World Liberty Financial (WLF), a Trump-backed DeFi protocol, announced a partnership with Ondo Finance on Wednesday to accelerate the adoption of tokenized real-world assets (RWAs) and bring traditional finance on-chain.
The collaboration follows Ondo’s recent expansion, including the launch of Ondo Global Markets for on-chain stock and bond exposure and a new Layer 1 blockchain.
Ondo Finance Broadens Its Reach with World Liberty Financial Partnership
According to the announcement, the partnership will see World Liberty Financial explore integrating Ondo’s flagship tokenized assets, including the U.S. Dollar Yield (USDY) token and Short-Term U.S. Government Treasuries (OUSG), into its treasury reserve.
These assets are designed to offer yield opportunities and stability, which will enable the company’s users to access institutional-grade financial products without leaving the blockchain ecosystem.
Beyond reserves, World Liberty Financial plans to embed Ondo’s tokenized securities from its newly launched Ondo Global Markets, a platform designed to provide access to a wide range of tokenized stocks and bonds.
Through this integration, users can borrow, lend, and trade tokenized assets, with the goal of bringing Wall Street-like financial services to decentralized finance.
“Our collaboration with Ondo Finance marks a major step forward in aligning traditional financial systems with blockchain innovation. By integrating Ondo’s tokenized assets, we’re providing our network with access to traditional financial markets and new yield opportunities, making DeFi more powerful and accessible than ever,” said Donald Trump Jr.
The announcement follows Ondo Finance’s recent expansion, including the launch of Ondo Global Markets on February 5. The platform offers on-chain exposure to U.S. stocks, bonds, and ETFs.

A day later, the company unveiled Ondo Chain, a dedicated Layer 1 blockchain built to facilitate institutional-grade financial markets on-chain.
Following its Ondo Summit, Ondo Finance’s total value locked (TVL) surged to $650 million, up from $192 million a year ago.
This expansion has contributed to a broader rise in tokenized RWA adoption, with the top 15 RWA protocols now holding a combined TVL of $8.61 billion, according to DeFiLlama.
WLF Buys $470K in ONDO Tokens Amid Ondo Chain Launch and Real World Assets Focus
On the day Ondo Finance launched its blockchain, World Liberty Financial purchased $470,000 worth of ONDO tokens.
This move aligns with the company’s broader strategy of accumulating digital assets and expanding its presence in the DeFi space.
Co-founder Chase Herro revealed the firm’s plan to build a “strategic reserve” with its token holdings.
The platform also introduced the “Macro Strategy” fund, focusing on Bitcoin (BTC), Ether (ETH), and other key cryptocurrencies shaping the future of finance.
As announced on February 11, the fund looks to strengthen blockchain projects and integrate traditional and decentralized finance.
World Liberty Financial seeks to enhance financial stability and seize emerging DeFi opportunities by diversifying across tokenized assets.
The firm has actively invested in blockchain, forging partnerships with Chainlink and Ethena Labs.
As a DeFi platform, it offers borrowing, lending, and investing without banks. It focuses on stablecoin adoption and U.S.-pegged assets.
The company’s holdings include $208.61 million in ETH, $62.3 million in WBTC, and stablecoins like USDC and USDT, maintaining liquidity while managing market volatility.
