贾斯汀（Justin）支持的世界自由金融（World Liberty Financial）成为有史以来第四大的ICO

唐纳德·特朗普（Donald Trump）支持的加密项目世界自由金融（World Liberty Financial）的早期成功归功于中国出生的加密货币亿万富翁贾斯汀·孙（Justin Sun）。

World Liberty Financial, the Donald Trump-backed crypto project, owes much of its early success to Justin Sun, the Chinese-born crypto billionaire who became an official advisor to the project after purchasing $30 million worth of its token, WLFI, said World Liberty co-founder Zak Folkman.

唐纳德·特朗普（Donald Trump）支持的加密项目世界自由金融（World Liberty Financial）归功于中国出生的加密货币亿万富翁贾斯汀·孙（Justin Sun），他在购买了价值3000万美元的WLFI后成为该项目的正式顾问。联合创始人Zak Folkman。

“The goal of the project is being able to create progress to actually merge traditional financial institutions with decentralized finance,” said Folkman in a panel at CoinDesk's Consensus Hong Kong conference.

“该项目的目标是能够取得进步，以将传统金融机构与分散的金融合并，” Folkman在Coindesk共识香港会议的一个小组中说。

For several weeks, the Trump-endorsed WLFI faced lackluster sales, failing to reach its $30 million fundraising target. The token was restricted from trading and only available to non-U.S. investors and accredited U.S. investors.

在几个星期内，特朗普认可的WLFI面临的销售平淡，未达到3000万美元的筹款目标。代币仅限于交易，仅适用于非美国投资者和认可的美国投资者。

However, the project's fortunes changed when Sun stepped in. “This guy,” said Folkman with a gesture towards Sun, “saw that regardless of the outcome, this project is a monumental move forward for the entire crypto community.”

然而，当太阳介入时，项目的命运发生了变化。“这个家伙，对太阳的姿态说：“无论结果如何，这个项目都是整个加密货币社区的巨大行动。”

When Trump announced World Liberty Financial alongside his sons in October, they said it would be a lending platform based on Aave — a popular Ethereum-based decentralized finance protocol.

当特朗普在10月与儿子们一起宣布世界自由金融时，他们说这将是一个基于AAVE的贷款平台，该平台是基于以太坊的流行分散财务协议。

The platform has yet to launch, but according to Folkman, World Liberty is now developing "a whole range of products and applications" — not just a single tool.

该平台尚未启动，但是根据Folkman的说法，World Liberty现在正在开发“一系列产品和应用程序”，而不仅仅是一种工具。

Today, World Liberty Financial is known for WLFI, the governance token that it put up for sale mere days after the project was unveiled.

如今，世界自由金融以WLFI而闻名，即该项目在该项目揭幕后几天就出售的治理令牌。

“When we were launching this project, it was a very heated time," Folkman told the panel. "There was a lot of scrutiny on our project due to who was involved."

福克曼对小组小组说：“当我们启动这个项目时，这是一个非常激烈的时间。由于谁参与其中，我们的项目进行了很多审查。”

After Sun's 10-figure endorsement, “everything kind of snowballed from there,” said Folkman. World Liberty not only oversold its fundraising target, but it eventually set a new one. Should it meet its new goal — which it seems poised to do soon — Folkman noted that WLFI will become the fourth-largest initial coin offering (ICO) of all time.

福克曼说，在太阳的10位认可之后，“一切都从那里滚滚了。”世界自由不仅超越了其筹款目标，而且最终设定了一个新的目标。民间曼指出，如果它符合其新目标（似乎很快就可以做到这一点），WLFI将成为有史以来第四大初始硬币产品（ICO）。

Folkman claims WLFI's success came despite "no VC backing and no special treatment to anybody who purchased the token."

Folkman声称，尽管“没有VC支持，也没有任何购买令牌的人的特殊待遇”，但Folkman声称WLFI的成功还是取得了成功。”

Sun, however, was elevated to an official World Liberty investor after his WLFI purchase. World Liberty also bought $10 million worth of TRX tokens — the native token of Sun's TRON blockchain — and WBTC, a Sun-linked bitcoin derivative.

但是，Sun购买WLFI后，Sun被提升为官方世界自由投资者。 World Liberty还购买了价值1000万美元的TRX代币（Sun的Tron区块链的本地令牌）和WBTC，这是一种与阳光的比特币衍生产品。

Earlier in Feb., Blockworks reported that World Liberty has been shopping a deal to crypto teams: If a company purchases WLFI tokens and pays an additional fee, World Liberty will add that company's tokens to its portfolio — a powerful marketing instrument for up-and-coming crypto tokens.

2月初，Blockworks报道说，世界自由是为加密团队购物的交易：如果公司购买WLFI代币并支付额外费用，World Liberty将补充说，该公司的代币对其投资组合 - 一种强大的营销工具，用于上升和新兴的营销工具 - 加密令牌。

“I’ve seen that going around," Folkman said of the report. "The person who was going out and purporting to represent us was not connected with our company.”

福克曼谈到该报告时说：“我已经看到了这一点。出去宣称代表我们的人与我们的公司没有联系。”
