Oh, the delicate dance of finance and appearances! It seems young Eric Trump won’t be gracing the board of Alt5 Sigma with his presence after all. Instead, he’s been promoted… downgraded?… to “board observer.” One can practically *feel* the weight of that title. Apparently, a little chat with Nasdaq changed things. One wonders what was said. Perhaps a gentle inquiry about… well, everything? 🤷♂️
- Alt5 Sigma, in a flurry of quiet revisions after a “helpful” conversation with Nasdaq, decided Eric Trump would be more suited to *observing* rather than directing.
- Mr. Folkman of World Liberty Financial is stepping in, pending approval – one suspects he’s much better at filling out forms.
- And because things weren’t already exciting enough, a little light money laundering and a bankruptcy dispute have joined the party! 🎉 It’s always something, isn’t it?
So, the story goes. Alt5 Sigma, in a filing that appeared almost apologetically, confessed that Trump will merely be a spectator. This came just weeks after the initial announcement proclaiming him a director as part of a $1.5 billion deal with, naturally, a Trump-linked entity. A swift change after Nasdaq gently suggested, shall we say, a reassessment.
Alt5 Sigma deal reshaped under Nasdaq rules
It appears Alt5 Sigma, realizing that perhaps a fully engaged Eric Trump was… a touch too vibrant for the Nasdaq sensibilities, opted for the passive observer role. WLFI’s Mr. Folkman, ever reliable, has been nominated in his stead. As for *which* Nasdaq rule prompted this sudden shift? A mystery, shrouded in silence. Alt5 Sigma, WLFI, and the man himself all politely declined to comment. It’s a bit like asking if the tea is hot. ☕
The LLC behind WLFI, naturally, holds a substantial chunk of the venture – 38%, along with a rather impressive pile of tokens. Which translates to roughly 75% of the proceeds. Profitable, one might say. Surprisingly so, even.
Controversies add pressure
But wait, there’s more! The filing, while busy demoting Mr. Trump, also casually dropped the bombshell that Alt5 Sigma’s Canadian subsidiary had been found guilty of money laundering in Rwanda. A mere $3.5 million was seized. Alt5 Sigma claims to have only *just* found out. One imagines the meeting where that was revealed was… brisk. 💨
And as if that weren’t enough, there’s a bankruptcy case involving a former CFO and some conveniently undisclosed stock options. It’s just… a lot. Honestly, one starts to suspect the company employs a full-time crisis manager.
WLFI launched in 2024 with all the fanfare one might expect from a Trump-branded venture. The token, however, has been having a bit of a wobble, currently trading at a rather modest $0.2039. But fear not! Alt5 Sigma’s own token holdings have appreciated by over $200 million. Because, clearly, irony is dead. 💀
Alt5 Sigma’s stake remains quite valuable, nearing $1.5 billion. A comforting thought, isn’t it? Perhaps they should invest in a good lawyer…and a new PR team.
