Trump Discloses Up to $100,000 Strategy Stock Purchase in Ethics Filing

A US Office of Government Ethics filing released Tuesday shows President Donald Trump bought $50,001 to $100,000 of Strategy shares on July 27. Three days earlier he made a smaller buy of $1,001 to $15,000. Strategy is the largest publicly traded corporate Bitcoin holder, with 846,000 BTC. The July purchase matched his biggest earlier Strategy trade, made Feb. 12. Because filings list value ranges, they don’t show how many shares he still holds.

Other Trades in the Filing

Trump also reported buying Coinbase stock and selling MARA Holdings and CleanSpark shares. He sold $5 million to $25 million each of Microsoft and Amazon on July 20. The White House says third-party institutions manage his portfolio independently. Strategy shares are up nearly 30% in five trading days and about 37% in a month.

Trump Crypto Policy Push in 2026

The Senate failed to advance the CLARITY Act on Sept. 15. Two days later, the SEC cleared limited onchain trading of tokenized US stocks, and the CFTC eased registration rules for some software providers. The CFTC also sent a crypto rulemaking plan for White House review on Sept. 17.

Last week, the House Financial Services Committee voted 28-21 to advance a bill codifying the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, with a 20-year holding requirement.
