World Liberty Financial Increases TRX Holdings to $7.5 Million with Latest Purchase
World Liberty Financial (WLFI), the cryptocurrency project supported by President Donald Trump’s family, has expanded its Tron (TRX) holdings with another significant purchase, according to on-chain data.
Justin Sun, the founder of Tron, praised the move, stating, “As a passionate supporter of blockchain and cryptocurrency innovation, I am excited to see World Liberty Financial integrate TRON as a major component of its growing treasury. TRX’s position as the fourth-largest asset in WLFI’s portfolio speaks volumes about their trust in the Tron blockchain,” he said in a statement to CoinDesk.
The latest acquisition, worth $2.6 million, added 10.8 million TRX to WLFI’s treasury, bringing their total TRX holdings to $7.5 million.
Sun also highlighted the broader implications, noting, “With WLFI at the forefront of bridging traditional finance and crypto, coupled with the Trump administration’s supportive stance on cryptocurrency, the United States is positioned to become a global leader in innovation and blockchain adoption.”
In mid-January, CoinDesk reported that WLFI planned to purchase additional TRX, and a Tron delegation attended Trump’s inauguration to show their support for the growing cryptocurrency industry.
Apart from TRX, WLFI’s portfolio includes $182 million in ETH, $48 million in WBTC, $7.2 million in Tether’s USDT, $7 million in AAVE, and $6.7 million in Chainlink’s LINK, with most of these purchases made before the inauguration.
Sources close to WLFI have indicated that the company plans to continue expanding its TRX holdings in the coming months
