Trump-Backed WLFI Aims for $1.5B Crypto Mega-Fund—Bullish or Political Play?
WLFI—the crypto fund with Trump's stamp of approval—just set its sights on a jaw-dropping $1.5B raise. Here's why Wall Street's sweating.
The Trump Factor: Crypto's New Kingmaker?
Love him or hate him, Trump's endorsement turbocharges WLFI's credibility—or at least its headline potential. The fund’s backers are betting big that MAGA meets DeFi equals a license to print money.
$1.5B or Bust: Greed vs. Gravity
Targeting nine figures in a bear market? Bold. Targeting ten figures? Either genius or a future case study in 'peak crypto hubris.' One hedge fund manager muttered, 'At least the grift’s inflation-adjusted.'
The Bottom Line
WLFI’s moonshot could redefine crypto-political capital—or crash harder than a meme coin post-Elon tweet. Either way, grab popcorn.
World Liberty Financial, backed by the Trump family, is preparing to launch a publicly listed company to hold its WLFI tokens, aiming to raise around $1.5 billion. Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr. are set to join the board, with the family holding a 60% equity stake. The deal structure is still being finalized, and the company is in talks with leading tech and crypto investors. This marks a bold move into digital assets amid growing market and regulatory attention.
