🚨 WLFI called it "FUD." The market called it -12%.

WLFI's token crashed 12% to an all-time low after the Trump-linked project defended borrowing $75M against its own governance tokens on a protocol its adviser co-founded — plus quantum-safe bitcoin without a soft fork, and stablecoin volumes projected to hit $719 trillion by 2035. ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Friday, April 10, 2026 Trump-backed WLFI token drops 12% to record lows after team defends multi-million lending position WLFI hit its lowest price since its 2025 launch after the Trump-linked project publicly defended using 5 billion of its own governance tokens as collateral to borrow $75M in stablecoins on Dolomite — a protocol co-founded by a WLFI adviser.

The catch: each transaction costs up to $200 in off-chain GPU computation and can't travel through the normal network or the Lightning Network. Designed as a last-resort emergency measure, it contrasts with BIP-360, the long-term soft fork proposal that has no implementation timeline and could take years to activate.

Two macro catalysts could push that figure toward $1.5 quadrillion: the transfer of an estimated $100 trillion from Baby Boomers to crypto-native Millennials and Gen Z, and deepening point-of-sale integration that could make stablecoin payments as frictionless as a card swipe.
