The growing footprint of World Liberty Financial
The WLFI Treasury strategy marks an important step in integrating the governance token in business financing. Inspired by Donald Trump’s vision, WLFI is a decentralized financial protocol that aims to increase access to Defi and to develop tools for broader acceptance.
The increase of $ 1.5 billion follows a series of WLFI developments in recent months, including a $ 52.1 million private token sale in July, an investment of $ 10 million in Falcon Finance and a Binance list of WLFI’s USD1 Stablecoin.
Both WLFI and the growing footprints of Alt5 show the growing intersection of traditional capital markets, decentralized finances and influence of the political brand.
