The World Liberty Financial (WLFI) project, a cryptocurrency project linked to U.S. President Donald Trump and his family, has proposed making its WLFI token tradable.
🇺🇸 On this Independence Day, we’re making history.
The proposal to make $WLFI tradable is now live. Crypto is coming home — and there’s no better day to let freedom ring.
Happy 4th of July from your friends at WLFI and from the new crypto capital of the world. 🌎

If this proposal is approved, It could unlock early supporters’ holdings while keeping team and advisor allocations locked. The decision now rests with the community, with voting underway to determine the token’s future.
This proposal will help the DeFi project transition from a closed ecosystem to an open, community-driven platform.
The proposal emphasizes decentralization, allowing token holders to vote on future unlocks, emissions, and treasury management to develop true community governance.
However, the phased implementation of the unlocking structure also raises questions about the market impact. Early supporters could soon sell portions of their holdings, while team tokens remain locked to “demonstrate long-term commitment.”
As World Liberty Financial is linked to POTUS, its success or failure could influence public and institutional sentiment toward politically aligned crypto ventures.
The WLFI Team writes: “This is a defining moment for World Liberty Financial. The foundation has been laid, the community is growing, and we’re ready to move forward. Launching WLFI as a tradable token brings us one step closer to building a more open, transparent, and powerful financial system. Let’s build it together.”
Legal Challenges for World Liberty Financial (WLFI)
Since its inception, World Liberty Financial (WLFI) has been a hotbed for controversies due to its connections with U.S. President Donald Trump.
Earlier, U.S. Senators Elizabeth Warren and Jeff Merkley asked World Liberty Financial (WLFI) to keep and share records about its USD1 stablecoin. The senators, who oversee banking and housing policies, want details on how the company communicated with federal agencies about this cryptocurrency.
They wrote in a letter: “In March 2025, WLF announced its plan to launch USD1, ‘the stablecoin your portfolio’s been waiting for. The launch of a stablecoin directly tied to a sitting President who stands to benefit financially from the stablecoin’s success is itself an unprecedented conflict of interest, presenting significant threats to our financial system.”
The Senators are investigating potential conflicts of interest, such as World Liberty Financial’s deep links to Donald Trump, including his title as “Chief Crypto Advocate” on its website, and a Trump-linked entity controlling 60% ownership and 75% of token revenues.
Critics have raised concerns that the US President, his family, and associates may be improperly profiting from the venture while leveraging political influence.
