World Liberty’s $8.29b portfolio
World Liberty’s token buyback is part of the firm’s regular strategy. Arkham’s data shows the company now holds about $8.29 billion in crypto. Most of that—over 95% of the portfolio—is in WLFI tokens. It also has $96.6 million in the project’s native USD1 stablecoin.
The firm also has funds in various stablecoins, including $94.7 million in AETHUSDT, and $39.7 million in AETHUSDC. In addition, smaller positions in AETHWETH, AETHWSTETH, and AETHWBTC are held in the wallets, ranging from $14 million to $23 million. These assets are derivatives of Aave where the base asset is deposited to earn yield.
Recent security measures and new investments
Besides the buyback, WLFI continues addressing prior security incidents. On November 19, the project confirmed phishing attacks impacted a subset of user wallets. WLFI stated, “Prior to WLFI’s launch, a relatively small subset of user wallets were compromised via phishing attacks or exposed seed phrases.” The team froze affected wallets, verified ownership through KYC, and developed smart contract logic to safely reallocate funds.
Additionally, World Liberty announced a strategic investment in the meme token SPSC. The team posted, “Buying $SPSC because the trenches finally found religion in USD1 memes. If they’re gonna make a coin in honor of our WLFI Co-Founder… we’re in.” Hence, the firm is balancing its portfolio expansion with proactive security measures to protect user assets.
