World Liberty Financial, the Trump family’s cryptocurrency venture, has begun trading its tokens, $WLFI, on major exchanges like Binance, OKX, and Bybit. Initially sold last year without trading rights, the tokens gained approval in July to be tradable. They were last priced at $0.3115, according to CoinGecko.
Since its launch, the project has generated about $500 million for the Trump family, largely due to investor interest in the Trump name and expectations of rising value. Early investors can sell up to 20% of their holdings.
While the venture has drawn enthusiasm from the crypto market, it has also faced criticism from Democrats and ethics experts, who warn of conflicts of interest as Trump shapes cryptocurrency regulation. The White House insists his assets are held in a trust managed by his children.
