President Trump’s World Liberty Financial Purchases More Crypto As Total Losses Hits $118,000,000: On-Chain Data

The crypto project backed by US President Donald Trump has acquired another multi-million-dollar batch of digital assets, on-chain data shows.

According to blockchain tracking firm Lookonchain, World Liberty Financial (WLFI) bought about $2 million worth of Avalanche (AVAX) and Mantle (MNT).

Avalanche is a layer-1 Ethereum (ETH) rival, while Mantle is a prominent Ethereum layer-2 scaling solution.

However, Lookonchain notes that WLFI’s portfolio, which includes more than 11 crypto assets, is losing on every single token, down nearly $120 million in total.

“Trump’s World Liberty [Financial] bought 103,911 AVAX ($2 million) and 2.45 million MNT ($2 million)…

In total, World Liberty has spent $343 million on 11 different tokens – but every single one is in the red, with a total loss of $118 million!”

At time of writing, AVAX is trading at $18.35 while MNT is priced at $0.826.

Besides privately accumulating digital assets through WLFI, President Trump has also proposed for the US to create its own national crypto strategic reserve of Bitcoin (BTC) and several large-cap altcoins.

Trump’s initial confirmation of the crypto reserve triggered a $100 billion surge in the global crypto market, which was ultimately short-lived.

Trump framed the reserve as a response to what he called “corrupt attacks” on the crypto industry by the Biden administration, emphasizing his goal to make the US the “crypto capital of the world.”

Dogecoin Price Prediction: DOGE Plunges 7% As Experts Say Consider This Innovative Staking Meme Coin For 100X Gains

Image
The Dogecoin price plunged 7% in the last 24 hours to trade at $0.1922 as of 2.20 a.m. EST on trading volume that plummeted 23% to $7.56 billion. After surging over the past two days during the US election, the Dogecoin price climbed to $0.21, only for it to then correct back under the resistance at $0.20. The project only reached this height twice in the past year — once in March, and once again in April. However, with the election now officially over, the hype has died down, and prices have corrected. But Dogecoin might prove to be a special case given Trump’s plans to create a new crypto-related department and put Elon Musk — a major DOGE supporter — in charge of it. Recent mentions of the so-called Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE, have fired Dogecoin higher, and so many are likely to keep DOGE in expectation of much greater gains in months and years to come. Dogecoin Price Prediction The Dogecoin price correction in the last 24 hours was fa...

Elon Musk Dogecoin Joke Fails To Ignite DOGE Price Even As Donald Trump Considers Tesla Titan For Public Office

Image
A Dogecoin joke by Tesla and SpaceX founder Elon Musk failed to stem a DOGE slump even as former President Donald Trump said he’d offer him a cabinet post if he re-takes the White House. In an Aug. 20 post on X, Musk said he’s “willing to serve,” along with a picture of him standing at a podium with the words “D.O.G.E. – Department of Government Efficiency.” Following the post, the price of Dogecoin registered a slight 24-hour loss to trade at $0.1046 as of 2:50 a.m. EST, perhaps signaling Musk’s waning influence on the price of the biggest meme coin by market capitalization. Trump Willing To Offer Elon Musk A Cabinet Position Musk’s post came in response to Trump saying that he would offer the Tesla and SpaceX founder a Cabinet position or an advisory role if he gets elected, and assuming Musk was interested. In an interview with Reuters, the Republican nominee said that he would approach Musk for such a position “i...
