Trump-Linked World Liberty Fi Buys $775K in SEI Tokens, Market Reacts

A crypto move linked to the Trump family is turning heads – and it’s already shaking up the market. World Liberty Fi, a project connected to U.S. President Donald Trump’s circle, has just invested $775,000 in SEI tokens. The news has sparked a buzz among crypto watchers, especially as SEI’s price saw a sharp jump soon after.

In the last 24 hours, the token’s price jumped by 7.8%. Even more impressively, it rose by 3.4% in just one hour. WLF’s investment seems to have added momentum to the market at just the right time.

So, why does this matter? Let’s break it down.

What Is World Liberty Fi?

World Liberty Fi is a project managed by the Trump family. Since Donald Trump returned to the presidency, the project has gained significant attention.

Right now, the total value of WLF’s holdings is around $101 million, with a 1.18% increase in the past 24 hours.

According to data from blockchain tracking platform Arkham, WLF’s recent SEI purchase—worth $775,000—was made using USD Coin (USDC), a popular stablecoin.

Why SEI? Understanding the Token’s Appeal

SEI is the native token of the Sei blockchain, a fast and efficient Layer 1 network designed for decentralized finance (DeFi), high-speed trading, and real-time digital exchanges. It’s known for its very fast transaction speeds, making it a strong player in the crypto space.

Why Trump-Linked Moves Matter in Crypto

With Donald Trump being one of the most powerful figures in the U.S., any financial move tied to his name naturally draws a lot of attention. The SEI community has reacted positively to WLF’s token purchase, seeing it as a strong sign of confidence in the project.

This move may also signal that World Liberty Fi is looking to position itself more seriously in the crypto world.  

SEI Price Outlook: What Analysis Says

Before this recent boost, SEI had been in a long downturn. Over the past year, its price fell by more than 75.9%. In the last 30 days, it dropped 12%, and over the last 14 days, it slipped another 14.4%.

At the start of April, SEI was priced at $0.1720. Since then, it has dropped by 4.36%, reaching a low of $0.1293 on April 7.

But on April 6, a wave of buying activity pushed the price up by over 10.5% in just one day. Even though sellers returned on April 10, they only managed a small 4.11% dip—much smaller than the gains from earlier in the week.

Looking Ahead: Will SEI Keep Gaining?

World Liberty Fi’s investment could help boost confidence in SEI, especially among big investors. If WLF continues to invest in crypto, SEI might see more demand and visibility going forward.

However, broader market trends and global economic conditions will still play a major role in where SEI goes from here. For now, this high-profile move has given the SEI market a fresh wave of energy—and many are watching to see what happens next.

SEI might’ve just gotten a much-needed jolt—and it came from a rather unexpected corner of American politics.
