ALT5 Sigma’s $1.5B funding plan aims to acquire 7.5% of WLFI tokens, launching World Liberty Financial’s crypto treasury strategy.
ALT5 Sigma announces a $1.5 billion funding initiative to fuel World Liberty Financial’s (WLFI) ambitious digital asset reserves strategy. The Nasdaq-listed company is now positioned to expand its crypto holdings with other companies.
The WLFI $1.5 billion Treasury Fund will receive support from ALT5 Sigma
ALT5 Sigma recently announced in a press release that it has executed definitive agreements for issuing and selling up to 200 million shares. This would be accomplished using a concurrent private placement and a registered direct offering. Per share, both offerings were priced at $7.50. The contributions of WLFI tokens from World Liberty Financial entirely funded the private placement.
It is anticipated that the financing, which will conclude on August 12, 2025, will generate approximately $1.5 billion before fees and expenses. The funds that are raised will be utilized to acquire additional WLFI tokens. This would establish ALT5 Sigma’s cryptocurrency treasury operations, settle litigation, pay down debt, and support their ongoing business needs.
The transaction’s exclusive placement agent is A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners. The private placement will be exempt from public registration, whereas the registered direct offering will be conducted under an existing SEC-approved shelf registration. This would restrict the number of resale options available in the United States unless specific criteria are satisfied.
The initiative is a component of WLFI’s overarching objective to establish a substantial crypto reserve through its native token. As previously stated, World Liberty Financial is negotiating with significant institutional investors to create a publicly traded company that concentrates on its holdings. The strategic partnership between the two organizations is underscored by the fundraising objective, which is comparable to ALT5 Sigma’s $1.5 billion plan.
The value of ALTS stock drops
According to data from Yahoo Finance, ALTS stock experienced a 5% decline during the announcement. This indicates a cautious response from the market. This implies that investors are balancing the funding plan’s size against the volatility of the cryptocurrency market as a whole and short-term dilution risks.
A Rise in Corporate Crypto Treasuries
ALT5 Sigma’s move follows a growing trend of publicly traded companies using digital assets as core reserve holdings. Strategy, led by Michael Saylor, now controls over 628,000 BTC worth roughly $71 billion. They also recently filed a $4.2 billion offering to acquire even more Bitcoin.
Japanese investment firm Metaplanet has also reinforced its Bitcoin position, purchasing an additional 463 BTC for $53.7 million. This brought its total to nearly $1.78 billion. Meanwhile, Switzerland’s Sygnum Bank and Galaxy Digital have partnered with Mill City Ventures to manage a $450 million SUI treasury, signifying the most significant reserve in public markets for the Sui blockchain.
In another example of treasury diversification, Nasdaq-listed VivoPower revealed plans to purchase $100 million worth of Ripple shares, increasing its exposure to XRP at an implied cost of $0.47 per token.
