Key Facts

關鍵事實

Trump maintains control over and can profit from his businesses while in office through a revocable trust, of which he is both the sole donor and sole beneficiary.

特朗普通過可撤銷的信託在任職期間保持控制權，並可以從他的業務中獲利，他既是唯一的捐助者又是唯一的受益人。

In his first term, those looking to support Trump financially could lend him money against his real estate, license his name, buy his assets, join one of his clubs or book a hotel.

在他的第一學期中，那些希望在經濟上支持特朗普的人可以藉給他的房地產，許可他的名字，購買他的資產，加入他的俱樂部之一或預訂酒店。

Since leaving office in 2021, Trump’s business empire expanded into the digital realm, where the products are often intangible, but the revenue streams are real and more accessible: Trump Media & Technology Group, the parent company of the Truth Social platform; World Liberty Financial, a decentralized finance protocol; and the $TRUMP meme coin.

自2021年離開辦公室以來，特朗普的商業帝國擴展到了數字領域，那裡的產品通常是無形的，但是收入流是真實的，更容易獲得的：Trump Media＆Technology Group，Truth Social Platform的母公司；世界自由金融，一項分散的財務協議；和$特朗普的模因硬幣。

It’s just a few months into his second term, but people and groups are taking full advantage of the new opportunities: Chinese blockchain entrepreneur Justin Sun’s $30 million investment in World Liberty Financial, for example, helped the venture take off and the president and his family went on to net $400 million (by comparison, Forbes estimates it took a Chinese state-owned bank about four years to route $5.4 million to Trump via its Trump Tower lease).

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt told Forbes in a statement, “President Trump is compliant with all conflict-of-interest rules, and only acts in the best interests of the American public—which is why they overwhelmingly re-elected him to this office, despite years of lies and false accusations against him and his businesses from the fake news media.”

白宮新聞秘書卡羅琳·萊維特（Karoline Leavitt）在一份聲明中對福布斯說：“特朗普總統遵守所有利益衝突的規則，只符合美國公眾的最大利益行動，這就是為什麼他們以多年的謊言和對他的企業的謊言和虛假的指控，來自假新聞媒體的謊言和虛假的指控。”

Spokespeople for the Trump Organization, Trump Media, the $TRUMP meme coin and World Liberty Financial did not respond to requests for comment.

特朗普組織，特朗普媒體，$特朗普的模因硬幣和世界自由財務的發言人沒有回應置評請求。

Trump Media: Three Different Ways To Back His Media Business

特朗普媒體：支持他的媒體業務的三種不同方法

Trump Media incorporated the month after Trump left the White House and went public in March 2024 through a merger with a blank check company. In addition to Truth Social, it runs the streaming service Truth+ and is expanding into financial services. Trump owns 115 million shares–about 52% of the company—worth $2.9 billion as of Friday’s close, held in his revocable trust. Buying shares directly from the company in a private sale would allow for the injection of large sums of cash, while open-market purchases help prop up the value of Trump’s stake. A Canadian credit union, a locality-run bank in Switzerland and a Japanese financial-services firm disclosed owning shares in Trump Media to the Securities and Exchange Commission, although the acquisitions were made prior to Trump’s inauguration. Advertising on Truth Social or Truth+ also offers ways to support the president. It doesn’t look like many big companies are taking advantage of this channel though: Trump Media reported just $821,000 in net sales for the first quarter in a filing on Friday. Its ad inventory currently appears to be dominated by the likes of MAGA retailers, conspiratorial pitches and promotions for Truth+ itself.

特朗普媒體在特朗普離開白宮並於2024年3月與一家空白支票公司合併後於公開發行。除了真理社交外，它還運行流媒體服務真相+，並正在擴展到金融服務。特朗普擁有1.15億股股票，佔該公司的52％ - 截至週五結束時，他的可撤銷信託持有29億美元。直接從公司購買股票的私人銷售將允許注入大量現金，而開放市場的購買有助於支撐特朗普的股份價值。加拿大信用合作社，瑞士的一家當地經營的銀行和一家日本金融服務公司向美國證券交易委員會披露了在特朗普媒體上擁有股票，儘管這些收購是在特朗普就職之前進行的。關於真相或真理+的廣告還提供了支持總統的方法。不過，看來許多大公司並沒有利用這一渠道：特朗普媒體在周五的文件中報告了第一季度的淨銷售額821,000美元。目前，其廣告清單似乎由Maga零售商，陰謀推銷和促銷真理+本身之類的主導。

$trump Meme Coin Generates Millions In Transaction Fees

$特朗普模因硬幣會產生數百萬美元的交易費用

Trump launched his meme coin–a cryptocurrency with no intrinsic value that’s typically based on internet jokes and hype–three days before taking office, encouraging his 100 million followers on social media to “join my very special Trump Community” and “celebrate everything we stand for: WINNING!” (The coin quickly reached a $15 billion market cap, though it has since dropped to around $2.8 billion.) CIC Digital, a Trump Organization partner behind the meme coin and another company named Fight Fight Fight retained ownership of 80% of the coins, meaning rising demand boosts the value of their holdings. The plan is to release those holdings over the next three years. The companies also collect a transaction fee of 0.1% to 10% of each trade—an arrangement that generated almost $100 million in the first two weeks, Reuters reported, citing three crypto data firms. And last month, the companies launched a contest promising a black-tie-optional dinner with Trump at his D.C.-area golf club for the top 220 holders. The announcement spiked the coin’s price by 70%, but it has since settled to around $14. More than 70% of the largest holders appear to be based outside the United States, according to crypto researcher Molly White.

特朗普推出了他的模因硬幣 - 一種加密貨幣，沒有任何內在價值，通常是基於互聯網笑話和炒作的 - 在上任之前的三天，鼓勵他在社交媒體上的1億追隨者“加入我非常特殊的特朗普社區”，並“慶祝我們代表的一切：贏得勝利！” （這枚硬幣很快達到了150億美元的市值，儘管此後已下降到約28億美元。）CIC Digital是Meme Coin背後的特朗普組織合作夥伴，另一家名為Fight Fight Fight Fight Fight Fight Fight Bight Fight Bight Bight Bight Bight Bight持有80％的硬幣的所有權，這意味著需求的上漲促進了其股份的價值。計劃是在未來三年內釋放這些持股。據路透社報導，兩家公司還收取了每筆交易的0.1％至10％的交易費，這一安排在前兩周中產生了近1億美元。上個月，兩家公司在他的DC-Area高爾夫俱樂部與特朗普一起參加了一場比賽，為前220名持有人提供了黑色領帶的晚宴。該公告使硬幣的價格提高了70％，但此後已達到14美元左右。根據加密研究員莫莉·懷特（Molly White）的說法，超過70％的最大持有人似乎位於美國以外。
