The cryptocurrency market is no stranger to volatility, and as prices dip, savvy investors and projects are seizing the moment to make bold moves. World Liberty Financial, a crypto project backed by Donald Trump’s family, is doubling down on crypto with fresh purchases.
Meanwhile, Bitcoin Pepe, a meme coin with ambitious plans, is drawing attention from across the ecosystem.
These developments come at a time when the broader crypto market is experiencing a downturn, presenting what some see as a golden opportunity.
World Liberty Financial adds to portfolio with Avalanche, Mantle
Although World Liberty Financial is significantly down on its investments in various cryptocurrencies, its doubling down on it. The project scooped Avalanche (AVAX) and Mantle (MNT) tokens for over $4 million. Specifically, WLFI acquired 103,911 AVAX tokens and 2.45 million MNT tokens for $2 million each.
These purchases add to WLFI’s already substantial portfolio, which totals around $340 million invested across 11 different cryptocurrencies.
As aggressive as World Liberty is, it is currently down more than $115 million, with the largest part of the portfolio that’s underwater being unrealized losses of $88 million on Ethereum (ETH).
However, WLFI’s decision to double down on AVAX and MNT suggests confidence in these tokens as potential hedges or long-term winners.
Bitcoin Pepe: Solana on Bitcoin
While WLFI’s purchases signal a calculated strategy, another project capturing attention is Bitcoin Pepe.
This meme coin blends meme culture and Bitcoin’s iconic status, with this enhanced by the speed of Solana. In short, Bitcoin Pepe is building Solana on Bitcoin. It’s unveiling introduced the first and only meme ICO on Bitcoin.
BPEP’s presale, under the PEP-20 standard, has investor interest piqued. That’s because Bitcoin Pepe eyes a layer 2 network on Bitcoin.
Interest in BTC among investors remains largely bullish despite the recent sell-off. This same outlook cascades to BPEP as traders position for the next big move.
What’s next for Bitcoin Pepe?
The roadmap hints at listings on major platforms, staking options, and potential NFT integrations—features designed to sustain hype and engagement.

Notably, meme coins thrive during market recoveries, which is why investors seeking an opportunity see the current dip as one that offers just that. It’s likely the outlook that’s driving World Liberty’s buying spree, including the latest tokens AVAX and MNT.
That means that projects like Bitcoin Pepe, still in presale, may offer great entry points. Buzzing across the market for what could be next for Bitcoin and Solana also has investors flocking to Bitcoin Pepe.
Historically, meme coins tap into the speculative fervor that often follows a market bottom, where risk-tolerant traders chase the next viral token. Bitcoin Pepe has so far raised over $5 million from early bird investors.
Currently, joining the presale in stage 7 offers a buying opportunity of $0.0281.
In the next stage, BPEP will rise to $0.0295 – continuing with this pace of price increments until it hits the final stage.
