Claim

A new allegation against Donald Trump is that as President he was making policies to promote cryptocurrency while simultaneously investing his own money heavily in the same cryptocurrency.

“अब एक नया आरोप लगा है और वो यह है कि एक तरफ वो क्रिप्टो करेंसी को बढ़ावा देने की नीतियां बना रहे थे एक राष्ट्रपति के तौर पर और दूसरी तरफ उसी क्रिप्टो करेंसी में जमकर अपना पैसा भी निवेश कर रहे थे।”

Rationale

The core of the claim is accurate and was a major news story on the broadcast date. Trump's 2025 financial disclosure, released around July 1, 2026, showed roughly $1.4 billion in crypto income (from the $TRUMP memecoin and World Liberty Financial) during the same period he pursued pro-crypto executive actions and legislation as president, prompting ethics experts and lawmakers to allege a conflict of interest. The one imprecision is 'investing his own money heavily': Trump's gains came mainly from launching and licensing his own crypto ventures and taking royalties rather than deploying personal capital as an outside investor, though he does hold crypto-linked assets. Because the anchor frames it as a newly surfaced allegation (आरोप) of simultaneously promoting crypto by policy while personally profiting from it, the substance holds; hence accurate with a minor wording caveat.
