Claim
The largest share of income, $1.4 billion, came from cryptocurrency.
“सबसे ज्यादा 1.4 बिलियन डॉलर की आमदनी क्रिप्टो करेंसी से हुई है”▶ Watch source segment
Rationale
The broadcast (an Aaj Tak segment titled 'How did Trump earn $1.4 billion from cryptocurrency?') refers to Donald Trump's 2025 U.S. personal financial disclosure released end-June 2026. Multiple reputable outlets (Al Jazeera, Washington Post, NBC News, Bloomberg, Time, ABC News) confirm Trump earned more than $1.4 billion from crypto ventures in 2025, and that crypto was the single largest component of his roughly $2 billion total income, exceeding real estate and other sources. Both the specific figure ($1.4 billion) and the characterization as the largest income share match the primary-source filing.
