Crypto Frenzy Explodes as Trump’s WLFI Nears $1B Before Token Unlock Madness!

Ah, the world spins madly on, and here we stand watching as the Trump clan’s shiny World Liberty Financial token flirts shamelessly with a staggering one billion dollars in open interest, mere hours before the grand unlocking spectacle. Because who doesn’t love a good countdown to chaos? ⏳💥

The fever pitch hit early Monday, with derivative contracts for WLFI swelling to a gleeful $950 million before settling down a bit to a modest $887 million. A tidy 45

Trading volume has catapulted like a bottle rocket on the Fourth of July – soaring over 535

Meanwhile, WLFI itself plummets from its dizzying 40-cent peak a week ago to a humbler 34 cents – a classic dip that makes one wonder if everyone’s just pretending to be calm before diving headlong into the frenzy.

Exchanges like Kraken and Binance are rolling out the red carpet, ready to list WLFI – once a humble governance token for an Ethereum-based exchange and lending scene that sounds like a financial soap opera waiting to happen.

The company, rather boldly, raised a princely sum of $550 million through token sales. October’s sale of 20 billion tokens at 1.5 cents each scored $300 million, exclusively offered to accredited investors in the U.S., because exclusivity is the spice of life.

Not content to pause, they immediately launched another round at $0.05 per token – a 230

And to put a cherry atop this crypto sundae, none other than US President Donald Trump himself is crowned “Chief Crypto Advocate” of World Liberty, while his sons Barron, Eric, and Donald Jr. strut their stuff as “Web3 Ambassadors.” Oh yes, a family affair, with a company tied to the clan pocketing 75
