The World Liberty Financial (WLFI) token, linked to the Trump family, has shown a significant price drop since its launch. This article examines the reasons and implications of this event.
Price Drop of WLFI
The WLFI token has lost over 40% of its value since its launch on Monday. Despite a large-scale burn of 47 million tokens aimed at reducing supply and increasing the value of remaining tokens, the price situation has not improved.
Losses Among Major Investors
There are significant losses among large investors. One major holder, wallet 0x432, lost over $1.6 million after closing a long position in WLFI. The investor reopened the long position just 15 hours after closing a previous trade with a profit of $915,000. Out of more than 85,000 pre-sale participants, 60% still hold the token while 29% sold off their holdings completely.
Institutional Strategy Shift
The current situation with WLFI reflects broader trends in whale behavior during 2025. Professional traders are experiencing heightened volatility risks. Recent analysis shows institutional investors now prioritize diversified exposure over concentrated positions in single tokens. This shift signifies a maturation from speculative trading toward fundamental value assessment.
The decline of WLFI and associated losses among major investors highlight shifting trends in the cryptocurrency landscape, including a focus on compliance and real use cases.
