    World Liberty Financial, a cryptocurrency venture co-founded by U.S. President Donald Trump and his sons, said it filed a defamation lawsuit on Monday, May 4, against Hong Kong-based crypto entrepreneur Justin Sun.

    In a copy of the complaint posted on X, World Liberty accused Sun of launching a “public smear campaign” that included what it said were false claims. The project also alleged Sun carried out unauthorized activity with his tokens, including transferring them to the crypto exchange Binance.

    The filing is the latest escalation in a dispute between the two sides. In April, Sun sued World Liberty Financial, alleging the company illegally froze tokens he had bought and secretly implemented tools to prevent their sale asourceser they became tradable in September 2025. World Liberty said in its lawsuit that its ability to freeze tokens was disclosed in its Terms of Sale.

    Sun dismissed World Liberty’s new lawsuit as a “meritless PR stunt,” and said he planned to fight the case in court.

    Donald Trump Jr. reposted World Liberty’s thread on X urging readers to review it, while World Liberty CEO and co-founder Zach Witkoff said he looked forward to the truth coming out in court.
