A Trump-linked project, WLFI, is being reviewed after its partners were linked to a sanctions network, and its due diligence capabilities are being questioned

WLFI4.93%

Gate News, April 8, Trump-linked crypto project World Liberty Financial (WLFI) has once again been embroiled in controversy over its cooperation with the Southeast Asian blockchain project AB DAO. An investigation by The Times shows that AB DAO’s flagship project had previously involved multiple individuals who have been sanctioned by the U.S. and the U.K., and that these people have ties to the Prince Group in Cambodia. U.S. authorities have characterized the organization as a major transnational criminal network. WLFI said it had conducted due diligence on its counterpart and that it had “no connection” to the sanctioned individuals, but the investigation found that it was unaware of AB DAO’s past promotion of a resort project related to the Prince Group.
