World Liberty Financial has officially announced that on September 1, 2025, the first unlock for the WLFI token will occur, allowing investors who participated in the previous funding rounds to trade 20% of their allocated tokens freely.
Project Tied to the Trump Family
Since its launch in September 2024, World Liberty Financial has seen active involvement from many members of the Trump family in advisory roles. Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump frequently appear in the media as the official spokespersons for the project.
According to Bloomberg, the Trump family has earned over $620 million from the crypto industry, with nearly $400 million coming directly from World Liberty Financial.
Impressive Fundraising Achievements
The project has successfully completed two rounds of WLFI sales at prices of $0.015 and $0.05, raising a total of $550 million ($300 million and $250 million). Notably, one of the largest investors is Justin Sun, with an investment of $75 million.
Recently, ALT5 Sigma Corporation, managed by the World Liberty Financial team, announced that it has raised $1.5 billion for long-term investment in WLFI tokens, preparing for the trading phase.
Ambition to Become a “Digital Bank”
World Liberty Financial aims to become a “digital bank,” starting with the issuance of the stablecoin USD1 in partnership with Binance. Currently, USD1 has a market capitalization of $2.4 billion, recently experiencing a notable increase.
The project also plans to launch its own wallet application, with its website already integrating DeFi features using USD1, including lending and borrowing assets. The recent approval of the GENIUS Act by President Trump has provided a legal framework for stablecoins in the U.S., further facilitating this plan.

World Liberty Financial also promises to announce the list of centralized (CEX) and decentralized (DEX) exchanges that will list WLFI in the coming days.
