President Donald AssetWho was firmly opposed to the crypto, is now his strongest defender.
The change started when Trump campaigned for the presidency in 2024, having accepted donations worth $ 7.5 million in cryptocurrency. Since he was sworn in for the second time, he has launched companies for the crypto trade, written political initiatives of Procrypto and forced international diplomacy through digital assets. He joined Crypto in the American financial system and created a crypto reserve, even if it has dissolved a team working on cryptographic crimes.
The role of Trump in cryptocurrency is multifaceted: he is a high-level investor, a political reformer and a diplomatic influencer and his transition from the critic to the champion of ethical problems and serious security.
In recent months, US companies linked to Trump have signed several agreements with organizations sponsored by the government of various countries for the crypto. The process is currently evolving at an exceptional rate.
The interaction of personal profit and policy increases the main red flags and has a huge impact on international relations.
WLF climb
The only thing common to transactions supported by Trump is World Liberty Financial (WLF). It is a DEFI platform – a blockchain -based system offering financial services – whose headquarters are in Wilmington, Delaware. It is a bank that performs everything that a bank does, except that everything is in crypto. The Trump family formed WLF in September 2024 after Donald Trump crossed the Republican primaries and obtained sympathy after an assassination attempt. WLF launched its token Wlfi $, which was bought in Bulk by the Trump family at the time.
After having become president, Trump launched two types of same, one in his own name and another in the name of his wife, qualifying them $ Trump and $ Melania.
These same, without intrinsic, support him, gain the value of negotiation, media threw, social media or the celebrity association rather than practical use cases.
Today, it is planned to list WLF on Nasdaq.
Since Trump became Potus, several transactions were signed with various countries, which not only benefited the WLF, but has shown the price of his own portfolio.
For example, in March 2025, WLF sent a letter of intent to Pakistan for the inclusion of the crypto in its financial institutions and signed an official agreement on April 26. During the next two months, Pakistan created a regulatory framework and began to trade in crypto with WLF.
Meanwhile, to the water, Trump’s stablecoin was used by the MGX belonging to the State in its investment of $ 2 billion in Binance Crypto Exchange, while another fund based in this country bought for 100 million dollars of WLFI tokens.
In May, GD Culture Group, a company with close links with the Chinese government, invested $ 300 million in $ Trump. In April, the FR8Tech, a technological company based in Mexico, invested $ 20 million in $ Trump Memecoin.
Trump organizations such as CIC Digital and Fight Fight Fight Controls Check the $ Trump Memecoin, while MKT World, belonging to Melania, controls the sale of $ Melania. Since their launch, more than 50 major investors, including Oddiyana Ventures, Web3port, DWF Labs and Aqua1 Foundation, around the world, have invested in WLF.
In August, Alt5 Sigma Corporation, a fintech and digital cash company listed in Nasdaq, concluded an agreement of $ 1.5 billion with WLF and acquired 7.5% of WLF tokens. This agreement gave a significant boost to the price of the WLFI token market.
These are just a few examples, and there could be other governments and private organizations that could have invested massively in Trump’s cryptographic companies.
The other side of the room
It is extremely difficult to speculate on Trump’s net value on cryptographic platforms, and various estimates have floated. The New York Times set it $ 7.1 billion in July, Bloomberg limited it to $ 620 million in the same month. Others like Forbes gave an estimate of $ 3.3 billion, while being responsible. One estimated it at more than $ 11 billion.
A major reason for the wild variance is that the total number of WLFI or $ Trump and $ Meania memecoins chips is not available. How much are on the market and how much a mystery is locked.
However, one thing is clear – in fact, all this crypto value was obtained by Trump and his family after having become the 47th President of the United States.
Shortly after Trump became president, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) abandoned probe in Coinbase, a commercial organization of Crypto led by Brian Armstrong. The company has been accused of marketing of unregistered titles. After the drop in surveys without any penalty, Armstrong concluded an agreement with WLF and listed $ Trump and $ Melania for sale on its platform, which gives them more visibility.
Similarly, a major fraud file against Justin Sun, founder of Cryptochete Tron, was canceled. He quickly invested $ 75 million in WLF in February.
The others on the list of beneficiaries include Ripple Labs, Binance, Horizen Labs, Cumberland, Immutable, Crypto.com, Gemini, Opensea, Uniswap Labs, Consensys, Robinhood, Paypal and Cyberkongz.
Trump’s policies (such as the dismissal of prosecution by dry and the law on engineering) align with its financial interests, while its approach to deregulation can harm the United States in several ways.
These actions can weaken antimoney whitening measures, allowing terrorist or non-state actors to exploit platforms based on the United States, and it can create a different and parallel financial system for illicit activities in the United States and beyond.
The movements of India
Thanks to their involvement in WLF, foreign entities can try to gain influence in American politics. Trump, thanks to these transactions, creates new geopolitical and diplomatic flash points, the signs of which are visible now.
India must be careful, because Pakistan is deeply involved in WLF and America in crypto.
Given its terrorist financing and gray registration report to the financial action working group, Pakistan will use cryptographic channels to finance, finance and empower its terrorist network, which can cause serious challenges to India.
At the same time, in the context of the current tariff war and tense relations with India, the United States can try to project Pakistan as a crypto center for South Asia, hindering the economic interests of India. Hope is that the balanced and prudent approach to India can help attract cryptography investors more and reduce its dependence on the dollar.
