World Liberty Financial, backed by the Trump family, plans to create a publicly traded company to hold its WLFI tokens, aiming to raise around $1.5 billion. This move follows a trend of digital-asset treasury companies, which have raised an estimated $79 billion in 2025 for Bitcoin purchases alone.
The proposed treasury firm for World Liberty would be a shell company on Nasdaq, similar to MicroStrategy’s Bitcoin strategy. MicroStrategy, now called Strategy, has amassed over $72 billion in Bitcoin and has a market cap of nearly $113 billion, inspiring other companies to follow suit with their own crypto treasuries.
Former President Trump reported earning $57.4 million from his stake in World Liberty Financial, which has raised about $550 million through public token sales. The platform, backed by high-profile investors like Justin Sun and Web3Port, aims to challenge traditional finance with its DeFi and stablecoin offerings.
