⚖️ Warren asks Trump to disclose crypto income for 2026
Senator Elizabeth Warren has sent a request for the disclosure of Donald Trump's crypto income for 2026—before the official deadline in 2027. The reason is a Senate vote on a crypto bill expected in the coming days.
According to financial disclosures, in 2025 Trump earned $1.4 billion from crypto assets. Warren is requesting similar data for the period from January through July 2026, citing a conflict of interest: the president personally benefits from an industry whose regulation is currently being debated in Congress. $ETH $AAVE $SOL
