ALT5 Sigma Corporation, supported by Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr., announced Tuesday it had closed a $1.5 billion registered direct offering and private placement to kick off a treasury strategy focused on WLFI, the native token of World Liberty Financial.
The completion of funding, which was led by World Liberty Financial, came after ALT5 Sigma revealed the plan on Monday. The company is targeting acquiring about 7.5% of the WLFI token’s total supply.
In addition to its planned WLFI token purchases, the firm intends to allocate the proceeds toward debt repayment, settling litigation, and covering general corporate expenses.
As part of the deal, World Liberty Financial co-founder and CEO Zach Witkoff will become Chairman of ALT5 Sigma’s board of directors, while Eric Trump will join the company as a director. Kraken will act as an asset manager, and A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners will serve as the sole placement agent.
