Aqua 1 purchased $100 million of World Liberty tokens, creating questions over the source of the capital and how the investment was financed. World Liberty said it followed all applicable laws and regulations. The transaction also financially benefited the family of World Liberty co-founder Zach Witkoff. World Liberty spokesperson David Wachsman said the company complied with applicable laws and maintained a compliance program that “meets or exceeds industry standards.” For World Liberty, the issue could become more important as the project expands and seeks relationships with regulated institutions.
