Published by

World Liberty Financial has sold an additional 5.9 billion WLFI tokens to private investors, adding to more than 550 million dollars already raised. At the same time, about 80 percent of early investor holdings remain locked, preventing exits. Reports suggest these tokens may come from internal allocations, with proceeds linked to founder-affiliated entities. A new governance proposal could extend the lockup period to at least two years, followed by gradual token releases, raising concerns about liquidity and transparency.
