Claim
US President Donald Trump is earning the most of his income from the crypto business.
“कल हमने आपको यह बताया था कि क्रिप्टो बिजनेस से अमेरिका के राष्ट्रपति डॉनल्ड ट्रंप सबसे ज्यादा कमाई कर रहे हैं।”▶ Watch source segment
Rationale
Trump's own annual financial disclosure, filed with the US Office of Government Ethics on June 30, 2026 (two days before the broadcast), reported roughly $1.4 billion in crypto-related income for 2025 — about $594 million from World Liberty Financial, about $636 million from his meme coin business, and nearly $197 million from a stablecoin-related equity sale. This was the largest component of his roughly $2.2 billion in reported income, far exceeding real estate and other sources. Multiple wire and mainstream outlets (Bloomberg, NBC, CBS, CNBC, Forbes) corroborate that crypto was his single biggest income source, so the anchor's statement is accurate as of the broadcast date.
