WLFI briefly hit a $46B fully diluted valuation shortly after its Mon. launch.
27.4B WLFI are in circulation (27% of the total 100B supply).
“This isn’t some memecoin, it’s the governance backbone of a real ecosystem changing how money moves,” Donald Trump Jr., Trump’s eldest son, said.
It’s a governance token with no equity-like rights.
World Liberty Financial spent 2M USD1 to buy 6.5M WLFI at $0.308 within an hour of launch, Arkham data shows.
WLFI is pitching a liquidity-funded buyback-and-burn to restore confidence after its rocky debut.
