Tyler runs Gemini as CEO, while Cameron is president. Forbes says the platform processes about $30 million a day in trades. That places his business in finance and investments, with cryptocurrency as the main driver.
His money story also includes long-term crypto holdings. Forbes says the twins still own an estimated 70,000 Bitcoins, plus other digital assets.

On the Forbes World's Billionaires List, he was estimated at $3 billion in 2021 and $4 billion in 2022. The next year, Forbes put him at $1.2 billion.

The estimate later moved back up and then eased again. Forbes placed him at $2.7 billion in 2024 and $3.2 billion in 2025, before listing him at $2.4 billion in 2026.
