Trump crypto firm plans launch of public company that will hold family token
Briefly

World Liberty Financial, owned by the Trump family, is planning to announce a cryptocurrency treasury company that would involve a publicly traded firm holding its proprietary WLFI token and cash. The initiative aims to raise $1.5 billion, with Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr. slated to join the board. The venture is part of the family's expanding crypto portfolio, which has already seen significant sales with the WLFI token. The planned treasury company is a shell firm on NASDAQ, initiated amid a trend of digital asset treasury firms and inspired by Michael Saylor's earlier successes with Bitcoin acquisition.
