Eric Trump, co-founder of World Liberty Financial (WLFI), defended the company against a lawsuit filed by Justin Sun, the founder of the Tron cryptocurrency. In a post on social media platform X, Trump described the lawsuit as 'ridiculous' and mocked Sun's previous purchase of a duct-taped banana artwork for $6 million. Co-founder Zach Witkoff echoed Trump's sentiments, labeling Sun's claims as meritless and a distraction from his own alleged misconduct. Sun's lawsuit, filed in a California federal court, accuses WLFI of having a flawed governance structure that allows unilateral asset freezing. This legal dispute follows Sun's wallet being blacklisted after transferring over $9 million worth of WLFI tokens to an unknown address. The ongoing tensions between Sun and the Trump family-backed cryptocurrency platform reflect a significant rift in the crypto community.
