Trump’s World Liberty Financial expands token sale

The platform raised $300 million by selling 20% of its 100 billion WLFI tokens and aims to raise an additional $250 million with the new offering.

WLFI, backed by Trump, has proposed an airdrop of its USD1 stablecoin to early token holders, testing its airdrop system and increasing visibility before full-scale deployment.

World Liberty Financial, a decentralised finance platform supported by Donald Trump, has released an additional 5 billion tokens for sale following the success of its initial presale. The new tokens, priced at 5 cents each, mark a significant increase from the presale rate of 1.5 cents. The platform’s first token sale raised $300 million by selling 20% of its 100 billion WLFI tokens, and the current offering aims to raise an additional $250 million.

The surge in demand has also attracted increased investment from notable backers. Tron founder Justin Sun, who previously invested $30 million, announced an additional $45 million investment, bringing his total stake to $75 million. Despite barring US retail investors from participating, the presale drew significant interest globally, with WLFI positioned as the governance token for the platform’s future decentralised trading system.

In a move to expand its ecosystem, World Liberty Financial partnered with TRUMP, a meme coin tied to Donald Trump. The collaboration followed a volatile market debut for TRUMP, which briefly surged to $73 before falling to $41. Meanwhile, Melania Trump launched her memecoin, adding further intrigue to the platform’s strategy. As the project pushes ahead, the new token sale reflects strong market interest and ambitious growth plans.
