U.S. President Donald Trump Secretly Expands His Bitcoin Investments With Stake in Major Bitcoin Company

U.S. President Donald Trump and his family are widely known for their support of cryptocurrencies and active involvement in the crypto industry.

The Trump family has its own altcoin and DeFi-related projects while also investing heavily in other cryptocurrency assets.

Although Trump already maintains a diversified crypto portfolio, he has now added new assets to it.

Trump Invested in MARA Holdings

According to filings from the U.S. Office of Government Ethics (OGE), Donald Trump purchased shares of MARA Holdings, a Bitcoin mining company, during the first quarter of 2026.

The value of the purchase was reported to be between $15,001 and $50,000.

MARA shares closed at $13.29 on May 14, gaining 4.24% compared to the previous trading session.

Trump Conducted Hundreds of Millions in Securities Trades

According to recently disclosed filings, Trump conducted large-scale securities transactions during the same period totaling between $220 million and $750 million.

The transactions involved major U.S. companies including:

• Microsoft
• Meta
• Oracle
• Broadcom
• Goldman Sachs
• Bank of America

The filings also referenced S&P 500 index funds as well as investments tied to NVIDIA and Apple.

Democrats Continue Criticizing Trump’s Crypto Activities

As is widely known, Donald Trump and the cryptocurrency projects associated with his family have faced strong criticism from U.S. Democrats.

In this context, following renewed focus on stablecoins, attention has shifted toward the so-called “ethics provision” included in the CLARITY Act, which was approved by a Senate committee yesterday.

Some Democratic lawmakers questioned Trump’s ties to his family’s cryptocurrency businesses and called for additional safeguards to prevent potential conflicts of interest.
