UAE company invests $100M in Trump family-backed crypto business
The reported business deal would make the “Web3-native fund” one of World Liberty Financial’s biggest tokenholders, with more than Tron founder Justin Sun.
World Liberty Financial, the cryptocurrency company backed by US President Donald Trump and his family, has reported that a United Arab Emirates-based company purchased $100 million worth of the platform’s governance token, WLFI.
In a Thursday notice, World Liberty and Aqua1 Foundation — self-described as a “Web3-native fund” — said the $100-million deal was “intended to help accelerate the creation of a blockchain-powered financial ecosystem centered on blockchain development, Real World Asset (RWA) tokenization, and stablecoin integration, aiming to set new benchmarks for global capital efficiency.”
The purchase makes Aqua1 a bigger WLFI tokenholder than Tron founder Justin Sun, who invested $30 million in the project in November.
