Income, crypto, and filings
L'Essentiel de l'Éco says Donald Trump’s official presidential salary is 400 000 dollars bruts annuels, “intégralement reversé à des agences fédérales,” while it also cites “802 millions de dollars en crypto en six mois” and a Forbes revaluation to 6,5 milliards de dollars en mars 2026.
“Que gagne vraiment Donald Trump”
The same source says the U.S. president’s remuneration is “fixée à400 000 dollarsbruts annuels depuis 2001” and that the Constitution (Article II, Section 1) “en interdit toute modification en cours de mandat.”

It adds that on 13 juin 2025 Trump “a déposé sa déclaration financière annuelle obligatoire” auprès de l’Office of Government Ethics, describing a 234-page document covering 2024 with 145 pages devoted to “les seuls portefeuilles d’actions et d’obligations.”
L'Essentiel de l'Éco further reports that Reuters calculated Trump’s declared assets total at least 1,6 milliard de dollars and that it lists U.S. property revenues of 378 millions de dollars bruts plus 22 millions de frais de gestion.
The source also ties Trump’s second-mandate financial shift to crypto, saying World Liberty Financial (WLFI) launched in septembre 2024 with Donald Jr., Eric and Barron Trump participation raised 550 millions de dollars in two token sales.
Fed chair and Bitcoin
TradingView’s Western Alternative reports that it is expected U.S. President Donald Trump will name Bitcoin-friendly Kevin Warsh as the next chair of the Federal Reserve on Friday, to replace Jerome Powell whose term ends in May.
The same report says Trump told on Thursday he would announce on Friday morning his choice, and it cites Bloomberg, The Wall Street Journal, and The New York Times as reporting Trump is prepared to nominate Warsh.

It also states that Reuters previously reported Trump met with Warsh on Thursday, and a person familiar with the discussion said Warsh impressed the president.
TradingView adds that Warsh has a “much more favorable view of Bitcoin (BTCUSD) than Powell,” and it quotes Warsh from a July interview with the Hoover Institution saying it could “bring discipline to the market.”
The report links market reaction to the nomination expectations, saying “The U.S. dollar strengthened and Treasury yields rose” as odds increased that Trump would choose Warsh over Rick Rieder and economist Kevin Hassett.
Inaugural themes and Hoover
Le Grand Continent reproduces Donald Trump’s inaugural address, describing it as “the longest by word count since Herbert Hoover in 1929,” and it quotes Trump saying, “The United States will once again regard itself as a nation on the rise.”
“Reports: Trump to name Bitcoin-friendly Kevin Warsh as next Fed chair on Friday”
In the same text, Trump says he will sign “a series of historic decrees” and that “we will begin the complete restoration of America and the revolution of common sense,” while also promising that “every illegal entry will be halted immediately.”
Separately, yalibnan’s West Asian piece says Trump told Marc Caputo on “The Axios Show” that he “never want[s] to be associated with Herbert Hoover,” and it quotes him: “I never want to be the late, great Herbert Hoover.”
The same yalibnan article adds that at his press conference at the G-7 in France Trump said, “I’ve studied presidents — some good, some bad, some great. … And the one president I did not want to be was the late, great Herbert Hoover.”
It frames the comparison by recalling that Trump floated in 2018 asking aides whether he could fire Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, warning that Powell’s rate hikes would “turn me into Hoover.”
