WLFI completes second set of WLFI governance token sales
World Liberty Financial, Inc. (“WLFI”), the developer of a pioneering DeFi protocol and governance platform inspired by Donald J. Trump, has made history with the completion of the second set of its token sales, totaling $550 million in gross proceeds in concurrent U.S. and non-U.S. token offerings.
After launching on October 15, 2024, WLFI has successfully concluded two sets of token sales in concurrent U.S. and non-U.S. offerings. In the first set, $300 million USD of WLFI tokens were sold between the offerings, and in the second set, $250 million USD of WLFI tokens were sold between the offerings. Between all the offerings, $550 million USD in WLFI tokens have been sold.
More than 85,000 total participants in the token sales underwent Know Your Customer (KYC) process to determine participation eligibility.
"This milestone proves that those who truly understand crypto and finance recognize what we’re building — and that WLFI is on track to supercharge DeFi as it transforms global finance in the coming years," said Zach Witkoff, WLFI co-founder. "World Liberty Financial is grateful to WLFI’s early supporters and partners who saw the game-changing potential of this project and we look forward to their continued participation in the governance of the WLFI protocol. The token sales are just the beginning. We’re gearing up to launch a wave of disruptive technology that will redefine the boundaries of what’s possible with digital assets."
Over the last six months, WLFI has established key relationships with leading blockchain protocols and institutions including Ondo Finance, Ethena, Chainlink, Sui and Aave. These relationships have positioned WLFI to more rapidly build and deploy its upcoming platform which is being purpose-built to democratize finance for millions.
WLFI’s “Macro Strategy” has also assembled a variety of digital assets in its strategic reserve program including BTC, ETH, TRX, LINK, SUI, and ONDO tokens. The WLFI strategic reserve helps strengthen leading cryptocurrency projects while providing stability to its treasury through diversification before ultimate disposition. The Macro Strategy may be used in part to enable WLFI to fund innovative projects, support ecosystem growth, and create new opportunities within the rapidly evolving DeFi landscape.
WLFI remains committed to advancing its mission to create a more inclusive financial future, backed by strategic partnerships, innovative technologies and a dedicated community.
