Revo Partner Rob Frasca post from Mar-a-Lago
2/18/26 đĽ Live from Mar-a-Lago â World Liberty Financial Forum Daily Update Just walked out of one of the most consequential rooms Iâve been in. Nearly 400 of the most influential leaders in global finance, technology, and policy converged at Mar-a-Lago today for the inaugural World Liberty Forum, hosted by World Liberty Financial. The energy was unmistakable. This wasnât a crypto conference. This was the establishment walking through the door. The room: Goldman Sachs CEO David Solomon. Nasdaq CEO Adena Friedman. NYSE President Lynn Martin. Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong. CFTC Chairman Michael Selig. FIFA President. Senators. Regulators. Fortune 500 executives overseeing trillions in capital. And yes â Nicki Minaj. The headline: The Trump Organizationâs $300M tokenized luxury resort in the Maldives - 80 ultra-luxury overwater villas, built in partnership with Dar Global, tokenized from the development phase. Not after completion. From inception. Investors can buy digital shares in the project before a single villa is built. Transparency. Liquidity. Special access. This is what development-phase tokenization looks like when a major global brand puts its name behind it. The quote that landed hardest: Eric Trump â âWe are on the one yard line. Itâs coming hard and itâs coming fast.â He wasnât wrong. The announcement that matters most for institutional adoption: Apex Group â overseeing $3.5 trillion in assets â is piloting USD1 as a payment rail for subscriptions, redemptions, and distributions across its tokenized fund ecosystem. Theyâre also exploring listing WLFI USD1 tokenized assets on the London Stock Exchangeâs Digital Market Infrastructure platform.
