As a seasoned crypto investor with a keen eye for unconventional opportunities, I find Justin Sun’s latest investment in World Liberty Financial (WLFI) intriguing. Having witnessed the rise and fall of numerous blockchain projects, I can appreciate the potential boost that Sun’s $30 million injection could provide to this fledgling DeFi platform.
Justin Sun, the creator of Tron, recently put $30 million into World Liberty Financial (WLFI), a decentralized finance (DeFi) system that is endorsed by former U.S. President Donald Trump.
In spite of Donald Trump’s endorsement, the platform faced difficulties in drawing investors, with significantly lower sales of WLFI tokens compared to initial projections. Yet, Sun’s investment might provide a much-needed lift for the project.
A Much-Needed Boost for Trump’s World Liberty Financial (WLFI)?
In September 2024, World Liberty Financial commenced operations, providing a decentralized platform for both borrowing and lending services. The management of this platform is regulated by the WLFI token. Initially, the WLFI token was made available for purchase, with the exception to US citizens who are not accredited investors.
Despite the token being non-tradeable and only accessible to a few, it led to sluggish sales. Prior to Sun’s investment, the project had managed to gather only $21 million, which is significantly lower than its goal of $300 million.
In the role of a blockchain analyst, I can confirm that I observed a significant transaction earlier today, specifically on November 25th. The transaction in question involved the purchase of approximately $30 million worth of WLFI tokens, according to data sourced from Etherscan. Interestingly, this transaction appears to have originated from a digital wallet associated with Sun, who is known for his involvement with HTX (previously known as Huobi).
Justin Sun recently stated on a platform similar to Twitter that the U.S. is rapidly evolving into a major hub for blockchain technology, a development he attributes to President Trump. He also emphasized that TRON is dedicated to driving innovation and making America great in this new technological landscape.
The WLFI “gold document” points out that some funds raised from the token sale will be directed towards a firm co-owned by Donald Trump.
From my analysis, it’s important to note that Trump’s company wouldn’t start generating profits until we surpass the $30 million mark in sales – a threshold crossed following Sun’s investment.
World Liberty Financial boasts a diverse leadership team consisting of Trump allies, innovators in the cryptocurrency sphere, and seasoned financial professionals. Notably, it enjoys the endorsement of Donald Trump and his three sons, thereby strengthening its association with the well-known Trump brand.
It’s a pleasure to have the backing of both @justinsuntron and @trondao! With their support, we’re pushing forward with innovation, sharing a common vision for a robust blockchain future, and adding to the thriving ecosystem. Brilliant times are coming our way!

In another unusual step for Justin Sun, his recent investment in World Liberity Financial adds to the diversity of his holdings. Just last week, he spent $6.2 million on the viral artwork titled “Comedian,” which is simply a banana stuck to a wall with duct tape.
The purchase caused a ripple effect in crypto markets, driving up the price of the Banana Gun token by 16%. The token, however, doesn’t have any link to the art.
Previously this year, Sun transferred his EIGEN tokens from the EigenLayer staking protocol under HTX exchange. His daring financial moves have been a subject of interest in not only the crypto world but also the art community.
