World Liberty Financial: A DeFi Platform Backed by Trump
The WLF is a DeFi platform, founded in 2024, underwritten by the USA President Trump and his family having a claim of 75% of the net revenues through its tokens’ sale. It aims at strengthening cryptocurrency and amplifying blockchain acceptability.
Trump has pledged to support the industry and his administration has relaxed enforcements against many of the big industry players. Government officials believe that a robust regulatory structure will not only boost confidence among the DeFi players but also integrate country’s digital gold sector in the global financial system. The new policies are expected to be made public in the coming months, Pakistani crypto revolution is signaling an important change in the country’s approach to DeFi. The partnership formalised through a Letter of Intent (LOI) on April 27, 2025, aims to boost the nation's blockchain and stablecoin adoption for remittance and trade.
Reasons behind Trump’s Motivation
Trump’s motivation behind this deal is likely to blend strategic, financial and political objectives.
Pakistan is a key ally of China, greatly reliant on Chinese investments by China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC), and other initiatives. The deal by involving World Liberty Financial could be an attempt to draw the country closer to the U.S.aligned financial system, mitigating its dependence on China. By integrating it into the US backed crypto system, Trump may aim to build an economic leverage over a Chinese ally.
The deal includes regulatory sandboxes, tokenization of the assets, and advisory support that could align nation’s emerging DeFi framework with the U.S. interest. This move would counter China’s authority in global digital finance.
Trump has vowed to make the USA as ‘crypto capital of the planet’. Supporting its legalisation and integration into DeFi could position the USA and World Liberty Financial as a leader in shaping the emerging market.
Critics have flagged Trump’s ventures as creating conflicts of interest, given his role in the US President and World Liberty Forum’s expansion in Asian country like Pakistan. It has raised an ethical question about integrating presidential influence for personal gain.
The involvement of Trump’s son Donald Jr, Eric and Barron as the ‘DeFi visionaries’ and close associates like Steve Witkoff underscores the deal’s role in enhancing Trump's global business profile and Pakistani crypto revolution. Installing World Liberty Forum as a pioneer in the country's digital economy elevates the Trump brand in a potential market.
Conclusion
Trump’s intention behind supporting its cryptocurrency adoption through World Liberty Financial and starting off the Pakistani crypto revolution likely to combine financial self interest, geopolitical maneuvering, and political branding. The deal offers WLF a lucrative entry into Asia's booming market, perfectly matching Trump's family’s profit driven ventures.
