WLFI Price Unchanged as Trump Stake Locks Until 2028
cryptocurrency.com.tr reports that World Liberty Financial has implemented two key structural changes affecting token supply and governance. Donald Trump’s stake in the project is now contractually locked until May 2028, removing those tokens from immediate circulation. Starting October 1, holders can earn voting rewards by locking their WLFI for 180 days and participating in governance.
Despite these developments, the token price remained static at $0.0584 on September 19, 2026. This valuation translates to approximately 0.051 euros and shows almost no change from the previous day. Over the past week, WLFI gained 2.3 percent, while the 30-day view shows a 4 percent decline.
The token recently hit an all-time low of $0.0483 on September 11, 2026, before recovering to sit 21 percent above that floor. Trading volume over 24 hours reached roughly $30 million, with a market capitalization of $1.9 billion placing it in 54th position. The price remains significantly down, sitting about 82 percent below its September 2025 all-time high of $0.331.
How the market reacted
Whalio's own Binance spot order flow for WLFI, measured when this story was written up on 20 September 2026. Not the outlet's figures.
Whalio’s Binance spot data shows WLFI trading at $0.5850 with a 24-hour buy ratio of 46.2 percent, indicating a near-even split between buyers and sellers. Short-term pressure leans slightly bearish, with the 1-hour buy ratio at 43.3 percent and the 4-hour ratio dropping to 41.6 percent. Volume delta confirms this weakness, showing net selling of $8,283 in the last hour and $123,412 over four hours. Over the full day, net volume delta sits at -$355,841, with cumulative selling pressure (CVD) closing at -$351,786. Buyers were active for only five out of the 24 hours, suggesting that selling pressure dominated the trading session. The buy ratio measures the proportion of trades executed by buyers, while volume delta tracks the net value of those trades, revealing that sellers outweighed buyers in this period.
The latest daily buy ratio of 43.5% sits at the 10th percentile of the last 322 days, against a median of 47.8% - weaker buying than most days.
Was that an ordinary day?
The same Binance spot measurements for WLFI, averaged over the days leading up to the story.
Comparing today’s activity to the preceding week reveals a consistent pattern of subdued trading. The 24-hour spot volume of $4,694,474 is notably lower than the weekly average, sitting at just 0.68 times the typical daily volume. This indicates that today was an unusually quiet day for WLFI, with significantly less capital changing hands than usual. The 7-day average buy ratio of 45.9 percent is nearly identical to today’s 46.2 percent, showing no shift in sentiment. Furthermore, there were zero days of net buying over the entire past week, with total volume delta for the period reaching -$4,281,994. This confirms that the current lack of buying pressure is part of a broader, week-long trend rather than an isolated event.
