World Liberty Financial, a DeFi platform linked to Donald Trump, made major cryptocurrency investments, highlighting confidence in digital assets.
Significant Crypto Purchases
World Liberty Financial purchased approximately $112.8 million worth of cryptocurrencies on January 20, 2025, marking President Trump’s inauguration. According to posts on the platform's X (formerly Twitter) account, the DeFi project added six different tokens to its treasury, with the most notable acquisitions being $47 million worth of Ether (ETH) and Wrapped Bitcoin (WBTC). Additionally, the project added $4.7 million each in Aave (AAVE), Chainlink (LINK), TRON (TRX), and ENA tokens. These purchases are seen as a strategic diversification of World Liberty’s holdings, positioning the project to take advantage of emerging trends in the crypto market.
A Growing Portfolio with Strategic Token Sales
Amid the recent acquisitions, WLFI completed the sale of 20% of its token supply, totaling $254 million raised since October 2024. The project plans to sell an additional 5 billion WLFI tokens, representing 5% of its total supply, to continue its momentum in 2025. In addition to World Liberty Financial’s purchases, TRON DAO has increased its stake in the project. The organization, led by Justin Sun, invested an additional $45 million, acquiring 1 billion WLFI tokens. This brought its total holdings to approximately $75 million.
World Liberty Financial's purchases underscore their strategy in diversification and strengthening market position, also reflecting their close ties with TRON DAO.
