Trump’s World Liberty Financial Slams Bloomberg Report Over Alleged Binance Stablecoin

Published by

A recent Bloomberg report claimed that World Liberty Financial (WLFI), a blockchain project linked to the Trump family, was in talks with Binance to launch a U.S. dollar-backed stablecoin. It also alleged that Binance co-founder Changpeng Zhao met WLFI co-founder Steve Witkoff at the Bitcoin MENA 2024 conference in Abu Dhabi.

The report quickly made waves in the crypto community, sparking speculation about WLFI’s potential partnership with Binance. But WLFI wasted no time shutting down the claims – taking to X to issue a fiery response, calling the report “politically motivated.”

So, what’s really going on here? Is this just another media vs. crypto clash, or is there more to the story? Let’s break it down.

WLFI Rejects Media Allegations

WLFI criticized major media outlets for what it called misleading reports about its business activities. It accused sections of the media of trying to damage the reputation of the cryptocurrency industry and suggested that the coverage was agenda-driven.

The project specifically called out Bloomberg and The Wall Street Journal for publishing what it described as unverified claims.

However, it did not mention which report triggered its response, nor did it reference Binance anywhere in its statement.

A Vague but Firm Response

Although WLFI avoided directly addressing the allegations, it highlighted its partnerships with leading blockchain projects. The post ended by advising followers to ignore “clickbait” and rely only on official WLFI updates for accurate information.

WLFI’s Market Position and Performance

WLFI is a DeFi project associated with U.S. President Donald Trump and his family. It has a market cap of $78.9 million and holds assets like Ethereum, Tether, USDC, TRON, Wrapped Bitcoin, Chainlink, Ondo, Aave, Ethena, Movement, Sei, and more.

According to Arkham Intelligence, WLFI’s market cap has risen by 1.7% in the last 24 hours. In the same period, ETH gained 2%, WBTC 2.9%, LINK 5%, ONDO 4.3%, AAVE 6.8%, ENA 6.8%, MOVE 5.8%, and SEI 4.4%.

While WLFI insists the reports are false, Bloomberg stands by its claims, fueling the debate over media narratives and political influences in crypto.

Truth or spin? You decide.
