The era of Donald Trump's presidency began with a large-scale cryptocurrency acquisition by World Liberty Financial (WLFI), a platform linked to his family. These purchases underscore the project's strategic expansion into digital assets.
Significant Crypto Purchases
On January 20, 2025, the day of Donald Trump's inauguration, World Liberty Financial acquired approximately $112.8 million in cryptocurrencies. Among the biggest purchases were $47 million in Ether (ETH) and Wrapped Bitcoin (wBTC). The project also added $4.7 million each in Aave (AAVE), Chainlink (LINK), TRON (TRX), and ENA tokens, seen as a strategic diversification of its assets.
A Growing Portfolio with Strategic Token Sales
Amid recent acquisitions, WLFI completed the sale of 20% of its token supply, raising $254 million since October 2024. The project plans to continue this momentum by selling an additional 5 billion WLFI tokens, representing 5% of the total supply, for further growth in 2025.
Increased Stake by TRON DAO
In addition to World Liberty Financial's purchases, TRON DAO, led by Justin Sun, increased its stake in the project. The organization invested an additional $45 million, acquiring 1 billion WLFI tokens, bringing its total holdings to approximately $75 million.
These major acquisitions and investments highlight World Liberty Financial's ambition to strengthen its position in the decentralized finance ecosystem, laying the groundwork for future growth and asset diversification.
