Wlfi Greenlights Aggressive 100% Treasury Liquidity Fee Allocation for WLFI Token Buybacks and Burns

wlfi approves plan to use 100% of treasury liquidity fees for WLFI token buybacks and burns

Wlfi just dropped a bombshell move that's sending shockwaves through DeFi circles.

Radical Treasury Reallocation

The protocol commits every single liquidity fee generated by its treasury toward systematic WLFI token repurchases and permanent removal from circulation. No partial measures—this is maximum economic impact.

Tokenomics on Steroids

By directing 100% of fee revenue toward buybacks and burns, Wlfi creates a self-reinforcing economic loop that could dramatically accelerate token scarcity. Traditional finance would study this for years before implementing half-measures.

Deflationary Endgame

Each burned token permanently reduces supply while fee revenue continues funding future burns. It's the kind of aggressive deflationary mechanics that make central bankers nervous—and crypto investors wealthy.

Crypto community asks how much token buybacks will be approved

According to some community members on social platforms, the WLFI platform currently collects a 0.125% fee from an estimated $3.5 billion in daily trading activity, and could use those fees to buy and burn WLFI tokens. On average, about 4.375 million tokens are taken away from circulation every day.

🦅 Governance Update:

The community has voted to use 100% of WLFI Treasury Liquidity Fees for Buyback & Burn, passing with almost unanimous support.

The team will begin implementing this initiative this week, and all buybacks & burns will be transparently posted once conducted.

Having a circulating supply of roughly 24.66 billion WLFI, burning 10% of the supply, or around 2.47 billion tokens, would take an estimated 564 days under the current schedule. 

Supporters of the plan believe shrinking supply when demand goes up could boost the token’s value to reward long-term holders.

“This program removes tokens from circulation held by participants not committed to WLFI’s long-term growth and direction, effectively increasing relative weight for committed long-term holders,” the proposal read.

During WLFI’s official launch on September 1, the token had a lackluster market performance that saw it drop to an all-time low price level just three days after. WLFI had plunged 40% by September 4, shedding millions of dollars in value from investors’ bags of profits.

Despite the platform burning 47 million WLFI tokens on September 3, the MOVE failed to reverse the decline, and the token has lost over 36% of its value since launch, according to Coingecko data.

Token burn is useless, naysayers complain

The buyback and burn program may have generated some Optimism among holders, but others are not convinced that it will be enough to stabilize WLFI’s market.

According to one WLFI enthusiast on X, a portion of the presale supply could be burned and bought back by the team rather than released into circulation. Their proposal also mentioned a cap tied to fee revenues and a vesting schedule to limit how much presale supply could be unlocked annually. 

“This would cut down sales pressure and support long-term stability,” the post argued.

Naysayers, however, say token burns do not create intrinsic value for the month-old governance token and would not raise its fundamental value either.

Another commenter called the current burn rates inadequate. “Burns from fees alone won’t take WLFI to $1; they’re too small and too slow. Price stability needs massive supply cuts, not just scraps. Unless 10B+ gets burned, $1 is a dream insiders sell while retail bleeds. We need real action, not delays,” the user wrote.

WLFI announces debit card, token price still trading red

As reported by Cryptopolitan on Monday, during a fireside chat at the Korea Blockchain Week 2025 Impact conference in Seoul, WLFI co-founder Zak Folkman revealed the project is launching a debit card.

The upcoming card will connect the project’s stablecoin, World Liberty Financial USD (USD1), with the WLFI app, with an integration into Apple Pay. The company has not yet set a release date for the product, but said it could expand WLFI’s utility and reach beyond its core DeFi trading platform.

WLFI’s market performance has been trending downward, with its price consolidating NEAR $0.1920 at the time of this publication. There is a general sentiment of bearish momentum because moving averages are on the market value’s lower side.
