Abu Dhabi Royal Associate Tied to Trump Cryptocurrency Deal

A secret agreement to sell a 49% stake in World Liberty Financial to an Abu Dhabi royal family associate was reportedly signed before Trump’s 2025 inauguration.

This raises questions about potential conflicts of interest and the overall transparency surrounding such major financial transactions within cryptocurrency markets.

Secret $500 Million Deal Amid 2025 Inauguration Rumors

An agreement is reported to have been signed secretly between a close associate of the Abu Dhabi royal family and the Trump family, involving a $500 million transaction for a 49% stake in World Liberty Financial. This alleged arrangement supposedly occurred shortly before Donald Trump’s presidential inauguration in January 2025, intending to pay $187 million upfront to a Trump family entity.

Despite claims of a significant financial transaction, primary sources, including the official World Liberty Financial website, do not confirm any such agreement or stake acquisition by external entities. Crucial information regarding the transaction remains unverified by credible primary parties.

Reactions from official Trump representatives and the Abu Dhabi royal family have been notably absent, leading to speculation and debate in media circles. The White House has denied any conflicts of interest within Trump’s interactions, labeling media reports as unfounded.

“Trump or his family ‘have ever engaged, or will ever engage, in conflicts of interest.’ … the ‘media’s continued attempts to fabricate conflicts of interest are irresponsible’.” – Karoline Leavitt, Press Secretary, White House.

WLFI Token Slide and Concerns Over Regulatory Gaps

Did you know? In 2025, an entity linked to Abu Dhabi acquired $2 billion USD1 coins for a Binance stake, contrasting with today’s unverified $500 million Trump deal.

World Liberty Financial’s (WLFI) token currently holds a market price of $0.13, with a market cap of $3.41 billion and a 24-hour trading volume reaching $228.65 million, showing an 83.75% change. The token experienced a notable decline of 16.54% over the past 24 hours, according to CoinMarketCap statistics.

The Coincu research team indicates that the absence of immediate regulatory intervention in light of these substantial financial dealings might raise concerns over market regulations and transnational investment norms within the cryptocurrency sphere. The scenario emphasizes the need for vigilant regulatory standards.
