For example, Tron founder Justin Sun also purchased $30 million of the asset. World Liberty Financial is developing a DeFi  lending and borrowing platform, and also issues a U.S. dollar stablecoin named USD1.<\/p>\n<p>The WLFI token was designed to give holders the right to participate in the protocol&#8217;s governance and decision-making.

Some tokens that were sold during the presale will unlock at trading launch, while the rest await a second community vote to decide their release schedule. Tokens held by founders, the team and advisors will remain locked longer than early supporter allocations to underscore long-term commitment to the project, the proposal said.<\/p>\n<p>Final unlock timing and eligibility criteria will be determined later, it added.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Read more: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.coindesk.com\/markets\/2025\/06\/26\/world-liberty-makes-narrative-u-turn-says-wlfi-token-will-become-tradable-soon\">World Liberty Makes Narrative U-Turn, Says WLFI Token Will Become Tradable Soon<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The governance token of World Liberty Financial (WLFI), a decentralized finance (DeFi) protocol backed by U.S. President Donald Trump and his family, may soon become tradable on exchanges after a community vote concluded on Wednesday.
