World Liberty Financial Increases TRX Holdings to $7.5 Million in Latest Purchase
World Liberty Financial (WLFI), the crypto venture backed by President Donald Trump’s family, has made another substantial acquisition of Tron (TRX), bringing its total TRX holdings to $7.5 million, according to on-chain data.
Justin Sun, the founder of Tron, expressed his support for the move, saying, “As a dedicated advocate for blockchain technology and the future of cryptocurrencies, I am thrilled to see World Liberty Financial integrate TRON as a core asset in its expanding treasury. The decision to make TRX the fourth-largest asset in their portfolio reflects their confidence in the Tron blockchain’s potential,” Sun stated in an interview with CoinDesk.
The latest purchase, valued at $2.6 million, added 10.8 million TRX to WLFI’s holdings. This brings their total TRX investment to $7.5 million.
Sun also remarked on the broader impact of WLFI’s efforts, stating, “With WLFI taking the lead in bridging traditional finance and the world of cryptocurrency, combined with the Trump administration’s pro-crypto policies, the United States is well on its way to becoming a major hub for crypto adoption and innovation.”
Earlier this year, CoinDesk reported that WLFI intended to increase its TRX holdings, and a Tron delegation was present at Trump’s inauguration to show support for the growing cryptocurrency movement.
In addition to TRX, WLFI holds substantial investments in ETH, WBTC, Tether’s USDT, AAVE, and Chainlink’s LINK, with a total of $182 million in ETH, $48 million in WBTC, $7.2 million in USDT, $7 million in AAVE, and $6.7 million in LINK, based on the latest on-chain data.
Sources close to WLFI have indicated that the company plans to continue growing its TRX holdings, further solidifying its position in the cryptocurrency market.
