Vice President JD Vance isn’t just making political waves—he’s quietly amassing a small fortune in cryptocurrency. Recent financial disclosures reveal he’s sitting on $250,000 to $500,000 worth of Bitcoin, all nestled in a Coinbase account. That’s roughly 7 BTC at current prices. Not bad for a politician who claims to understand the common man’s struggles.
But Bitcoin is just the tip of Vance’s financial iceberg. His estimated net worth ranges between $4.8 million and $11.3 million. Must be nice. The bulk of his wealth sits in a Charles Schwab account valued between $2.3 million and $7.7 million. The “Hillbilly Elegy” author clearly knows a thing or two about climbing economic ladders.
Vance loves his ETFs. His biggest position? The tech-heavy Invesco QQQ Trust, worth $1-5 million. He’s also got substantial stakes in SPY and DIA, tracking the S&P 500 and Dow Jones, respectively. His portfolio screams “establishment wealth” despite his populist messaging. His venture capital background is evident in his diverse investment strategy that includes stakes in over 120 private companies.
Vance’s millions in Wall Street index funds expose the irony behind his everyman political persona.
Individual stocks make an appearance too. Walmart shares worth about $10,700. A hefty position in Rumble valued between $115,000 and $300,000. And an oil ETF worth $50,000-$100,000. No surprise there—his anti-ESG stance isn’t just talk.
Beyond stocks, Vance owns Washington D.C. real estate worth up to $1 million and has a stake worth $500,000-$1 million in Narya Capital Fund I. He’s still earning $15,000-$50,000 annually from his memoir royalties. Write a book, kids. His pro-crypto stance is further evidenced by his contribution to the SAB 121 bill promoting cryptocurrency innovation. While Bitcoin remains his primary crypto holding, he’s investing in just one of over 21,000 cryptocurrencies that exist in today’s rapidly expanding digital asset landscape.
His debts? A mortgage and line of credit, each ranging from $250,000 to $1 million. Nothing unusual for someone in his tax bracket.
Vance’s portfolio tells a story—a venture capitalist turned politician with traditional investment instincts who’s dipped his toe into crypto. His well-diversified approach suggests he’s betting on America’s economic engine while hedging with gold and Bitcoin. Politicians say one thing. Their money often says another.
