The largest positions include Ethereum (ETH), Wrapped Bitcoin (WBTC), and Tron (TRX), alongside assets like Chainlink (LINK), Aave (AAVE), Ondo (ONDO), and Sei (SEI).

Donald Trump’s World Liberty Financial (WLFI) is making waves in the crypto market with a massive investment in digital assets. The fund has poured $336 million into nine cryptocurrencies, according to EmberCN. However, most of these assets were transferred to Coinbase Prime by WLFI a few weeks ago. 

Let’s break down which cryptocurrencies WLFI owns, how much it holds, and what this means for the broader market.

Trump’s Crypto Fund: A $336 Million Bet on Digital Assets

WLFI, backed by the Trump family, has quietly built a diverse crypto portfolio. According to on-chain data, the fund holds:

  • Ethereum (ETH)
  • Wrapped Bitcoin (WBTC)
  • Tron (TRX)
  • Chainlink (LINK)
  • Aave (AAVE)
  • Ethena (ENA)
  • Movement (MOVE)
  • Ondo (ONDO)
  • Sei (SEI)

This strategic mix includes layer-1 blockchains, DeFi platforms, and liquidity tokens, highlighting a broad investment thesis.

A New $21.5 Million Crypto Purchase

On March 6, WLFI executed another major crypto buy, acquiring $21.5 million worth of:

  • 4,468 ETH for $10 million ($2,238 per ETH)
  • 110.6 WBTC for $10 million ($90,420 per BTC)
  • 3.42 million MOVE tokens for $1.5 million ($0.439 per MOVE)

These purchases were made using USDC from a multi-signature wallet, with $3.5 million still unspent.

How Much Crypto Does WLFI Hold Now?

As of March 6, data from Arkham Intelligence shows WLFI wallet’s total holdings at $80.14 million, with significant positions in:

  • 7,091 ETH – valued at $16.31 million
  • 162.69 WBTC – worth $14.96 million
  • 13.2 million Tether (USDT)
  • 4,972 staked ETH – amounting to $11.4 million
  • 40.71 million TRX – valued at $10 million
  • 7.58 million MOVE – valued at $3.63 million

WLFI also holds Ondo (ONDO), USDC, and WhiteRock, among other assets.

Trump’s Crypto Reserve: A Game-Changer?

The latest investments coincide with Trump’s Crypto Strategic Reserve, a new initiative aimed at stockpiling key cryptocurrencies.

Initially, reports suggested XRP, Solana (SOL), and Cardano (ADA) would be included. However, Trump later clarified that Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) would be central to the reserve.

This move has sparked controversy, as critics argue it could artificially inflate the value of assets held by Trump’s allies. Reports from crypto(.)news suggest Trump and his inner circle control over 60% of WLFI, raising conflict of interest concerns.

However, The Trump Organization denies any misconduct, stating that WLFI is managed by his children, an external ethics attorney, and an independent investment firm.
