World Liberty Denies Selling Any Ether, Disputes Arkham Data

Key Points:

• World Liberty Financial Initiative (WLFI) insists it has not liquidated any of its crypto holdings.

• Despite recent market activity, the project remains deeply in the red—down nine figures—following a series of acquisitions over the last half-year.

World Liberty Financial, a DeFi project tied to former U.S. President Donald Trump's family, has refuted claims that it sold any ether (ETH) this week.

Earlier reports suggested a wallet associated with the project—identified by blockchain analytics firm Arkham—unloaded $8 million in ETH following more than $125 million in unrealized losses. WLFI has denied any connection to the reported sale.

A spokesperson for World Liberty Financial stated: “The reports suggesting that WLFI has sold any of its holdings are completely false. We have not exited any positions as claimed. Any speculation otherwise is inaccurate.”

Ether has recovered slightly since the alleged transaction, rising from $1,465 to $1,553 following a modest rebound across crypto markets on Wednesday.

In February, Eric Trump called it a “great time to buy” ether when the asset was priced around $2,880.

Meanwhile, blockchain analytics firm Arkham has yet to respond to inquiries regarding its attribution of the wallet activity to World Liberty Financial.
