WLFI announced the fund on Feb. 11, and noted that the fund is intended to support the cryptocurrency projects and permit their further role into the existing financial system. This intends to strengthen the stability of such assets by diversifying holdings across the tokenized asset spectrum for a more solid financial structure. Meanwhile, it will also look into new opportunities in decentralized finance (DeFi).
The announcement follows recent speculation about the Trump family’s involvement in Ethereum-based businesses. Ethereum co-founder Joseph Lubin recently claimed that the Trump family plans to build “giant” ventures on Ethereum. He also suggested that the Trump administration could eventually use Ethereum technology in government operations.
WLFI is also working on forming partnerships with traditional financial (TradFi) institutions. The company stated that institutions collaborating with the new fund will gain exposure to blockchain-based finance and benefit from innovative marketing opportunities.
A detailed proposal for the Macro Strategy fund will soon be shared on WLFI’s governance forum.
Meanwhile, Bitcoin’s institutional adoption continues. The University of Austin is raising a $5 million Bitcoin fund as part of its $200 million endowment, marking another step in mainstream crypto investment.
