Former President Donald Trump released a video on August 29 via X, announcing his support for the DeFi project "World Liberty." In the video, Trump declared, "Today I have made a plan to make the United States the crypto capital of the planet. Those people want to strangle you and bankrupt you, and we will never let that happen."

This announcement follows a previous report from BlockBeats on August 26, which highlighted the renaming of the Telegram channel "The DeFiant Ones," operated by Trump Jr., to "World Liberty Financial." The move underscores the Trump family's growing involvement in the cryptocurrency space, with ambitions to position the United States at the forefront of the global crypto economy.
