The Trump-backed DeFi project continues aggressive investments in crypto, staking Ethereum and building a strategic token reserve.
World Liberty Financial Invests in Crypto Assets
World Liberty Financial, the decentralized finance (DeFi) project endorsed by U.S. President Donald Trump, has significantly expanded its crypto holdings. Since late 2024, the project has invested over $315 million into digital assets, including wrapped Bitcoin (WBTC), Ethereum (ETH), and various altcoins.
Recent Acquisitions in WBTC and MOVE Tokens
In early February, World Liberty Financial spent $5 million in USDC to purchase 52 wrapped BTC and invested another $1.4 million in acquiring 2.52 million MOVE tokens, the native asset of Movement Labs. The transactions reflect the project’s ongoing strategy to strengthen its position in the DeFi ecosystem. Today, World Liberty Fi’s wallet sent $25 million USDC for $10 million Ethereum, $10 million WBTC, and $5 million MOVE.
Ethereum Staking and Lending Expansion
Beyond asset purchases, World Liberty Financial has actively staked Ethereum and engaged in DeFi lending protocols. The project staked 2,221 ETH, worth approximately $5.9 million, through Lido Finance and deposited an additional $5 million in USDC into Aave’s lending platform. These moves reinforce its strategy to maximize yield while diversifying its portfolio.
Building a Strategic Token Reserve
The project has also announced the formation of Macro Strategy, a dedicated token reserve designed to diversify funds, reduce risk, and establish a strong financial foundation for future growth. World Liberty Financial aims to collaborate with traditional financial institutions to integrate tokenized assets into this reserve.
World Liberty’s Growth and Market Influence
Since November 2024, World Liberty has acquired 63,030 ETH at an average price of $3,331 and 699 wrapped BTC at an average of $105,197. It has also made substantial investments in TRX, LINK, AAVE, and ENA. These purchases highlight the project’s aggressive approach to asset accumulation and long-term market positioning.
Ongoing Developments and Community Involvement
World Liberty Financial remains an influential force in the crypto sector. Its native WLFI token, which grants governance rights, has seen strong demand, with over 96% of its supply already sold. As the project continues its expansion, it seeks to bridge the gap between decentralized finance and traditional institutions.
