Justin Sun seems to be seizing every opportunity that crosses his path, with his latest move making waves in the industry.
The founder of the Tron blockchain has become the largest investor in Donald Trump’s World Liberty Financial, investing $30 million in the project’s token.
On November 26th, Sun took to X and announced that he had purchased $30 million worth of its token.
Sun’s latest investment comes days after he revealed paying $6.2 million when he won Sotheby’s auction of the infamous banana, titled “Comedian,” created by Italian artist and cultural prankster Maurizio Cattelan.
Meanwhile, a World Liberty Financial spokesperson said that there have been several significant purchases in recent weeks and added that they expect more such developments to happen in the coming weeks and months. Confirming Sun’s purchase, the team behind the project tweeted,
Trump announced the launch of World Liberty Financial in September. The project seeks to make financial services more accessible by eliminating intermediaries. Initially aiming to raise $300 million with a $1.5 billion valuation, the company has shifted focus primarily to offshore markets.
A filing with US regulators states that only $30 million in tokens will be sold domestically, and the offering will end once this threshold is met, despite leaving $288.5 million of tokens for global sale.
World Liberty Financial’s website states that despite Trump’s endorsement, neither he nor his family nor the Trump Organization has any role in managing, owning, or operating the platform or its affiliates. World Liberty Financial solely offers the WLFI tokens.
It also states that Trump’s affiliated entity, DT Marks DEFI LLC, is set to receive around 22.5 billion tokens and 75% of net protocol revenues under a services agreement. The project emphasizes that it is non-political and not tied to any political campaign.
