Trump-Linked WLF Set to Build Crypto Reserve As U.S. Eyes Digital Dominance

Story Highlights
  • Trump Jr. calls crypto key to U.S. dominance, backing World Liberty Financialโ€™s crypto reserve.

  • WLF is building a crypto reserve, investing in ONDO, Ethereum, Bitcoin, and other assets.

  • Trumpโ€™s crypto ties deepen as WLF moves toward a stronger role in digital finance.

World Liberty Financial (WLF), a DeFi project linked to Donald Trumpโ€™s 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 Americaโ€™s future power.

Trump Jr. Talks Crypto

At the summit, Trump Jr. called cryptocurrency the โ€œfuture 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 cryptoโ€™s growing influence and how it could reshape global finance.

WLFโ€™s 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 ONDOโ€”the 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 companyโ€™s vision for its crypto reserve but didnโ€™t 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 Trumpโ€™s presidential campaign. Earlier this year, Trump signed an executive action to explore the possibility of such a reserve, raising speculation that WLFโ€™s 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.

Whatโ€™s 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 familyโ€™s increasing involvement in the crypto world.
