According to blockchain analytics firm <a href=\"https:\/\/intel.arkm.com\/explorer\/entity\/worldlibertyfi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Arkham Intelligence<\/a>, WLFI deposited close to 2 billion of its own tokens into the Dolomite lending protocol and borrowed more than $31 million in stablecoins against them.<\/p>\n<p>The project now accounts for roughly 55% of Dolomite\u2019s total liquidity \u2014 a concentration that has raised eyebrows among observers tracking the platform\u2019s exposure.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier transactions pointed in a similar direction. Reports indicate WLFI put up $14 million worth of its in-house stablecoin, USD1, to borrow $11.4 million USDC in February.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/x\/q5dr77yb\/\" width=\"1598\" height=\"875\"><\/p>\n<p>Another $12.5 million in USD1 was moved directly to Coinbase Prime, bypassing the lending system entirely. In total, on-chain data shows the project used approximately 5 billion of its self-issued tokens to pull in around $75 million in outside <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fxstreet.com\/cryptocurrencies\/news\/world-liberty-financial-rebuts-wlfi-markets-lending-concerns-amid-rising-scrutiny-202604102219\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">liquidity<\/a> \u2014 a structure critics have compared to circular financing.<\/p>\n<p>Token Price Slides As Pressure Mounts<\/p>\n<p>The market has not been kind. WLFI\u2019s token dropped below $0.08 and has shed more than 20% over the past 30 days. With the USD1 lending pool running at near-full capacity, users looking to withdraw face tightening conditions.<\/p>\n<p>Reports also note that 3 billion WLFI tokens were moved during the first week of April, adding to the unease.<\/p>\n<p>Sun ended his public statement with a demand: unlock the tokens, and operate with transparency. Whether the team acts on that \u2014 or responds at all \u2014 remains to be seen.<\/p>\n<p><em>Featured image from ForkLog, chart from TradingView<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A pool with 93% utilization and shrinking exit options is one of the more uncomfortable details buried in the growing controversy around World Liberty Financial \u2014 the crypto project connected to US President Donald Trump that is now fighting accusations of deception from one of its own biggest backers.
