Donald Trump has recently announced his ambition to make the United States the “crypto capital of the planet.” This plan is part of a broader strategy to position the U.S. as a global leader in the cryptocurrency and decentralized finance (DeFi) sectors. Trump is leveraging this approach to appeal to the growing crypto community and potential voters who are passionate about blockchain technology.

Central to this initiative is a new project called “World Liberty Financial,” which is being spearheaded by Trump’s sons, Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump. Although details about the project are still emerging, it is expected to offer services that could rival traditional banking systems, possibly involving decentralized finance solutions and digital real estate ventures. This project is part of a larger effort to challenge established financial institutions and create more equitable financial opportunities through crypto.

Additionally, Trump has tied this initiative to his political messaging, framing it as a way to liberate Americans from the control of big banks and financial elites. His campaign has already garnered significant support from the crypto community, with reported donations reaching $25 million, although this figure is yet to be independently verified.
