Trump-backed World Liberty Financial’s portfolio down $110M in unrealized losses 

World Liberty Financial, the cryptocurrency investment platform backed by U.S. President Donald Trump, has seen its portfolio drop by $110 million in unrealized losses. 

According to data from Arkham Intelligence, WLFI’s investment of $336 million across nine cryptocurrencies is now worth approximately $226 million. Of the portfolio’s losses, Ethereum (ETH) is responsible for 65%.

Ethereum is trading at around $2,000 as at Mar. 10, meaning that WLFI, which bought it at an average price of $3,240,  is down an estimated $80.85 million, or almost 37% of its total investment.

Tron (TRX) has proven to be the most resilient of WLFI’s holdings, down just 5%. The portfolio’s other holdings, which have all contributed to the WLFI’s losses, include tokens such as stETH ($10.27M), WHITE ($5.87M), Movement (MOVE) ($3.5M), and Ondo (ONDO) ($296,000).

Despite these losses, WLFI continues to boost its portfolio and expand its network. On Mar. 6, WLFI acquired $21.5 million worth of Ethereum, Wrapped Bitcoin (WBTC) and Movement Network tokens. In addition, the company recently partnered with Sui (SUI), a blockchain founded by former Meta programmers, to explore decentralized finance opportunities.

The partnership has drawn speculations as some believe it is an attempt to expand into other blockchain ecosystems, while others wonder what the real reasons for the partnership are.

Founded in 2024, WLFI has managed to position itself as a major player in DeFi. Trump, along with his close family and allies, controls more than 60% of the project. Despite recent losses, WLFI attracted strong investor interest, raising $300 million during its January 2025 token sale.

Meanwhile, as Trump’s government works to establish a strategic crypto reserve for the United States, critics argue that his growing influence in the cryptocurrency markets may lead to conflicts of interest.

The Trump Organization has denied any wrongdoing, claiming that his children, an outside ethics lawyer, and an independent investment firm run WLFI and that Trump has no direct control over its activities.
