With crypto regulation garnering significant attention and Bitcoin surpassing $120,000, speculation is growing that President Trump’s World Liberty Financial DeFi project may decide to make its WLFI crypto token available for trading.

Politicians in the US have dubbed this week ‘Crypto Week USA’ due to the three pivotal pieces of digital asset legislation set to be discussed in the House of Representatives this week. The three legislations up for discussion are the GENIUS Act, CLARITY Act, and Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act.

WLFI Crypto To Go Live This Week Amid Bitcoin Breaking Out And Crypto Week USA Getting Underway?

Investors and traders have been waiting patiently for the long-awaited launch of the WLFI crypto token, the native asset powering President Trump’s World Liberty Financial DeFi platform. Many believe it may go live for trading on exchanges this week.

The World Liberty Financial team has also launched a vote for investors of the WLFI crypto token on whether they would like to see the asset made available for trading. Voting opened on July 9 and closes on July 16, and as of now, it is sitting at an overwhelming ‘YES’, with 99.95% of votes in favour.

When the voting closes on July 16, it will be the middle of the week and a perfect time for WLFI crypto to go live for trading. Analysts and traders are estimating that Bitcoin could go as high as $140,000 this week after breaking out into a fresh period of price discovery, which will bring an influx of eyes and fresh liquidity into the crypto market.

Bitcoin exploding, coupled with US politicians dubbing this week ‘Crypto Week USA’ due to three high-profile digital asset legislation talks happening in the House of Representatives, would mark an ideal time for WLFI crypto to finally go live for trading.

Investors have had their WLFI tokens locked up since the funding round in January that saw over $300 million raised. It has been a test of patience as traders are eager to get their hands on the native asset for the World Liberty Financial DeFi platform.

All Major Exchanges Will Be Lining Up To List The WLFI Token At Launch

With the Pump, the $PUMP token launch is expected to occur any day now and is anticipated to attract billions in volume, drawing significant attention to the market. Similarly, WLFI going live is likely to yield a similar outcome.

Market leaders such as Coinbase and Binance are expected to list WLFI crypto at launch. Binance, in particular, seems a foregone conclusion due to the close ties between World Liberty Financial’s USD1 stablecoin and the BNB Smart Chain on which it was first launched.

Coinbase, on the other hand, may prove difficult due to the simmering tensions between the exchange and World Liberty Financial. IT has long been speculated that Coinbase were behind the Bloomberg hit piece on both Binance and Trump’s affiliation with the World Liberty Financial project.

While there is a possibility that the World Liberty Financial Team does not wish to compete with Pump.fun and its PUMP token launch, given the current bullish market, there is likely enough liquidity and attention to be shared between the two.

One thing that is for sure is that whenever the WLFI crypto token does go live for trading, it will kickstart another gear for this bull market and could lead to new heights for the broader crypto market.

Aqua1 Foundation Is the Largest ‘Publicly’ Known Investor of WLFI Crypto – But Who Are They?

In terms of significant investments in WLFI crypto, the mysterious Aqua 1 Foundation, based in the UAE, is the highest-profile known investor. In late June, it was announced that Aqua 1 had purchased $100 million worth of WLFI crypto tokens, becoming the largest publicly known investor in the business.

However, a review of corporate registries shows that Aqua 1’s digital profile and other public information are almost non-existent. There has been no further information regarding the source of its capital or the person it named as its founding partner, Dave Lee.

“At this stage, we are not disclosing additional information beyond what has been publicly shared,” Aqua 1 said in a press release, before adding, “Aqua 1 is backed by a group of long-term, mission-aligned partners and led by Dave Lee and a global team with deep expertise in web3 and digital asset infrastructure.”
