WLFI Finds Support After Heavy Losses
World Liberty Financial’s WLFI token, backed by the Trump family, has become one of the most talked-about assets in crypto. After a chaotic launch that included a blockbuster presale, a major exchange debut, and a near 50% decline from its peak, WLFI is now finding buyers again.
At last check on Sunday, WLFI was trading near $0.22, up about 13% in 24 hours after rebounding from lows of $0.1908. The token had reached an all-time high of $0.46 on September 1, 2025, but has since lost nearly half its value.
Trader Sees Upside Potential
Crypto trader Michaël van de Poppe is one of the most notable voices calling for a comeback. He said he is “actively trading WLFI” and sees its volatility as a “trader’s dream.”
I’m personally actively trading $WLFI.
I love the volatility. Lots of volume to generate on this one.
Uptrend has started.
I’d personally be interested to be buying the dip around $0.21, if it’s provided.
If trend remains intact –> $0.30 is next. pic.twitter.com/JV8EfOqGDm

Van de Poppe highlighted $0.21 as a potential buy zone if prices dip again and suggested $0.30 as the next upside target if momentum holds. He believes rising volume and active price swings are creating the right conditions for short-term bullish trades.
From Presale to Major Exchanges
WLFI’s journey began with presale rounds at $0.015 in October 2024 and $0.05 in January 2025, raising about $550 million from over 85,000 investors. Nearly all holders approved for trading, and the token launched on September 1, 2025.
WLFI debuted on major exchanges including Binance, OKX, Coinbase, and Kraken, opening near $0.30–$0.33 before spiking to $0.46. Since then, the price has been turbulent, but current trading suggests a support base forming around $0.19.
Justin Sun Controversy Fuels Turbulence
Adding to the drama was the involvement of Justin Sun, founder of Tron and an early WLFI investor. Sun put in $30 million in November 2024, a stake that grew to about $75 million by launch.
Blockchain data later revealed that a wallet tied to Sun transferred about $9 million in WLFI to an exchange shortly after trading began, sparking suspicions of market manipulation.
In response, World Liberty Financial blacklisted Sun’s wallet on September 3, 2025. This move froze nearly 595 million unlocked tokens worth over $100 million, as well as an additional 2.4 billion locked tokens.
Looking Ahead
Despite the controversy and steep drop from its highs, WLFI has attracted traders looking to play its volatility. With support forming above $0.19 and resistance levels being tested, analysts like van de Poppe see the potential for short-term gains if the momentum continues.
For now, WLFI remains both one of the most controversial and closely watched tokens in the market, balancing high risk with equally high attention from investors.
