The service DropsTab has compiled a dashboard with WLF’s portfolio. According to the platform, the organization holds digital assets totaling nearly $74 million.
Nansen analyst Nikolai Sondergaard suggested in an interview with Bloomberg that such activity is driven by “an attempt to gain additional trust or ‘boost the project’.”
To date, the team has realized less than a quarter of the $300 million in WLFI offered for sale.
On December 13, Aave DAO approved World Liberty’s proposal to deploy a fork of the protocol.
WLF intends to enable borrowing and lending in Ethereum, WBTC, USDC, and USDT. The platform will allocate 20% of the fees and 7% of the WLFI issuance, amounting to $21 million at a price of $0.0015, to AaveDAO.
In September, Trump’s sons introduced World Liberty Financial and announced the upcoming WLFI token sale. By the end of the month, verification was opened on the official website.
Fundraising began in mid-October.
The Trump-associated organization DT Marks DEFI claims 75% of the net income from World Liberty Financial.
