Trump-Backed WLFI’s Token Burn Plan: Will It Save WLFI or Just Smoke & Mirrors?🔥

by

So, the Trump family-backed World Liberty Financial-yes, THAT Trump family-is rolling out a big, fancy token buyback and burn program. Apparently, it’s designed to pump up the token’s value because, well, the WLFI price decided to plunge over 30% like a bungee jumper without a cord just a day after its grand debut. Charming, right?

only fees raked in from WLFI-controlled liquidity pools scattered across Ethereum, BNB Chain, and Solana will be incinerated. Community and third-party liquidity? Untouched, baby.

The grand vision? A magical feedback loop where token prices stabilize-or so they hope-and long-term hodlers merrily watch their holdings slowly get juicier.

“This program removes tokens from circulation held by those fickle flibbertigibbets not committed to WLFI’s glorious future,” says the proposal. Translation: if you’re not in for the long haul, tough luck.

“More usage = more fees = more WLFI burned.” It’s basically math but with crypto sass. 🔄🔥

Oh, and all of these fiery burn ceremonies will be recorded on-chain for maximum transparency and bragging rights.

“We believe the community wants to go full throttle and incinerate 100% of WLFI POL fees,” they add, with the kind of confidence usually reserved for people who buy lottery tickets regularly.

They did consider softer options-splitting fees between treasury and burning or hoarding them for future projects-but nope, they went full scorched earth for “maximum impact.”

Future plans? More buyback and burn fun, plus sniffing around for other revenue streams beyond the cozy confines of POL fees. Ambitious, or desperate. Time will tell.

WLFI proposal: Mixed feelings, like your last family reunion

While some WLFI diehards are nodding along to token burning like it’s the answer to life, others are eye-rolling into their third espresso. Concerns? Oh, plenty.

For starters: no one really knows how much dough these protocol fees are pulling in right now, which makes guessing the burn’s impact about as reliable as a weather forecast on a British summer day.

Also, what if the project’s treasury hits a rough patch and suddenly needs emergency funds? Well, that’s apparently not in the playbook since all POL fees are already promised to the burn bonfire.

And of course, there’s the classic “concentrated power” worry: burning tokens might make some holders ginormous whales, who then scare everyone else off with the threat of a dreaded dump. Fishy business? Possibly.

This won’t work because it will create whales from the burns and eventually some holders positions will be so enormous that nobody wants to buy the coin in fear of getting dumped on by them. From what I’ve seen, WLFI already did plenty of dumping already. Try to fix the dumping.

WLFI price: Still playing hard to get 🥲

As for actual WLFI prices? The burn plan barely perked them up. WLFI slid to a sad intraday low of $0.2106, more than 30% below its September 1 peak of $0.3313.

It had a brief flirtation with hope, rallying over 18% to $0.2497 after the announcement-only to slump back down to about $0.2312 by press time. Groundhog Day stuff.
