World Liberty Hits Back at Justin Sun's Defamation Claims, Alleging 'Misconduct'

In a dramatic turn of events, Eric Trump, co-founder of World Liberty, has gone from praising Justin Sun on social media to dismissing his lawsuit as a 'desperate' deflection. The lawsuit, filed by Sun in the Northern District of California, accuses World Liberty Financial of illegally freezing approximately four billion $WLFI tokens valued at around $1 billion. World Liberty's response, issued on Tuesday, vows to continue protecting its users and accuses Sun of 'misconduct', although the company has not provided specific details. According to Sun's complaint, World Liberty has made various accusations against him, including blaming him for the 40% price crash of $WLFI on its first day of trading, which Sun denies. The complaint also mentions World Liberty's objections to Sun's $100 million purchase of $TRUMP tokens and allegations of prohibited transfers and inadequate know-your-customer documentation. World Liberty has yet to formally respond to Sun's lawsuit.
