Donald Trump’s World Liberty Financial (WLF) has made a major investment in the crypto market, acquiring $10 million worth of WLFI tokens and $125,000 in SEI tokens, reinforcing its Macro Strategy to dominate the decentralized finance sector.

A Strategic Investment Move

On February 20, 2025, WLF withdrew $10 million USDC from Coinbase to purchase 200 million WLFI tokens and spent an additional $125,000 USDC on 547,990 SEI tokens at an average price of $0.228 per token.

This transaction aligns with WLF’s Macro Strategy, a strategic token reserve aimed at:

• Strengthening WLF’s role in decentralized finance (DeFi)
• Supporting major cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH)
• Promoting broader crypto adoption

Despite these objectives, critics argue that WLF’s activities primarily benefit Trump and his allies, who hold 60% of WLF and control 75% of its revenues and 22.5 billion WLFI tokens.

Justin Sun’s Role in WLF’s Growth

A key figure in WLF’s expansion is Tron blockchain founder Justin Sun, who has invested at least $75 million in WLFI. Sun’s involvement has raised concerns due to previous allegations linking Tron to illicit financial activities.

WLF has been offering strategic deals to crypto projects in exchange for WLFI token purchases, a move that has helped it exceed its financial targets.

WLFI’s Market Performance

According to BitMart Research, as of February 9, 2025, WLF has successfully:

• Sold $455 million worth of WLFI tokens
• Raised $319 million from the sale of 21.3 billion WLFI tokens at $0.015 per token

• Generated $136 million in a second funding round by selling WLFI at $0.05 per token

With this latest $10 million investment, WLF continues to expand its footprint in the crypto industry, solidifying WLFI’s status as one of the most significant token launches in recent years.
