J. Benjamin Greenberg, a former Circle employee and shareholder, sued Donald Trump, World Liberty Financial, and Steve Witkoff over alleged crypto corruption. The complaint says a member of the United Arab Emirates ruling family paid $500 million into World Liberty Financial, while an Abu Dhabi investment fund provided $2 billion through the USD1 stablecoin. Greenberg also alleges that the president gave Emirati leaders access to advanced artificial intelligence chips and pardoned a convicted felon in exchange for the investments.

Trump, World Liberty Financial, and the White House have denied any conflict of interest.
