World Liberty Eyes $1.5B Token-Holding Public Firm
World Liberty Financial Plans Public Company for WLFI Tokens
World Liberty Financial, a crypto venture associated with the Trump family, is reportedly considering establishing a publicly traded company to hold its WLFI tokens. The company seeks to raise approximately $1.5 billion in capital, according to a Bloomberg report.
Details are still being finalized; however, discussions with major technology and crypto investors are reportedly progressing rapidly. This move positions World Liberty within the growing trend of digital-asset treasury companies – publicly traded firms that maintain crypto reserves.
Notably, in 2025, such companies have collectively raised an estimated $79 billion specifically for Bitcoin acquisitions.
World Liberty, which lists Donald Trump as “co-founder emeritus” on its website, launched last year with ambitions to create a crypto-lending application and currently offers USD1, a stablecoin pegged to the U.S. dollar.
Mimicking Strategy’s Bitcoin Treasury Model
Investor materials suggest that World Liberty intends to acquire a shell company already listed on the Nasdaq to serve as its treasury vehicle.
This strategy mirrors that of Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy), led by Michael Saylor, which began accumulating Bitcoin in 2020. Strategy now holds over $72 billion in Bitcoin and boasts a market capitalization nearing $113 billion.
Strategy’s success has inspired numerous companies to adopt similar approaches, including a Japanese budget hotel chain and new treasury firms focused on Ether, Litecoin, Sui, and other altcoins. Earlier this year, Trump Media reportedly purchased $2 billion in Bitcoin for its own treasury.
Trump's Reported WLFI Token Earnings
In June, Donald Trump disclosed income of $57.4 million from his stake in World Liberty Financial. His 2025 public financial disclosure revealed ownership of 15.75 billion WLFI governance tokens, with the income attributed to token sales.
World Liberty Financial has reportedly raised approximately $550 million through two public token sales. Justin Sun, founder of Tron, invested $30 million for 2 billion tokens, while Web3Port contributed $10 million in January.
