World Liberty Financial Expands Crypto Holdings Amid Policy Moves
According to Bloomberg, World Liberty Financial, a DeFi project co-founded by Chase Herro and linked to former President Donald Trump, is expanding its cryptocurrency holdings.
| Key Takeaways: – World Liberty Financial, co-founded by Chase Herro, aims to create a “strategic reserve” with purchased tokens. – Donald Trump Jr. spoke at the Ondo Finance summit, reinforcing his father’s backing of digital assets. |
Herro announced plans to establish a “strategic reserve” using purchased tokens, though specific objectives remain unclear.
Herro spoke at the Ondo Finance summit in New York, where he was introduced by Donald Trump Jr. The panel also featured World Liberty Financial co-founders Zak Folkman and Zach Witkoff. Witkoff, the son of Trump ally Steve Witkoff, has since been selected as Trump’s Middle East envoy.
The initiative comes as digital asset reserves gain political traction. Trump previously pledged to explore the concept during his campaign and signed an executive order last month directing a review of a digital asset stockpile.
Earlier in the week, World Liberty Financial acquired tens of millions of dollars worth of Ether following a sharp market downturn triggered by U.S. tariff measures against Mexico and Canada. While marketed as a DeFi lending platform, the project has yet to become operational and is primarily known for acquiring niche digital assets.
