- The World Liberty Foundation is reversing its stance on the WLFI token, now planning to make it transferable.
- The project announced the change on social media, indicating that trading the token may soon be possible.
- Details on the timeline and technical aspects of the transferability remain undisclosed.
The Trump-affiliated World Liberty Foundation appears to be reversing course on a core promise of its crypto project — making its WLFI token transferrable after initially making it strictly non-transferable (and hence non-tradable).
“You asked to make $WLFI transferable — we heard you,” the project’s official X account posted late Wednesday. “The team is working behind the scenes to make it happen. Big news coming soon.”

WLFI, a token tied to the Trump family’s branding and part of a broader push to monetize political fandom via crypto, was distributed to supporters earlier this year who participated in a presale.
But with Wednesday’s update, the team is hinting at a pivot toward enabling trading — a move that would allow WLFI holders to speculate on the token’s price or sell their holdings on secondary markets.
No timeline or technical details were shared, and the project’s broader utility — or legal standing — remains unclear.
