WLFI Team: The project began after the presidential family’s bank accounts were frozen This video is from Colin Wu’s exclusive interview with World Liberty (WLFI) co-founders Zak Folkman and Zach Witkoff on his podcast. Please do not repost without permission; infringement will be pursued. In the podcast, Zach Witkoff discussed the background of the project’s creation. He mentioned that about two years ago, during a meeting with Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump, both were feeling down because their accounts had been frozen by two major U.S. banking institutions, which also refused to provide services. The solution they explored focused on building a democratized system around stablecoins — with stablecoins, user accounts cannot be arbitrarily closed (unless listed on relevant sanction lists) and are not subject to restrictions on fund transfers. This idea became the origin of the World Liberty project, aiming to return financial control to the people. Video source: https://youtu.be/MukNfzONu18?si=Wk0rhp6aJyYCwaFz
