TRON DAO Strengthens WLFI Liquidity and Ecosystem

The recent investment aligns with TRON DAO’s strategy of bolstering WLFI’s liquidity and market presence. Shortly after Sun’s announcement, TRON DAO spent $15 million in USDT to purchase one billion WLFI tokens.

This transaction occurred within an hour of the investment disclosure, sparking speculation about TRON DAO’s role in stabilizing WLFI’s ecosystem. These moves suggest a calculated effort to ensure liquidity and investor confidence in WLFI, particularly as the project gains traction ahead of a significant political event, the inauguration of Donald Trump as the next U.S. president.

WLFI Expands Token Supply to Meet Growing Demand

In response to heightened interest, WLFI announced a 5% increase in its token supply. The updated supply can be purchased through WLFI’s official website using ETH, USDC, USDT, or WETH. 

With a total sale volume of 25 billion tokens, 20.86 billion have already been sold, leaving 4.138 billion available. WLFI’s website emphasizes the importance of connecting a crypto wallet to facilitate purchases.

The project has witnessed a surge in activity, with Etherscan data showing 36,612 holders and a 5.713% increase in the number of holders. A total of 44,519 transfers further indicates the growing adoption of WLFI. The current token price remains at $0.05, reflecting steady interest from investors despite market volatility.

Mutual Benefits Between TRX and WLFI

TRON’s increasing involvement in WLFI comes shortly after WLFI acquired TRX tokens. This exchange suggests a mutually beneficial relationship, with both entities leveraging each other’s ecosystems for growth. Additionally, the timing of these developments indicates strategic planning aimed at boosting WLFI’s market credibility and adoption.
