On September 8, the Trump family’s net worth rose about $1.3 billion, driven by World Liberty Financial (WLFI) and American Bitcoin (ABTC). As Blockonomi reported wealth jump, the figure reflects recent market pricing. Separate coverage calculated net gain using this week’s trading levels. The family is also exploring real‑estate tokenization as its next blockchain move.
ABTC began trading on Nasdaq on September 3 following its merger with Gryphon Digital Mining; a company release confirmed Nasdaq listing and described early demand. WLFI’s public launch days earlier drew heavy volumes; an industry newsletter detailed token launch, including a large private sale and a family allocation under lockup. Prices have been volatile, yet paper gains remain notable.
“Our Nasdaq debut marks a historic milestone in bringing Bitcoin into the core of U.S. capital markets” said Eric Trump, co‑founder and chief strategy officer of American Bitcoin. He said the listing should help the company scale and attract institutions.
WLFI is a DeFi project linked to the family. Trading has seen sharp swings since launch. ABTC is a bitcoin accumulation and mining platform formed through a merger with Gryphon Digital Mining and supported by industry partners. Both projects now sit at the center of the family’s broader digital‑asset strategy.
The family is assessing real‑estate tokenization as a possible next step. Tokenization could put property rights or cash flows on‑chain, so investors buy small slices of real assets. Any future structure would need to navigate securities rules, custody, and investor protections across U.S. and international markets.
