In this news:
World Liberty Financial (WLFI), a decentralized finance platform reportedly backed by Donald Trump, has ramped up its crypto holdings with a new addition of Sei (SEI).
WLFI purchased 4.89 million SEI tokens on April 12, valued at approximately $775,000 according to data retrieved by Finbold blockchain data from Arkham Intel.
The trade was executed through a USDC-funded wallet that WLFI had previously used for other altcoin purchases.
SEI has seen a sharp rally of over 30% in the past week, with nearly one-fifth of those gains occurring after April 12, pushing the token’s price above $0.17.
Despite the recent upswing, SEI remains down roughly 11% over the past month, amid ongoing volatility across the market.
WLFI’s broader portfolio remains underwater despite Q1 rebound
Notably, WLFI recorded a strong 13.41% increase in Q1 2025, with Finbold’s Q1 2025 Cryptocurrency Market Report showing growth from $72.82 million at the start of the year to $82.51 million by the end of March.
WLFI’s latest buy comes amid a challenging period for its overall portfolio. The Trump-affiliated entity has spent a total of $346.8 million across 11 cryptocurrencies, yet none of those positions are currently in profit.
Ethereum (ETH) alone accounts for more than $114 million in unrealized losses, contributing to a total portfolio deficit of approximately $145.8 million as of April 12, according to blockchain researcher Lookonchain.
Still, the portfolio has recently shown signs of recovery. Data from Arkham Intelligence pegs WLFI’s total holdings at $102.98 million, representing a modest 0.85% gain.
