Donald Trump’s family business has quietly reduced its stake in World Liberty Financial from 60% to 40%, signaling a partial cash-out after the venture’s $550 million token sales surge.
Trump’s World Liberty Stake Drops to 40% Amid Crypto Windfall
The Trump family has discreetly reduced its ownership stake in World Liberty Financial, the president’s flagship crypto venture, from 60% to 40%. This adjustment follows a flurry of activity in the firm’s token sales, which have reportedly topped $550 million in recent months.
According to the Forbes report, the reduction suggests that Donald Trump or his family members acting through DT Marks DEFI LLC may have realized substantial profits amid surging valuations in the stablecoin market.
If World Liberty were valued similarly to stablecoin giant Circle, which recently went public with a market capitalization pushing $1.7 billion, Trump’s divestment could have netted the family an estimated $190 million.
The sale comes amid growing momentum in crypto regulation. The U.S. Senate’s passage of stablecoin oversight rules has fueled market optimism, sending shares of public players like Circle soaring.
Despite the sizable financial maneuver, details remain scarce, with the strategic reduction reflecting the family’s intent to lock in gains while regulatory clarity boosts market valuations. This could potentially set the stage for further divestments or expansions as crypto adoption deepens.
