Trump family seems to be strengthening its control over WLFI. WLFI was announced by Trump before taking office, but is still in the development stage. According to a report released by Reuters on Monday, the Trump family further consolidated their control over World Liberty in January by establishing WLF Holdco LLC. DT Marks DeFi LLC, an affiliate entity of Trump and some of his family members, holds 60% of the shares of the new company WLF Holdco LLC, while WLF Holdco LLC holds the sole membership interest in WLFI, responsible for overseeing the development and operation of the WLFI governance platform. Although it is currently unclear who owns the remaining 40%, this adjustment seems to no longer make WLFI co-founders Zak Folkman and Chase Herro the controllers of the platform.

Written by Genny Ngai and Will Roth from Morrison Cohen LLP, the Trump administration has labeled drug and violent cartels as Foreign Terrorist Organizations (FTOs) and Specially Designated Global Terrorists (SDGTs) since taking office. President Trump's orders to eliminate these cartels pose a significant threat to the cryptocurrency industry, potentially leading to unintended consequences for the digital asset community. The recent legal action against cryptocurrency companies, such as Binance, for aiding terrorist groups highlights the need for vigilance and compliance with anti-terrorism laws in the industry. As drug cartels are now considered terrorist organizations, crypto companies should be prepared for potential lawsuits and ensure they are not inadvertently involved in illegal activities.

Three individuals were found guilty of deceiving victims with promises of high returns through the selection of 1,000 top-tier cryptocurrencies worldwide, claiming monthly profits of up to 30%. However, it was later discovered that their "proprietary trading algorithm" was a sham, with the money being misappropriated for personal gain. The main perpetrator received a four-and-a-half-year prison sentence, while his two associates were sentenced to three-and-a-half and two-and-a-half years. The court condemned their exploitation of public interest in cryptocurrencies, emphasizing the need for a strong judicial response to such crimes.

The CEO of BlackRock highlighted the growing significance of digital assets, such as Bitcoin, as a potential threat to the global dominance of the dollar. The U.S. debt is increasing at a faster pace than the economy, with interest payments expected to exceed $952 billion this year, surpassing military spending. If not addressed, by 2030 debt service and mandatory spending could consume all federal revenue, leading to a permanent deficit. While acknowledging the role of digital assets, the CEO expressed concerns that decentralized finance could shift the balance of power in the global economy, posing challenges to the U.S. dollar's supremacy. BlackRock's Bitcoin ETF, IBIT, has achieved remarkable growth, becoming the largest ETF launch in history with $50 billion in assets under management within a year, driven by significant inflows in 2024. The CEO suggested that if more institutional and retail investors allocate a small percentage of their portfolios to Bitcoin, its price could potentially reach $700,000, positioning BlackRock as a key player in the digital asset space with offerings in Canada and Europe.
