World Liberty Fi, a cryptocurrency investment fund reportedly connected to former U.S. President Donald Trump, has made a strategic acquisition of $EOS tokens just as the network prepares for a sweeping rebrand under the new name Vaulta. The transition includes a token ticker change from EOS to “A” and signals a broader overhaul of the blockchain’s structure and ecosystem.

$3M EOS Buy Precedes Major Token Shift

On-chain data shows that World Liberty Fi recently purchased nearly $2.99 million worth of EOS via PancakeSwap, a decentralized exchange on Binance Smart Chain (BSC). The average purchase price was around $0.82, with trades affected by the platform's relatively thin liquidity.

Notably, the fund opted to acquire EOS on BSC rather than its native blockchain, a move that could complicate participation in the token conversion process as Vaulta’s rebranding efforts go live.

Strategic Pivot Beyond Ethereum and BNB Chain

Historically, World Liberty Fi has focused its investments within the Ethereum and BNB Chain ecosystems. Its proprietary stablecoin, WLUSD, is BNB Chain-native, and previous allocations have centered around assets within that network.

The EOS acquisition may represent a diversification strategy—or a speculative bet—on a legacy chain that has seen fading developer interest but now hopes to reignite momentum with the Vaulta transformation.

EOS: Once a Giant, Now Seeking Revival

EOS was a flagship project of the 2018 ICO era, raising an unprecedented $4.6 billion in ETH. Despite its early promise, the blockchain has struggled to secure a lasting foothold in DeFi and application development.

Daily Active Users: ~2,800
Total Value Locked (TVL): ~$690 million
Top Exchange: Binance (centralized)

While it retains a dedicated user base, EOS has lagged behind newer, more scalable blockchains like Solana.

Questions Surround Timing and Intent

Vaulta began its rebranding and EOS-to-“A” token swap process on May 14, with conversion tools now active. World Liberty Fi’s entry into EOS came just before this milestone, fueling speculation about the timing and intent of the move.

Is this a short-term play capitalizing on rebranding hype?

Or does the fund have deeper insight into Vaulta’s roadmap that could signal long-term value?

Community Reactions: Caution Meets Curiosity

The crypto community remains divided. Critics point to World Liberty Fi’s previous missteps—such as significant losses in Movement (MOVE), a token dogged by market manipulation concerns.

Supporters, however, suggest this might be a calculated move based on privileged information or early access to Vaulta’s restructuring plans.

Final Take: Visionary Move or Risky Bet?

With approximately $106 million in assets under management, World Liberty Fi continues to make bold, and at times polarizing, investment decisions. The EOS purchase reflects the fund’s appetite for risk during key inflection points in blockchain project lifecycles.

As Vaulta rolls out its new vision, all eyes will be on whether this bet yields significant upside—or becomes another lesson in high-stakes crypto investing.
