Former President Donald J. Trump is hinting at the upcoming release of his sons’ crypto project, “World Liberty Financial.”
In recent weeks, Trump has been promoting the initiative, and on Sept. 12, he shared a video on his X account, inviting followers to join a live Twitter Spaces event on Sept. 16, where he will officially introduce the project.
“We are embracing the future with crypto, leaving behind slow and outdated big banks,” Trump stated.
Speculation has been building around the Trump family’s foray into the crypto market. In early August, both Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump suggested the family had major plans for cryptocurrency, fueling rumors of an imminent announcement.
Reports now indicate the Trump-backed project will be built on the Aave decentralized finance platform and Ethereum’s blockchain, with a focus on developing a “credit account system” and promoting stablecoin adoption.
Security remains a priority for World Liberty Financial, as the project team collaborates with leading security firms, including PeckShield, Zokyo, and BlockSecTeam. The platform’s code has reportedly undergone thorough scrutiny by industry experts to safeguard against vulnerabilities.
The announcement comes at a notable time, as earlier in September, the X accounts of Lara and Tiffany Trump were hacked, with posts referencing a token supposedly linked to World Liberty Financial.
