ALT5 Sigma Corporation has completed a $1.5 billion funding round led by World Liberty Financial to launch a corporate treasury strategy centered on WLFI tokens.
Funding Closure
ALT5 Sigma closed a $1.5 billion funding round through a registered direct offering and concurrent private placement, both priced at $7.50 per share. Major institutional investors and crypto venture capital firms participated in this round.
Leadership Changes
The funding brought significant leadership changes. WLFI co-founder and CEO Zach Witkoff was named chairman of ALT5’s board, while Eric Trump joined as a director. WLFI co-founder and COO Zak Folkman will serve as board observer, and Matt Morgan has been appointed chief investment officer.
WLFI Strategy
The WLFI treasury strategy marks a significant step in integrating the governance token into corporate finance. Inspired by Donald Trump's vision, WLFI aims to increase access to DeFi and develop tools for wider adoption. The funding round follows several significant WLFI developments, including a $52.1 million private token sale and investments in Falcon Finance.
Both WLFI and ALT5 demonstrate the growing intersection of traditional capital markets, decentralized finance, and political brand influence.
