Recently, TRON founder Justin Sun has once again entered the public eye in a striking manner. This time, he became the largest investor in the decentralized finance (defi) project "World Liberty Financial Initiative" (abbreviated as WLFI) backed by former and current USA President Donald Trump through his investment. This move not only injected funding into WLFI but also sparked widespread attention from the market.

The WLFI project is set to launch in September 2024, positioning itself as a tokenized solution supporting a "free, open, and transparent" financial system, aiming to improve global capital flow through blockchain technology. However, despite its ambitious goals and plans to sell $0.3 billion worth of WLFI tokens, its initial sales have faced challenges. After sales began, WLFI's token sales fell far short of expectations, only selling $21 million, a significant distance from the target.

WLFI's sales restrictions have impacted its market performance. According to regulations, only non-USA investors and certified USA investors are allowed to participate in purchases, and WLFI tokens are not transferable, which discourages many potential cryptos investors. Additionally, the sales proceeds from WLFI will go to a company controlled by Trump, and Trump's company can only profit if the sales proceeds exceed $30 million, a threshold that WLFI had not reached before Justin Sun's investment.

It is reported that on November 25, Justin Sun purchased $30 million worth of WLFI tokens through a wallet associated with Huobi. This investment not only provided WLFI with much-needed liquidity but also reignited market interest in the project. After the announcement, the WLFI token price surged more than 50% in a short time, and trading volume also hit an all-time high. Investors generally view Justin Sun's entry as a vote of confidence in the project.

In response, Justin Sun confirmed this investment on social media, stating: "We are pleased to invest $30 million in World Liberty Financial to become its largest investor. The USA is becoming a blockchain center, and bitcoin should thank Trump!" Justin Sun has long been known for being "daring" and "skilled at creating buzz," and this investment undoubtedly continues in that style. By investing in WLFI, he not only demonstrated support for emerging projects but also further solidified his position as an important figure in the cryptos sector.

Moreover, it is worth mentioning that WLFI is not just an ordinary defi project; it has the support of Trump and his family behind it. Trump's three sons are also involved in the project's operation, and the project team consists of Trump insiders, crypto entrepreneurs, and financial professionals. This background adds considerable political and commercial resources to WLFI.

Investing in projects related to Trump may become a key step for Sun Yuchen to break into the mainstream society and financial circles in the usa. Trump has vast political and commercial resources, which may facilitate future project collaborations for Sun Yuchen. Although WLFI currently faces challenges, its backing by Trump's brand effect could still make it a market hotspot once the right development direction is found. Sun Yuchen's involvement at this time signals both a bullish outlook on the project's potential and a strategic future layout.

Of course, the prospects of the WLFI project itself remain unclear, especially in the highly competitive defi market. Although it has the support of Sun Yuchen, whether it can achieve its expected goals in the future still requires the test of time. The market's expectations for WLFI are clearly higher than its initial performance, and investors will closely monitor its subsequent developments.

Overall, the 'collaboration' between Trump and Sun Yuchen not only creates more intersections for two influential figures in their respective fields but is also interpreted by the market as a 'win-win' business decision. Trump, by bringing in Sun Yuchen, an investor with built-in heat, has not only injected funds into WLFI but also garnered more market attention for the project. Meanwhile, Sun Yuchen has enhanced his visibility in the global market, especially in the usa, by 'networking' with Trump.

Additionally, the 'collaboration' between the two has drawn more market attention to the combination of politics and cryptos. This investment may become a model for cooperation between traditional political forces and the emerging digital economy, with more similar cases likely to emerge in the future.
