Donald Trump's DeFi project has raised approximately $11.5 million in its initial token sale, significantly short of its $300 million goal. The project, named World Liberty Financial, has seen slow progress, with only about 4% of the planned offering sold. Despite running for a full day, the token sale has not met expectations, with comparisons being drawn to other crypto projects that have raised higher amounts in shorter timeframes. Earlier reports indicated that the project had raised $8 million, $9 million, and $10 million at various points during the sale.
