Aqua 1 Foundation, an investment fund based in UAE, today announced the purchase of toke administration chips at World Liberty Financial (WLF) of $ 100 million, which strengthened its position as the largest investor in the controversial crypto of the company closely tied to Trump’s family. The agreement means the second main investment in the Middle East in WLF within a few months, raising new issues concerning foreign influence and conflict of interest surrounding the decentralized financial platform.
The investment provides significant Aqua 1 voting rights regarding the future WLF development. According to a joint statement, capital will speed up the WLF plans to build financial applications with blockchain, including the extension of its USD1 Stablecoin and developing platforms for tokenization of traditional assets such as real estate or commodities.
Partnership also includes plans for joint developments “Blockrock”, institutional tokenization platforms for tokenization Asset (RWA) and supports the launch of “Aqua 1 Fund”, investment investment investment in SAE supported by regional stakeholders.
“Comparison with Aqua 1 verifies our plan for global financial innovations,” said co -founder WLF Zak Folkman. “We have a common mission that will bring digital assets to masses and strengthen the position of our nation as a champion and cryptocurrency leader.”
Dave Lee, the founding partner of Aqua 1, stressed that the USD1 WLF ecosystem represents a “trillion dollars of structural turns” of merger of traditional financing with decentralized technology.
World Liberty Financial: Trump Family Enterprise
This investment is lit by another reflector on the origin and ownership structure of WLF, which has brought intensive control since its start:
WLF was founded in 2024 and is primarily owned by DT Marks Defi LLC, a subject controlled by Donald Trump and his family, which holds approximately 60% (recently reduced from 75%). The entity for family companies Trump is entitled to 75% of all net income from the sale of WLF tokens. Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr. are actively involved in line, while Barron Trump is listed as a “defi visionary” of the project. Initial co -founders Zachary Folkman and Chase Herro are processing everyday operations.
Geopolitical and ethical concerns will appear
The investment of Aqua 1, which, after a close agreement on the ABU DHABI MGX agreement, closely amplifies concerns between experts in the ethics of the government and the criticism of Trump’s administration. They argue that these essential foreign investments, especially from nations with sovereign funds of wealth and strategic interests, create a significant potential for the influence of swearing and clashes of interest. Administration and WLF claim that there are no conflicts, which shows that Trump’s asset was in trust, administered by his children.
