Trump’s crypto website crashed after its token went on sale


World Liberty Financial released

Former President Donald Trump’s cryptocurrency project, World Liberty Financial, launched its token sale on Tuesday — and its website crashed shortly afterward. “The team wasn’t expecting this level of interest,” Peng said, adding that the website received 72 million unique visits in the first hour after the token launched. Despite Trump and his associates’ promotion of World Liberty Financial as a tool to help unbanked and de-banked people, only those who meet the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) accredited investor requirements can purchase WLFI.
