World Liberty Financial Inc., a Trump family crypto venture, is facing an investor revolt that includes billionaire backer Justin Sun, who accused the project of secretly building controls that let insiders freeze token holders’ funds.

Sun, who poured tens of millions of dollars into World Liberty, called the project “a trap masquerading as a door” in a post on X on Sunday.
