Trump-Linked World Liberty Financial Loses $100M+

In Summary

  • WLFI’s crypto portfolio drops by $110M due to market downturn.
  • Ethereum holdings plummet 65%, from $3,240 to $2,100.
  • Firm continues aggressive crypto investments despite losses.
  • Analysts cite regulations, economy, and trade tensions as key risks.


Catenaa, Wednesday, March 19, 2025 – World Liberty Financial Inc. (WLFI), a cryptocurrency venture connected to former President Donald Trump, has reported a significant drop of approximately $110 million in its digital asset portfolio. The loss stems from a broader market downturn, with WLFI’s holdings shrinking from $336 million to $226 million. 

The firm’s Ethereum (ETH) investments took the hardest hit, as the cryptocurrency’s value fell from $3,240 per token to around $2,100.

Other assets, including Tron (TRX) and WHITE tokens, also faced significant losses. Despite these unrealized losses, WLFI has maintained its strategy of large-scale crypto acquisitions, including $21.5 million in new investments earlier this month. 

The losses have sparked concerns over the sustainability of WLFI’s high-risk approach, which involves aggressive purchases of digital assets during politically charged moments.

Market analysts point to a combination of regulatory scrutiny, economic uncertainties, and global trade tensions as contributing factors to the downturn in both traditional and crypto markets. 

As global trade tensions escalate, including the U.S.’s 25% tariffs on Canadian and Mexican imports, critics question whether WLFI’s volatile performance could serve as a warning for U.S. plans to establish a strategic national crypto reserve. 

These challenges come amid a broader trend of liquidations in the cryptocurrency sector, which saw over $450 million in crypto positions wiped out in the past 24 hours alone.
