$5 million in Coinbase shares held by National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett
Kevin Hassett's 2025 annual disclosure lists a vested investment between $1 million and $5 million in Coinbase, while he serves as a key advisor to President Donald Trump's digital asset policy group.
National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett holds between $1 million and $5 million worth of shares in crypto exchange Coinbase. His 2025 annual financial disclosure, recently released, lists the investment as vested shares. The document indicates that as a former advisor to the company, Hassett had not fully divested from his holdings eleven months into President Donald Trump's second term. While the filing covers activities through the end of 2025, it does not confirm whether he still retains these shares at this moment. Three days after assuming office in 2025, President Donald Trump established a White House Working Group on Digital Asset Markets. This group included Hassett or a designee as a member under an executive order. Chaired by David Sacks, the committee is tasked with proposing regulatory changes to digital-asset markets and taxation. The administration has already reversed Biden-era policies, created a government bitcoin reserve, and pushed for federal regulation.
