Trump Declares Crypto Most Important, Boosts Trump Linked WLFI

U.S. President Donald Trump has made waves again, calling Bitcoin and crypto “much more important than any other industry.” This bold statement comes as his family’s crypto project, World Liberty Financial (WLFI), secures a huge $100 million investment.

Trump Family Goes All In on Crypto

Trump and his family are not just talking about crypto, they’re investing in it too. According to a recent government filing dated June 13, Trump earned about $57 million from World Liberty Financial project , mostly from token sales. That’s a serious payday and shows how involved the president is in the project.

Interestingly, the family has reduced their stake in it by 20% since 2024. This may be a strategy to bring in more outside investors or simply part of a financial move. Either way, their overall commitment hasn’t changed.

Eric Trump recently claimed that this is on the way to become a top 10 crypto project, showing just how confident they are in its future. The current market cap of $WLFI is $2.2 Billion.

WLFI Partners with Re7, Euler Finance, and Lista

To help build on this momentum, the project is teaming up with Re7, a hedge fund based in London. Together, they’re launching a USD1 stablecoin vault on Euler Finance and Lista, two well-known DeFi platforms. Lista is supported by Binance Labs, the venture capital wing of Binance, one of the biggest crypto exchanges in the world.

The vault will help people earn from stablecoins while keeping their assets safe. This partnership is also part of its larger plan to bring USD1 into global payment systems and reach new markets across South America, Europe, and Asia.

Aqua 1 Invests $100 Million into WLFI

It got a major boost this week after Aqua 1, a fund based in the UAE, purchased $100 million worth of WLFI’s governance tokens. These tokens offer major control of the project’s development and future decisions to them.

This investment depicts growing interest from global institutions. The money will assist the project to grow its USD1 stablecoin, and expand across different blockchain platforms, especially the BNB Chain.

BlockRock: WLFI’s Alternative to BlackRock?

WLFI and Aqua 1 are also set to roll out BlockRock, a new platform that deals in tokenizing real-world assets such as real estate, bonds, and stock. This involves converting these assets into blockchain tokens that are easier to trade.

The goal is ambitious: The project is looking to get BlockRock competing with other big financial institutions like BlackRock and Franklin Templeton, who already look after trillions of dollars in conventional markets. With blockchain technology, World Liberty Financial believes it can provide quicker, cheaper, and more transparent methods for investing in the same kinds of assets.

The tokenization of real-world assets was estimated to be worth more than $16 trillion, so this may create huge opportunities for both its investors and WLFI.

Final Thoughts

With Trump strongly backing Bitcoin and Crypto and with the recent win that WLFI has achieved, it goes without saying that the world of crypto is experiencing a new era. The blockchain technology is now supported by big funds and even political strength. It might become one of the most significant crypto projects to monitor in 2025 with new financial support, strategic connections with the international partners, and ambitious development strategies.
