Claim
Of Trump's total income from his various businesses last year, approximately 69% came from crypto.
“पिछले साल अलग-अलग बिजनेसेस से ट्रंप की कुल आमदनी को अगर देखें तो उनकी कुल कमाई में लगभग 69% क्रिप्टो से आई है।”▶ Watch source segment
Rationale
The core of the claim — that crypto was the largest source of Trump's income last year and made up the majority of it — is supported by his 2025 financial disclosure (about $1.4 billion in crypto against roughly $2.2 billion total income). However, that ratio is approximately 64%, not the ~69% stated. The 69% figure overstates the actual share reported by primary-source disclosure and mainstream outlets; it could only approach 69% under a narrower 'business income only' denominator that the anchor did not specify. The directional point is true but the precise percentage is inflated, making the claim misleading.
