since they aren’t yet tradable, but once unlocked, they could potentially add another $525 million to his fortune.
Crypto has also been lucrative for Don Jr., 47, and Eric, 41, whose fortunes stand at $500 million and $750 million, respectively. Together, they co-own the mining venture American Bitcoin and hold stakes in World Liberty Financial. Earlier this year, the brothers also traveled to Qatar to finalize a licensing deal for a Trump-branded golf course.

Ivanka Trump, 43, currently sits behind her younger brother on Forbes’ ranking with an estimated net worth of $100 million. However, her husband, Jared Kushner, 44, has become the second-wealthiest member of the family. Thanks to his private equity firm, Affinity Partners, Kushner Companies, and key Middle Eastern backers he developed ties with during his White House years, Jared surpassed $1 billion in 2025.
Melania Trump, 55, brought in approximately $20 million through book sales, speeches, a documentary, and her own meme coin. That still places her behind Barron, who significantly outpaced her in earnings this year.
Noticeably absent from Forbes’ ranking were Tiffany Trump, 31, and her husband Michael Boulos, 28. Tiffany, a Georgetown Law graduate, has not publicly shared details about her career, though Boulos is known to come from a wealthy family with business interests.
At the top of the list is President Trump himself, now worth $7.3 billion. His wealth jumped by $3 billion since last year, lifting him to No. 201 on the Forbes 400 list — 118 spots higher than in 2024. Roughly $2 billion of that growth came from his crypto ventures, while international licensing added another major boost.
It appears Barron is following closely in his father’s footsteps. A source told PEOPLE in August that he spent his summer break in meetings with partners, developing tech projects and preparing business ventures.

“Barron has been actively working on his own financial interests and has spent time with others who he is involved with in that area,” the insider explained.
Another source noted earlier this year that the young Trump is “interested in business in general, developing properties, making money and being involved in successful projects. He has his own ideas and understands what people of his age are looking for. He is quite entrepreneurial, bright and not shy about getting his own career in gear.”
