Senator Elizabeth Warren has demanded that President Donald Trump disclose his 2026 crypto earnings after a federal filing showed $1.4 billion in income from digital asset ventures during 2025. Summary Elizabeth Warren wants Trump to disclose his 2026 crypto earnings by July 23. Trump reported $1.4 billion in crypto-related income from ventures including World Liberty Financial. Democratic demands for ethics rules could complicate the CLARITY Act’s Senate vote. Warren, in a Thursday letter, asked Trump to release details covering his cryptocurrency earnings between Jan. 1 and July 15. She gave the president until July 23 to provide the information voluntarily as the Senate considers the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act. Trump’s 2025 financial disclosure, filed on June 30 under rules set by the U.S. Office of Government Ethics, listed income linked to Official Trump (TRUMP) and World Liberty Financial, his family’s crypto company. According to Warren, the filing raises concerns about elected officials shaping legislation that could affect the value of their holdings. “[Trump’s] financial disclosure raises key questions about the appropriateness of Presidents, Vice Presidents, senior administration officials, members of Congress, and their families profiting off the crypto industry, just as the US Senate debates crypto market structure legislation that has the potential to increase the value of your crypto holdings.” Warren ties disclosure demand to CLARITY vote Under current disclosure rules, Trump does not need to submit his 2026 annual report until May 2027. Warren wants the information released early because senators are working on legislation that would establish federal rules for the crypto market. In her letter, the Massachusetts Democrat argued that approving CLARITY without firm ethics rules could benefit Trump and his family financially. “[W]ithout adequate guardrails, [CLARITY] would turbocharge the President’s significant conflicts of interest and almost certainly boost the value of his and his family’s crypto holdings,” Warren wrote. Responding to similar concerns during a July 2 interview, Trump maintained that there was nothing illegal and nothing wrong with earning money from his crypto investments while serving as president. White House spokesperson Anna Kelly also rejected claims of a conflict. According to Kelly, Trump’s assets are held in discretionary accounts managed by independent third-party financial institutions, leaving the president without direct control over them. Senate ethics fight threatens the bill’s path Senate Majority Leader John Thune has said the chamber will vote on the crypto market structure bill before senators leave for their August state work period. Passage requires 60 votes, meaning Republicans will need support from several Democrats. Several Democratic senators have publicly refused to support a market structure bill without clear ethics provisions. Some lawmakers have specifically cited Trump’s crypto interests when explaining their opposition, making the dispute a potential obstacle to the legislation. While the Senate negotiates its version, the House Financial Services Committee’s digital assets subcommittee held a field hearing on CLARITY in New York City on Friday. The House passed the bill in July 2025, but any version amended and approved by the Senate would need to return to the lower chamber. House Financial Services Committee Chair French Hill described crypto market structure legislation as “a bipartisan priority” for Congress. However, no Democratic lawmakers appeared to attend Friday’s hearing. The Senate debate now places Trump’s crypto income alongside unresolved questions about federal oversight and political ethics. Warren’s July 23 deadline does not legally require the president to respond, but compliance would reveal his latest crypto earnings months before the next mandatory filing.
