A cryptocurrency project led by the family of Donald Trump has entered the Bitcoin mining industry in earnest through a strategic partnership with a Nasdaq-listed mining company.

According to Bloomberg on February 26 (local time), Trump-backed digital asset platform World Liberty Financial has selected Bitcoin (BTC) mining firm CleanSpark as its exclusive mining partner. The collaboration signals that the presidential family has begun to exert direct influence over the mining sector, a core infrastructure of the digital asset ecosystem. CleanSpark plans to allocate 20 megawatts (MW) of mining power to World Liberty Financial in the initial phase of the project.

World Liberty Financial is led primarily by Trump’s sons, Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump. Expanding beyond simple cryptocurrency trading, the project is moving into Bitcoin production, solidifying its crypto-friendly trajectory. CleanSpark will support the initial infrastructure buildout by providing 2,000 latest-generation mining machines at its facilities located in Georgia and Mississippi.

CleanSpark CEO Zach Bradford described the partnership as a significant milestone in broadening the reach of Bitcoin mining. Bradford stated that it would “promote energy-efficient Bitcoin mining in the United States and help strengthen digital asset leadership.” In line with the Trump administration’s deregulatory stance on digital assets, cooperation with publicly listed mining firms is expected to accelerate further.

Market analysts view the presidential family’s entry into the mining business as a decisive signal of the cryptocurrency market’s integration into the institutional sphere. In addition to Bitcoin mining, World Liberty Financial plans to introduce various decentralized finance products, including stablecoin-based lending services. The combination of CleanSpark’s technological capabilities and the Trump family’s brand value is reshaping the business landscape of the crypto industry.

The digital asset mining industry is emerging as a new growth engine for the U.S. economy, backed by technological maturity and political support. The partnership with CleanSpark marks the first step for World Liberty Financial in securing tangible utility in the market. This alliance, combining the capital strength of a publicly listed company with the influence of the presidential family, is expected to bring long-term changes across the industry.
