World Liberty Financial (WLFI) and Sui Announce Strategic Collaboration to Drive the Next Generation of Blockchain Applications

WLFI, a Donald J. Trump-inspired DeFi protocol, shares Sui's vision of a more open and transparent financial system.

World Liberty Financial (WLFI) and Sui have joined forces in a strategic partnership to drive the next generation of blockchain applications. Inspired by Donald J. Trump’s vision for financial transparency, WLFI shares Sui’s goal of a more open and transparent financial system.

As part of the partnership, WLFI plans to include Sui assets in its “Macro Strategy.” This strategic token reserve is designed to support leading blockchain projects. The move aligns with WLFI’s mission to bring decentralized finance to a broader audience, particularly in the United States.

“We chose Sui for its American-born innovation, scalability, and growing adoption,” said Zak Folkman, co-founder of WLFI. “This collaboration is a natural step in supporting foundational DeFi assets.”

Announced on X (formerly Twitter), Sui is a rapidly growing Layer-1 blockchain, and the partnership aims to unlock new opportunities in blockchain applications and digital assets, further strengthening the decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystem.

“We are excited to welcome Sui into the Macro Strategy,” said Eric Trump, Web3 Ambassador at WLFI. “This partnership signifies an exciting chapter for both teams as we merge our strengths to innovate in the rapidly evolving landscape of blockchain technology.”

Earlier this year, Trump announced the launch of his new investment firm, Trump World Financial (TWF), which will focus on investing in promising startups across various sectors, including Web3. As part of its strategy, WLFI plans to include Sui assets in its "Macro Strategy."

This strategic token reserve is designed to support leading blockchain projects, and the move aligns with WLFI’s mission to bring decentralized finance to a broader audience, particularly in the United States.

“We chose Sui for its American-born innovation, scalability, and growing adoption,” said Zak Folkman, co-founder of WLFI. “This collaboration is a natural step in supporting foundational DeFi assets.”

Both teams are optimistic about the possibilities arising from this partnership.

“We are impressed by World Liberty Financial’s vision and commitment to expanding financial opportunity,” said Evan Cheng, Co-Founder and CEO of Mysten Labs. “We believe Sui’s technology, combined with WLFI’s ambitions, can redefine how assets are stored and used globally. Our goal is to give people more control over their finances, digital creations, and online presence.”

Sui’s rapid expansion in DeFi and development activity could pave the way for new blockchain-powered financial solutions through this collaboration. In the last few months, Sui has attracted institutional investors, seen over $70 billion in decentralized exchange (DEX) volume, and now boasts over 67 million accounts.

As Sui and WLFI move forward, their joint efforts could shape the future of decentralized finance, making it more accessible, transparent, and innovative.
