Justin Sun invests $30 million in World Liberty Financial by buying its native token WLFI
Trump and his sons, Donald Jr. and Eric Trump, unveiled the crypto venture in September through a live stream on X. The DeFi platform has its token WLFI, which is currently on presale. The presale began on October 15th with more than 100,000 U.S. accredited investors.

According to Sun, the purchase made him the largest investor of World Liberty Financial.
