Highlights
The WLFI token governance vote has been passed, making the World Liberty Financial token tradable on the market. It is a landmark change in the ecosystem, as it transforms the system into an open one that allows for wider participation.
According to the voting website, the proposal to make the token tradable has passed. 99.94% of holders voted in favor of the proposal to make the token tradeable, while only 0.06% voted against the proposal
Before this vote passed, the WLFI token could not be traded, and access to it was limited. The switch opens new utility and subjects the token to broader market forces. A major aspect of the proposal is the gradual release of tokens held by early supporters.
A few of these holdings will be available for trading right away. However, the rest will undergo an independent community-based vote. The proposed staged release structure is to limit both supply and market shocks. Top crypto exchanges, such as Binance, have yet to announce whether they will list the token or not.
Right now, the tokens for founders, core team members, and advisors will not be available to them during this phase. Their allocations will remain locked under a longer-term schedule. The WLFI token team says this shows commitment to the protocol’s long-term growth.
The WLFI token trading proposal went live on July 4 this year with the goal of enabling community voting for broader market access. However, the proposal was submitted on July 9, 2025, by the WLFI token team through its official governance portal.
According to the project’s team, the decision was driven by increased demand from users and partners to open up the network. They believe that it is time to increase the token’s reach and usage.
As tradability is authorized, the team is proceeding with the next steps right away. The WLFI team will use identity verification provider Sumsub to screen the early holders for KYC purposes.
Eligible wallets will then receive distribution based on prior commitments. Community governance will deepen from here. The new system allows token holders to vote on emissions, incentive structures, and treasury policies. The tradability vote serves as the first in a series of decisions that shift control to the broader WLFI token community.
Meanwhile, TRM Labs, a blockchain analytics company specializing in transaction monitoring, will perform security and compliance maintenance. This is a move by the token’s team to comply with the requirements regarding traceability and regulatory safety.
This is a milestone in the history of World Liberty Financial, a crypto project that is tightly connected with the economic vision of the president of the USA, Donald Trump. This transition is considered by the WLFI token team as the beginning of a more democratic and decentralized finance system.
