World Liberty Financial, the cryptоcurrency initiative backed by President-elect Donald Trump, has continued its aggressive crypto buying spree with a recent purchase of $250,000 worth of ONDO.

According to data from Arkham Intelligence, the decentralized finance (DeFi) project acquired 134,216 Ondo Finance (ONDO) tokens through Cow Protocol at an average price of $1.83.

Blockchain monitoring platform Lookonchain reported that since November 30, a wallet tied to World Liberty Financial has made significant acquisitions, including $30 million in Ether and $10 million in Coinbase Wrapped BTC. These purchases are part of a broader buying spree, as detailed in a December 16 post from the platform.

Lookonchain reported that the project’s recent acquisition of ONDO followed a previous рurchase of $500,000 worth of Ethena (ENA). A multi-signature wallet associated with the project has spent a total of $44.75 million to acquire six different tokens.

Moreover, World Liberty Financial is actively utilizing Chainlink to enhance data accuracy and facilitate cross-chain connectivity within its DeFi ecosystem. In November, the project’s govеrnance community proposed the integration of Aave v3 on the Ethereum blockchain.

World Liberty Financial has faced challenges in meeting its target for the sale of its WLFI token, having sold less than 25% of the $300 million worth it initially offered. Despite these struggles, the project received a significant boost when TRON founder Justin Sun made a $30 million investment, becoming its largest backer.

This move not only helped stabilize the project’s financial outloоk but also saw Sun take on an advisory role, further suрporting its development.

ONDO Token Price Surges

Following World Liberty Financial’s recent acquisition, the ONDO token saw a notable increase of over 14% in the past 24 hours. In the past week, its value surged by 28.5%, making it a standout in the real-world assets (RWA) sector.

As of this writing, ONDO is trading at $2.04 with a trading volume of $583.84 million, per CoinMarketCap data. This significant price movement highlights the growing interest and attention in ONDO, particularly after getting a nod from World Liberty Financial.
