Trump Jr. calls crypto key to U.S. dominance, backing World Liberty Financialโs crypto reserve.
WLF is building a crypto reserve, investing in ONDO, Ethereum, Bitcoin, and other assets.
Trumpโs crypto ties deepen as WLF moves toward a stronger role in digital finance.
World Liberty Financial (WLF), a DeFi project linked to Donald Trumpโs family, is making big moves in crypto. The company has announced plans to build a large cryptocurrency reserve, sparking speculation about its future plans.
This news was revealed at the Ondo Summit in New York, where Donald Trump Jr. made a surprise appearance and strongly backed crypto, calling it key to Americaโs future power.
Trump Jr. Talks Crypto
At the summit, Trump Jr. called cryptocurrency the โfuture of American hegemony,โ stressing that digital assets will play a major role in keeping the U.S. economy strong. Speaking to industry leaders, he highlighted cryptoโs growing influence and how it could reshape global finance.
WLFโs Expanding Crypto Portfolio
WLF has been quietly building its crypto holdings, recently purchasing $470,000 worth of ONDO, the native token of Ondo Finance. But its investments go beyond ONDOโthe company has also acquired Ethereum (ETH), wrapped Bitcoin (wBTC), Tron (TRX), AAVE, and Chainlink (LINK), showing interest in major blockchain projects.
WLF co-founder Chase Herro shared the companyโs vision for its crypto reserve but didnโt reveal its exact purpose. He did, however, confirm that WLF is committed to supporting blockchain innovation and remains optimistic about digital assets.
There’s a Clear Political Connection
The idea of a crypto reserve may have been discussed since Trumpโs presidential campaign. Earlier this year, Trump signed an executive action to explore the possibility of such a reserve, raising speculation that WLFโs moves could tie into national crypto policies.
Crypto Industry Meets Government
The Ondo Summit brought together key figures from both the crypto industry and government. Attendees included House Financial Services Committee Chair Patrick McHenry and acting Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) Chair Caroline Pham.
Talks focused on tokenization, regulation, and the challenges of integrating digital assets into mainstream finance.
Whatโs Next for WLF?
Although WLF presents itself as a DeFi lending platform, it has yet to launch operations. For now, its growing crypto portfolio raises questions about its long-term strategy and the Trump familyโs increasing involvement in the crypto world.
