World Liberty Financial (WLFI), a cryptocurrency venture backed by the Trump family, is in negotiations to launch a public company aimed at raising approximately $1.5 billion.
Plans for Public Company Launch
According to sources, WLFI is in the final stages of negotiations to create a company that will hold WLFI tokens. The project is planned to be based on an already acquired publicly listed shell company on Nasdaq. Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr. are expected to join the board of directors.
History of World Liberty Financial
Founded in late 2024, the company began with a crypto-lending app and subsequently introduced the USD1 stablecoin and the WLFI token, which has already generated around $550 million in sales. With these products, World Liberty Financial aims to establish itself in the crypto market.
Future and Strategy of the Company
If the IPO deal is completed, World Liberty Financial will become one of the largest public companies focused on altcoins. This aligns with the increasing investor interest in companies holding large amounts of cryptocurrency on their balance sheets. In 2025, companies like MicroStrategy have raised approximately $79 billion for Bitcoin purchases.
The planned WLFI public company underscores the Trump family's ambitions in the cryptocurrency space and the growing investor appetite for token-based assets.
