WLFI, first issued to private investors last year, on Monday became available on major crypto exchanges including Binance, OKX and Coinbase

A new cryptocurrency token from US President Donald Trump’s family venture World Liberty Financial started trading on Monday, raking in billions of dollars with noticeable support from China’s crypto community after his son’s trip to Asia.

Zhao resigned from Binance in 2023 and is no longer involved in its management as part of an agreement with the US government, although he remains the largest shareholder. In July, Bloomberg reported that Binance played a key role in World Liberty Financial’s stablecoin USD1, which Zhao denied and called the report a “hit piece”. Zhao said during a podcast in May that he was seeking a pardon from President Trump.
