HIGHLIGHTS Trump securities trading reports revealed that he made up to $750 million in securities trades through early 2026. Coinbase, MARA Holdings and Strategy were involved in multiple crypto-related transactions. Over 2,000 trades were disclosed on federal Form 278-T. U.S. President Donald Trump has now diversified his financial footprint into crypto stocks from real estate and hospitality. He has made several trades in crypto stocks as revealed in newly released federal ethics forms. The filings show he engaged in wide-ranging trading activity with traditional finance and technology and crypto-related companies.
Over of President Trump’s Filing
The disclosures were made on Form 278-T documents, which report securities transactions worth more than $1,000 from government officials. Records do not give exact numbers, but rather estimated ranges of transactions. They also fail to disclose profit or loss, or who the person was who actually made the trades.
According to the filings, total trading volume was between $220 million and $750 million in the period from Jan. through March 2026. Trump’s assets are in a family trust run via his children, records said. Some of the trades that have been reported also seem like they were brokered by companies and not by Trump himself.
The disclosures came at a time when the Trump administration has been moving forward with a number of policy initiatives that directly impact cryptocurrencies. Amid these initiatives, it involves support for the CLARITY Act and de-escalating the enforcement environment for digital asset firms.

Nine distinct Coinbase stock purchases were listed. The disclosed value range for one trade was $100,001 to $250,000, as of February 10.
Trump’s records confirmed two other purchases of the MARA stock where the acquisition cost was less than $50,000. Outside of that, eight Strategy deals were reported, comprising both acquisitions and divestments, in January and February.
