Tron DAO Adds $45M Investment in World Liberty Financial
Tron DAO has increased its investment in World Liberty Financial by $45 million, bringing its total stake to $75 million. The organization made its initial $30 million investment last year, with Tron founder Justin Sun joining the project as an advisor.
The initial pre-sale of WLFI tokens reached 20 billion units, prompting the World Liberty Financial team to release an additional 5% of token supply. This expanded the pre-sale to 25 billion units, with 800 million of the 5 billion extra tokens already sold.
Large investors continue to enter the project following Tron DAO's increased stake. According to data from Spot On Chain, whale investor convexcuck.eth acquired 323,226,263 WLFI tokens in a 24-hour period, using 1,082 ETH plus $1.39 million in USDT and USDC for the purchase.
The investment surge aligns with Donald Trump's return to office as a pro-cryptocurrency president. Trump and First Lady Melania Trump have launched their own meme coins on the Solana blockchain to engage with supporters. The broader cryptocurrency market has responded, with Google searches for "Buy Crypto" and "Buy Solana" showing notable increases.
Under Trump's administration, Tron could see easier entry into the U.S. market. Analysts discuss the possibility of a spot TRX ETF approval, which would expand the adoption of Tron's native token. The cryptocurrency sector anticipates policy changes that may create a more favorable environment for digital assets.
The combination of institutional investment from Tron DAO, individual whale activity, and the political landscape points to growing interest in World Liberty Financial. The project has gained attention in the DeFi space as digital assets and blockchain technology continue to evolve in the financial sector.
