Nasdaq-listed ALT5 Sigma Corporation (Nasdaq: ALTS) has confirmed its $1.5 billion financing deal with World Liberty Financial (WLFI). The announcement also unveiled a leadership shake-up that blends high-profile figures from crypto, finance, and politics. The transaction, expected to close today (on August 12, 2025), will establish one of the largest public-company crypto treasuries to date.
Upon completion, Blockstreet CEO Matthew Morgan will become Chief Investment Officer of ALT5, overseeing the firm’s planned WLFI Treasury Strategy.
WLFI Co-Founder and CEO Zach Witkoff will assume the role of Chairman of the Board, while Eric Trump will join as a Director.
WLFI Co-Founder and COO Zak Folkman will serve as a Board observer.
The financing combines a registered direct offering with a concurrent private placement led by WLFI. Once closed, ALT5 will hold approximately 7.5% of the WLFI token supply—valued at $1.5 billion based on the token’s $0.20 market price—alongside the creation of crypto treasury operations. This structure directly links a Nasdaq-listed company to a major stablecoin ecosystem, while subjecting treasury management to public-market oversight.
Morgan said his focus will be on “disciplined treasury management, liquidity, and risk controls that support real-world adoption” to ensure both WLFI’s ecosystem and ALT5’s shareholders benefit.
The move signals a growing convergence between on-chain assets and regulated corporate governance, an intersection that could attract institutional capital.
The deal’s scale positions ALT5 as a pioneer in integrating token-based reserves into a publicly traded corporate balance sheet. Similar strategies by crypto-native companies have drawn both investor enthusiasm and regulatory scrutiny, but proponents argue that transparency requirements for listed companies could strengthen market confidence.
By combining strategic token holdings with a leadership roster featuring crypto entrepreneurs, seasoned investors, and political insiders, ALT5 seems to position itself as a bridge between the digital asset economy and mainstream capital markets.
