Claim
Trump received $800 million from World Liberty Financial, a cryptocurrency venture linked to his family.
“राष्ट्रपति ट्रंप के परिवार से जुड़ी क्रिप्टो करेंसी वर्ल्ड लिबर्टी फाइनेंसियल से उन्हें 800 मिलियन मिले हैं”▶ Watch source segment
Rationale
Trump's 2025 federal financial disclosure, reported July 1, 2026 (day before the broadcast), attributes roughly $800 million to World Liberty Financial — about $527 million in token-sale proceeds plus over $250 million from the sale of interests in the business. WLF is a cryptocurrency venture co-founded by Trump's sons (Donald Jr. and Eric) with the Witkoff family, with Trump as 'co-founder emeritus,' so the family linkage is correct. Some outlets cite ~$550–580M when counting only token sales, but the fuller WLF-linked figure reaches ~$800M, making the anchor's claim substantially accurate; the modest deduction reflects that the exact figure depends on whether business-interest sales are included.
