WLFI Rejects Media Allegations

WLFI criticized major media outlets for what it called misleading reports about its business activities. It accused sections of the media of trying to damage the reputation of the cryptocurrency industry and suggested that the coverage was agenda-driven.

The project specifically called out Bloomberg and The Wall Street Journal for publishing what it described as unverified claims.

However, it did not mention which report triggered its response, nor did it reference Binance anywhere in its statement.

A Vague but Firm Response

Although WLFI avoided directly addressing the allegations, it highlighted its partnerships with leading blockchain projects. The post ended by advising followers to ignore “clickbait” and rely only on official WLFI updates for accurate information.
