Trump-linked World Liberty Financial buys over 3,400 ETH for $13 million, onchain data shows
Quick Take World Liberty Financial acquired more than 3,400 ETH on Tuesday, according to Arkham Intelligence data. Ether has seen growing investor demand, with spot Ethereum exchange-traded funds recording $533.9 million in net inflows on Tuesday.
World Liberty Financial, a crypto project linked to U.S. President Donald Trump, spent millions to acquire more Ethereum on Tuesday as the cryptocurrency sees surging institutional demand.
Citing Arkham Intelligence data , onchain researcher Lookonchain reported that World Liberty added 3,473 ETH at an average price of $3,743 across several wallets during Tuesday evening. It then staked the newly acquired ether on Aave, according to Arkham data.
The project currently owns roughly 73,616 ETH, worth about $275.9 million at current market prices, according to Lookonchain.
World Liberty's move comes amid rising institutional demand for ether. On Tuesday, spot Ethereum exchange-traded funds recorded $533.9 million in net inflows, while spot bitcoin ETFs saw a net outflow of $67.9 million, according to SoSoValue data .
The Block's price page shows that ether remained flat in the past 24 hours at $3,729. However, the second-largest cryptocurrency rose 20% in the past week and 67.1% in the past 30 days.
Meanwhile, World Liberty is preparing for the upcoming unlock of its WLFI token. The team said last week that it is aiming to have WLFI to officially begin trading within the next two months.
"We're targeting 6 to 8 weeks for the full awakening — strategic alignments (alliances, grand stages, smart unlocks) take time to realize full potential," the project said last week.

At the Blockchain Association Policy Summit, U.S. Senators Gillibrand and Lummis stated that the "Crypto Market Structure Bill" is expected to have its draft released by the end of this week, with revisions and hearings scheduled for next week. The bill aims to establish clear boundaries for digital assets by adopting a classification-based regulatory framework, clearly distinguishing between digital commodities and digital securities, and providing a pathway for exemptions for mature blockchains to ensure that regulation does not stifle technological progress. The bill also requires digital commodity trading platforms to register with the CFTC and establishes a joint advisory committee to prevent regulatory gaps or overlapping oversight.
