The new "Trump Accounts" give babies a government-funded head start in the stock market, but digital assets were explicitly left off the menu.
Key facts
- A $1,000 deposit left untouched for 18 years at that rate would grow to approximately $5,500
- At $1,000 per child invested in an S&P 500 index fund, the math gets interesting over an 18-year horizon
- By March 31, 2026, more than 4 million children had been enrolled
- The program targets US citizen children born between January 1, 2025, and December 31, 2028
Summary
The Trump administration has officially rolled out “Trump Accounts,” a program that seeds $1,000 in federal money into investment accounts for US children. The program targets US citizen children born between January 1, 2025, and December 31, 2028. The accounts function similarly to traditional retirement accounts, locked until the child turns 18. The official launch date is July 4, 2026.
