The World Liberty tokens, known as $WLFI, were sold to investors after the Trump family and its business partners last year launched the venture, a decentralised finance platform that has also issued a stablecoin.

Investors in the tokens voted in July to make them tradable, paving the way for their sale and purchase, and potentially boosting the value of the president’s holdings of them.

Early investors can sell up to 20% of their holdings, World Liberty has said.
