Justin Sun joins World Liberty Financial as advisor

Crypto billionaire and Tron founder Justin Sun has joined World Liberty Financial as an advisor.

This announcement follows the Tron (TRX) founder’s massive $30 million investment in the Donald Trump-backed decentralized finance project. As highlighted by crypto.news, Sun announced on November 25 that he purchased $30 million worth of WLFI, World Liberty Financial’s native token. This purchase made him the largest investor in the project.

Sun, who is also an advisor to the HTX cryptocurrency exchange and a supporter of BitTorrent, is now an advisor to the Trump project. Notably, Tron’s founder became WLFI’s largest investor with his surprising acquisition.

“Justin’s insight and experience will be invaluable as we continue to innovate and grow,” World Liberty announced via X.

World Liberty Financial’s launch is in line with Trump’s pro-crypto stance during the presidential campaign. The project aims to dominate the DeFi space through integrations and network developments after the election victory.

The Trump-inspired project recently integrated Chainlink’s technology to support on-chain data and cross-chain connectivity. World Liberty will leverage the infrastructure of the oracle network to advance the resurgent DeFi market.

Sun recently made headlines by spending $6.2 million on a duct-taped banana at a Sotheby’s auction.
