A crypto venture connected to the Trump family is quietly preparing for a major pivot—one that could take it from an obscure governance experiment to a publicly traded token with institutional backing.
World Liberty Financial (WLFI), which previously kept its operations low-key, has revealed plans to bring more transparency to its ecosystem. Speaking at the Permissionless Conference in Brooklyn, co-founder Zak Folkman said the project is preparing to release an audit of its USD1 stablecoin, in an effort to build trust among both retail and corporate participants.
Folkman also hinted that WLFI’s internal governance token, which is currently non-transferable and locked within wallets, may soon become tradable. Although no official listing has been announced, the team is reportedly working on enabling liquidity and exchange support.
“We’re listening to the community,” Folkman said. “There’s progress being made behind the scenes.”
The project, which has already distributed over 25 billion WLFI tokens across two private rounds—raising about $550 million—is targeting a total supply of 100 billion tokens. So far, the token has been limited to internal voting functions.
One of the more surprising revelations was the growing interest from publicly traded firms considering WLFI as part of their digital treasury strategy. While few details were shared, the suggestion points to a potential evolution of WLFI into a more mainstream asset.
There’s also a mobile application in the works, though details remain scarce. For now, the project’s focus appears to be on gaining credibility through transparency and enabling open market participation—steps that could mark the beginning of WLFI’s shift from politically themed token to an active player in the stablecoin and DeFi arena.
