Well, slap my knee and call me astonished! On the blessed day of September 1, the good folks at World Liberty Financial (WLFI) decided to unleash their Token Generation Event (TGE), setting loose 20% of their 100 billion tokens. And who’s backing this wild ride? None other than the man with the golden comb-over, Donald Trump himself. 🦅 Crypto whales, led by the ever-charming Justin Sun (the brain behind Tron, TRX), dove headfirst into the fray, claiming their vested tokens like kids in a candy store.
Now, ol’ Justin Sun didn’t just dip his toes-he cannonballed into the pool, claiming a cool 600 million WLFI tokens, worth a jaw-dropping $200 million at the TGE. That’s 3% of the 20 billion unlocked tokens, making him a big fish in this crypto pond. 🤑 And get this: Arkham Intelligence reckons he’s sitting on nearly $1 billion worth of the stuff, acquired from who-knows-where. Before the TGE, WLFI was already trading like hotcakes in derivatives markets, surging 500% just before the big event. Talk about a gold rush!
🚨 JUSTIN SUN JUST CLAIMED $178 MILLION $WLFI 🚨
Yep, our man Justin snagged his 20% unlock-nearly $200 million worth. And that’s just the tip of the iceberg; he’s hoarding $891.2 million in WLFI! He swears he’s not selling anytime soon. 🤔

Justin, bless his heart, has sworn on his crypto fortune that he’s “not selling anytime soon,” claiming the project’s “long-term vision is too powerful.” 🤓 Fully aligned with the mission, he says. And because one promise isn’t enough, he’s also vowed to pump $200 million into the USD1 stablecoin on Tron. USD1, mind you, is pegged to the good ol’ US dollar and tied to World Liberty Financial. Talk about hedging your bets!
Excited to share my thoughts on $WLFI – I truly believe this will be one of the biggest and most important projects in crypto. 🦅
No plans to sell our unlocked tokens anytime soon. The long-term vision here is too powerful, and I’m fully aligned with the mission.…

WLFI Price Analysis (Or: How to Watch Paint Dry, Crypto Edition)
According to CoinMarketCap, WLFI was trading at $0.2453 per token just hours after the TGE. With a circulating supply of 24.66 billion tokens, Trump’s pet project boasts a $6.05 billion market cap and a $24.53 billion fully diluted value (FDV). 🤑 Before the unlock, WLFI hit nearly $0.40 per token, but it’s since dropped 38%. Still, it’s up 7% in the last 24 hours, so… yay? The market’s eating it up, with $2.57 billion in volume-41.5% of its market cap.

But let’s not forget, folks, this is crypto-the Wild West of finance. WLFI’s in a highly speculative market, with risks like price volatility, regulatory scrutiny (thanks, Trump!), and selling pressure from unlocked tokens. Investors, proceed with caution, or you might end up holding the bag. 🧨 Just look at Pi Network, which dropped 10% despite a network upgrade, with 420 million PI tokens flooding centralized exchanges. Yikes!
