<h2 id="world-liberty-financial">&nbsp;World Liberty Financial</h2>
Trump <a href="https://cryptopotato.com/donald-trump-announces-launch-date-of-world-liberty-financial/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" data-wpel-link="internal">announced</a> the launch of World Liberty Financial in September.&nbsp;The project seeks to make financial services more accessible by eliminating intermediaries. Initially aiming to raise $300 million with a $1.5 billion valuation, the company has shifted focus primarily to offshore markets.
A filing with US regulators states that only $30 million in tokens will be sold domestically, and the offering will end once this threshold is met, despite leaving $288.5 million of tokens for global sale.
World Liberty Financial’s <a href="https://www.worldlibertyfinancial.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" data-wpel-link="external">website</a> states that despite Trump’s endorsement, neither he nor his family nor the Trump Organization has any role in managing, owning, or operating the platform or its affiliates. World Liberty Financial solely offers the WLFI tokens.
It also states that Trump’s affiliated entity, DT Marks DEFI LLC, is set to receive around 22.5 billion tokens and 75% of net protocol revenues under a services agreement. The project emphasizes that it is non-political and not tied to any political campaign.
