ETH price surges with World Liberty Financial purchases

World Liberty Financial (WLFI) is a Donald Trump-backed decentralized platform that launched in September with 100 billion tokens created. The crypto project announced today that it sold 20% of its token supply. WLFI also revealed that it will open up an additional block of 5% of token supply due to massive demand and overwhelming interest.

The project disclosed that the tokens can’t be sold. Instead, they will be used as the governance token for the project’s yet-to-be-launched decentralized crypto trading platform. 

Lookonchain also revealed that World Liberty Financial recently made a major purchase of 14,403 ETH worth a total of $48M USDC. The crypto project’s holdings in ETH reached 42K ETH, worth approximately $141 million at current prices.

Although the crypto project has not disclosed the specific reasons for ETH acquisition, the price of ETH has soared in the meantime. Data from CoinMarketCap showed that Ethereum was trading at $3,356 which is a 4% increase from the previous day.

Eric Trump, Donald Trump’s son and advisor to World Liberty, suggested further developments to the crypto project. He reposted the news about WLF’s ETH purchases and wrote, “Wait until you see what they do tomorrow.”

Tron founder Justin Sun is the project’s advisor and largest investor with a $30 million token purchase in November. Sun revealed yesterday that he will invest “an additional $45 million” into World Liberty, bringing his total investment to $75 million. The crypto entrepreneur just purchased $15M USDT to acquire $1B WLFI.

The crypto project also purchased four Ethereum Name Service domains on January 19 just before Trum’s inauguration. The ENS domains were worldliberty.eth, trumpcoin.eth, erictrump.eth, and barrontrump.eth.
