Nansen data cited in recent reporting found that 988,905 wallets that bought the Official Trump memecoin had recorded combined losses of $3.81 billion by the end of June.
The TRUMP buyer-loss analysis tracked wallets that bought the token after its January 2025 launch. The figures include realized losses and paper losses for holders who had not sold.
Wallet counts do not always equal individual people, because one investor can control multiple wallets and some wallets can belong to platforms or custodians. Still, the data shows how losses were distributed across the retail side of the memecoin trade.
The cited Nansen figures placed TRUMP near $1.76, down roughly 97% from its $75.35 peak. The token’s market value had already collapsed from its post-launch surge, leaving later buyers exposed while early sellers and project-linked revenue streams captured most of the upside.
Trump Crypto Income Tops $1B
Trump’s 2025 financial disclosure showed large income streams tied to crypto-linked ventures, including the TRUMP memecoin business and World Liberty Financial.
The 2025 financial disclosure shows CIC Digital reported $635,068,835 in royalties from a license agreement with Celebration Coins. CIC Digital is the Trump-linked entity tied to NFT and memecoin licensing.
The same disclosure also shows multiple World Liberty Financial token-sale distributions and a $196.875 million Stablecoin Holdco transaction. Reuters calculated more than $1.4 billion in crypto-related income, including World Liberty proceeds and memecoin-linked royalties.
The latest figures build on the earlier disclosure story in which Trump reported more than $1 billion in crypto-related income as World Liberty and TRUMP revenue expanded.
Retail Losses Renew Ethics Debate
The contrast between retail losses and project-linked revenue has renewed scrutiny of political memecoins, presidential business interests and pending U.S. crypto legislation.
Trump recently said he did not know the exact amount earned from his family’s crypto ventures during a CNBC interview. He also said he was not involved in day-to-day management, while the White House has said Trump’s assets are managed independently. The interview followed earlier reporting that Trump did not know the amount generated by the family’s crypto businesses.
The issue is also feeding into the Senate debate over market-structure legislation. The CLARITY Act has already cleared Senate Banking in a 15-9 vote, but ethics language around elected officials and crypto-linked ventures remains part of the wider negotiation.
As of July 4, Nansen’s cited data showed 988,905 TRUMP buyer wallets with $3.81 billion in combined losses, while Trump’s 2025 disclosure and related calculations put his crypto-linked income above $1 billion.
