Donald Trump’s Crypto Project To Be Built on Aave

Although most details have not been revealed, reports on social media spaces show certain features of World Liberty Financial, a crypto lending and borrowing platform.

According to the cited whitepaper, the platform will roll out a new crypto asset, WLFI which will serve as the governance token of the platform. WLFI holders can manage the project and vote on incorporating new lending markets. A notable feature of the token is its transfer restrictions which makes it difficult to speculate on its value.
Another revelation is the project’s similarity to Dough Finance, a crypto lending platform drained for $2 million. Four people involved in the projects are also listed as part of team members including three of Donald Trump’s children. Speculations also swirl about how the code differs from Dough Finance after a deleted code base on GitHub showed similarities with Dough Finance. Meanwhile, users have lauded the approach to build the project on Aave and Ethereum although others tipped possible exploration on Solana. The former President also released the fourth series of his digital trading cards offering add-ons to collectors.
Impact on US Polls
As the U.S. elections approach, crypto has continued to gain mainstream traction. This has led to politicians leaning towards the market with some described as courting crypto voters. Donald Trump’s recent statements show a firm stance towards the crypto community particularly Bitcoin with policy watchers tipping clear-cut politics, a situation lacking in the present market. Trump’s plans to launch a crypto protocol have further endeared him to the market ahead of the elections.
