The WLFI token, linked to the Trump family, approves a large-scale buyback and burn proposal with over 99% support. After plunging 40% since launch, the community aims to restore confidence and boost long-term value.
The WLFI (World Liberty Financial) token, backed by the Trump family, has taken a decisive step to counter its sharp decline following the official launch on September 1, 2025. After losing nearly 40% of its value in just three days, the community overwhelmingly approved a governance proposal (with 99.8% voting in favor) to implement a large-scale token buyback and burn strategy.
Under this plan, 100% of the liquidity fees generated by the protocol across Ethereum, BNB Chain, and Solana will be used to repurchase WLFI tokens on the open market and then permanently burn them. The goal is to reduce circulating supply, creating potential upward pressure on the remaining tokens.
It is worth noting that, despite an initial burn of 47 million WLFI on September 3, the price failed to stabilize at that time. However, analysts now suggest that the newly approved plan could enhance investor confidence and pave the way for gradual recovery.
Nevertheless, the actual impact will depend on several factors. On one hand, the effectiveness of the program will hinge on how much liquidity fee revenue the protocol can generate to sustain regular buybacks. On the other hand, transparent execution will be critical, as the market may otherwise perceive this strategy as a temporary fix rather than a long-term solution.
Ultimately, the WLFI initiative highlights a clear commitment to community-driven governance and deflationary tokenomics, with the hope of reversing its rough start. Now, all eyes are on whether this move can transform early skepticism into renewed momentum and attract broader investor interest.
