Following Strategy’s successful model
This initiative is modeled after Michael Saylor’s Strategy, which holds substantial Bitcoin assets on its balance sheet. According to Bloomberg, although the deal structure is still being finalized, significant offers have already come from key investors in the tech and crypto sectors, with negotiations progressing rapidly.

Strategy has accumulated over $75 billion in Bitcoin and reached a market cap close to $113 billion. Its success as a Bitcoin proxy stock inspired a wave of emulators, spanning diverse industries and altcoins such as Ethereum, Litecoin, and Sui.
Trump’s earnings and project backing
In June, former President Trump disclosed earning $57.4 million from his stake in World Liberty Financial. His 2025 financial disclosure shows he owns 15.75 billion WLFI governance tokens, with proceeds attributed to token sales.

World Liberty Financial has raised approximately $550 million through two public token sales. It positions itself as a DeFi and stablecoin platform aiming to disrupt traditional finance. Notable backers include Tron founder Justin Sun, who invested $30 million for 2 billion tokens, and Web3Port, which contributed $10 million in January.
Bloomberg reports that companies with crypto reserves are projected to raise $79 billion for Bitcoin purchases in 2025 alone. World Liberty Financial joins this growing movement of firms holding significant cryptocurrency on their balance sheets, reflecting increasing investor demand for digital asset exposure.
