A Big Raise for a Public Treasury Firm
World Liberty Financial, a DeFi project tied to the Trump family, is in talks to raise $1.5B from investors to create a publicly traded treasury company for its WLFI tokens. Bloomberg and Fortune report that the deal is moving quickly.
Family Ties and Governance
Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr. are set to join the board, while President Donald Trump is listed as “co-founder emeritus.” The involvement has sparked conflict-of-interest criticism.
Treasury Holdings and Token Plans
The firm has already built a diverse crypto treasury, holding $55M in ETH, $19M in wrapped BTC, $14M in TRON, and smaller amounts of EOS, Mantle, Ondo, and others. WLFI tokens are not yet tradable but will be unlocked for early investors soon, with future release schedules subject to community votes.
Stablecoin Integration
WLFI also offers the USD1 stablecoin and plans to reward its users with points. The project is positioning itself as both a token issuer and a large-scale crypto treasury player.
