World Liberty Financial Transfers $25 Million USDC, Buys ETH, WBTC and MOVE

Amid this bustling market, World Liberty Financial—a decentralized finance (DeFi) outfit tied to United States President Donald Trump—moved $25 million in USDC on March 5, 2025. The fund snapped up $21.5 million in ETH, WBTC, and the lesser-known MOVE token, leaving $3.5 million unspent.

Blockchain tracker SpotOnChain flagged the trades on X, igniting chatter across the crypto sphere. This isn’t a one-off. The fund’s been stockpiling digital assets since late 2024, and the numbers tell a story worth dissecting.

Breaking Down World Liberty Financial $25 Million Haul

World Liberty Financial transferred $25 million in USDC to a new multi-signature wallet on March 5, 2025. Within 45 minutes, it executed three precise buys, per SpotOnChain data:

  • 4,468 ETH at $2,238 each, costing $10 million
  • 110.6 WBTC at $90,420 per token, totaling $10 million.
  • 3.42 million MOVE at $0.439 per token, hitting $1.5 million.

That leaves $3.5 million in USDC sitting idle. SpotOnChain noted the speed and urged followers to track the wallet live. The fund’s efficiency stands out—$21.5 million deployed in under an hour signals a clear strategy.

This latest buy fits a pattern. World Liberty Financial has been stacking crypto since late 2024. Arkham Intelligence pegs its holdings at $79,282,778.79 as of March 6.

Flashback to January 20, 2025—Trump’s inauguration day—the fund dropped $47 million each on ETH and WBTC, plus smaller grabs of AAVE, LINK, TRX, and ENA. More buys followed in late January and February.

MOVE Token Enters the Mix

The MOVE purchase grabs attention. Unlike ETH and WBTC—crypto heavyweights—MOVE trades at $0.439 and ties to the Movement Network, a DeFi and governance project.

Details are thin, but World Liberty Financial scooped up 3.42 million tokens for $1.5 million. It’s a smaller play next to the $10 million ETH and WBTC buys, yet it hints at diversification. The fund’s blending blue-chip assets with emerging tokens like MOVE shows a calculated spread.

World Liberty Financial’s moves sync with Trump’s pro-crypto push. On January 20, 2025, he signed an executive order to study a U.S. Bitcoin and crypto reserve. The fund’s January buys marked his return to office, and its March  6 haul keeps the momentum.

That unspent $3.5 million in USDC looms large. After dropping $21.5 million in 45 minutes, the fund could strike again. Will it bolster ETH, WBTC, or MOVE? Or pivot to new tokens?

WLFI Token Swaps Details

World Liberty Financial is tackling rumors about token swaps and sales by firmly denying any WLFI token sales while confirming active talks with blockchain partners for potential swap arrangements.

In a post on X March 6, WLFI emphasized its dedication to openness and safety, announcing that all swaps will occur through a single, trackable address—Etherscan: 0xa713fc94db054aa435af4d9c66c3433dca98559f—where anyone can monitor on-chain transactions live.

They also pledged to transfer all holdings back to their primary safe after each swap, using no other addresses, to ensure a secure and transparent process that keeps stakeholders informed and confident.
