Binance Lists Trump-Linked WLFI Token, Opening First Spot Market
Binance has become the first major exchange to list World Liberty Financial (WLFI), the Trump-family-affiliated DeFi token, with trading set to begin Monday afternoon UTC. The listing marks WLFI’s transition from a non-transferable presale token to a fully tradable asset.
Deposits are already active, while withdrawals will start Tuesday. Binance has assigned WLFI a “seed tag,” indicating it is an innovative but high-risk token.
Previously, WLFI tokens could not be transferred, a restriction designed for compliance during the presale. The Binance listing removes these limitations, enabling full transfers and opening centralized exchange trading for the first time.
Following Binance, South Korea’s Upbit confirmed plans to list WLFI as well. On Binance, users must complete quizzes acknowledging the token’s high volatility and risk. WLFI will launch simultaneously on Ethereum, Binance Smart Chain, and Solana.
WLFI futures debuted last week on the Hyperliquid decentralized exchange, where traders heavily shorted the token, causing its implied valuation to drop from $44 billion to $24 billion within hours.
The Binance listing provides the first spot market for WLFI, marking a key milestone in its evolution from presale-only tokens to widely tradable digital assets. The token gained additional visibility after Eric Trump and Binance CEO Changpeng “CZ” Zhao appeared together at BTC Asia in Hong Kong.
