The Trump crypto brand just added another billion, with a B, to its namesake after the World Liberty Financial (WLFI) token launch. With the WLFI price around $0.22 today, the Trump family’s holdings are worth roughly $5Bn, according to filings and market data.

Donald Trump himself controls about 15.75Bn WLFI tokens, the top crypto presale, valued at $3.4Bn alone, making crypto the largest source of his wealth.

WTF is going on? At this rate, the next catalyst for the bull run will be this:

  • Epstein files get released, implicating every major US politician (bipartisan)
  • Trump actually is in the files, but his name will be expunged as part of the deal for exposing the list
  • The US government and the Trump family will drain liquidity from the gold reserves and move it into World Liberty Finance (note the name)

But all jokes aside, can you get rich like the Trump crypto brand?

Surprisingly, it is not as complicated as you might think. Trump tariffs threatened the entire global trade order and shifted the calendar. Historically, September is a bad month for crypto, but seeing as Trump caused a dump earlier in the year, we’re about to see a historic Q4 for crypto. Here’s what you should know:

Is The Trump Family Crypto a Scam? WLFI Tokenomics and Market Reaction

Investors were initially barred from selling their WLFI crypto, but a July governance vote allowed early buyers to sell up to 20% of their holdings. The Trumps’ founder allocation remains locked.

Since Monday’s debut, WLFI has dropped nearly 50% from launch levels, now trading around $0.22. Still, many early investors remain in profit, highlighting tepid but real market demand.

According to DeFiLlama, crypto market capitalization for new tokens has swelled +42% year over year, underscoring how projects tied to celebrities or political figures can still attract capital even amid corrections.

The point is that crypto, and the broader American economy, is run like a machine that won’t stop. The newly born are ignorant and partake, and once they realize what’s going on, a new generation repeats the process. There’s no end, and assets are going to keep pumping with minor corrections here and there.

Everyone thinks everything is okay because Trump won, but inflation is still happening. It doesn’t matter how many bandaids he uses. This means assets like crypto and Trump crypto will keep pumping no matter what you think of them.

High APY Alternative to Hold BTC Right Now? Bitcoin Hyper Presale Surges as Layer-2 Adoption Grows

There’s no stopping Trump’s crypto train and one of the coins looking to pump is Bitcoin Hyper. HYPER is a high-speed Layer-2 for Bitcoin with equally high APY to withstand bear markets. Users can lock BTC, mint a wrapped version on Hyper, and transact through a Solana-powered engine before settlements return to the main chain.

The HYPER token presale has already raised $13.6M, with over 584 million tokens staked at yields near 90% APY. At just $0.012845 per token, 99Bitcoins analysts believe that Bitcoin Hyper could outgrow Stacks or Lightning, cementing itself as Bitcoin’s most ambitious scaling play.

No launch date is on the calendar for Bitcoin Hyper’s Layer-2, but accelerating inflows hint at an earlier rollout.

The $13M already banked provides the resources to finalize the product, and a Q3 mainnet debut could align with a pivotal stretch for Bitcoin in Q4. The HYPER crowd is live on Telegram and X for updates and chaos.
