ALT5 Sigma Corporation, a company supported by Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr., has announced the completion of a $1.5 billion registered direct offering and private placement. The funding will be directed toward launching the company’s treasury strategy, which will primarily focus on acquiring WLFI, the native token of World Liberty Financial (WLFI).
The strategy involves acquiring approximately 7.5% of the total supply of WLFI tokens. As part of the broader plan, the company intends to use the funds for various corporate needs, including repaying existing debt, settling litigation, and supporting general expenses related to its operations.
Leadership Changes and Key Partnerships
The completion of the $1.5 billion offering also brings significant changes to ALT5 Sigma’s leadership. Zach Witkoff, the co-founder and CEO of World Liberty Financial, will become the Chairman of ALT5 Sigma’s board of directors.
Eric Trump, one of the notable backers of ALT5 Sigma, will join the company’s board as a director. Additionally, Kraken, a leading cryptocurrency exchange, will act as the asset manager for the company.

A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners has been named as the sole placement agent for the funding deal. These leadership changes and partnerships reflect the company’s evolving approach to expand its presence in the cryptocurrency and digital asset space.
ALT5 Sigma’s Plans for the WLFI Token
The WLFI token, a significant part of the company’s treasury strategy, will soon be available for trading following a July governance vote. Once the token becomes tradeable, ALT5 Sigma expects it to be listed on both major centralized and decentralized exchanges.
The company’s goal is to build a strong position in the token’s supply while positioning it as a valuable asset in the digital finance ecosystem.
Eric Trump has confirmed that the team is now in the process of executing this strategy and expects a smooth rollout for the WLFI token on exchanges. This move marks a key milestone in the company’s long-term plan to expand its digital asset portfolio and increase its footprint in the evolving cryptocurrency market.
ALT5 Sigma’s Operations and Market Reach
Founded in 2018, ALT5 Sigma has already processed more than $5 billion in crypto transactions. The company operates two main platforms: ALT5 Pay, a crypto payment gateway, and ALT5 Prime, an electronic over-the-counter trading platform.
The company’s growing presence in the crypto industry positions it well to benefit from the increasing adoption of blockchain-based financial products.
As part of its strategic initiatives, ALT5 Sigma is also set to ring the Nasdaq opening bell tomorrow. This further emphasizes the company’s ongoing commitment to expanding its influence in the digital asset space, especially under the backing of prominent figures like Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr.
