Trump-Backed WLFI Token Set to Launch — Investment Bank Warns Retail Investors Face Major Risk
TradingKey – With just four days to go, the Trump family’s crypto project World Liberty Finance (WLFI) is scheduled to begin spot trading on September 1.
According to GlobeNewswire, major exchanges including Binance, OKX, and Hyperliquid have already opened pre-market perpetual contract trading for WLFI, with the token currently priced at $0.25.
WLFI has a total supply of 100 billion tokens, but only a small portion will be available for trading at launch. The initial float comes from a 20% unlock of the 25 billion tokens sold during the first and second public rounds — meaning just 5 billion WLFI will enter circulation. Tokens held by the founding team, advisors, and strategic partners will remain locked.
This low float could artificially inflate WLFI’s market price, similar to what happened with the TRUMP token, which saw a dramatic collapse of nearly 90% from its peak.
Analysts at investment bank Compass Point have issued a warning: “If exchanges list WLFI at an excessively high valuation, it could repeat the TRUMP token scenario — leading to significant losses for retail investors.”
