WLFI Token Pops 10% as Burn Vote and Trump Headlines Shake Things Up
  • WLFI jumped 10% to $0.25 after a 99.8% community vote approved a continuous buyback-and-burn system.
  • Media buzz around Trump’s HB-1 visa policy pushed WLFI mentions into the top 20 crypto keywords.
  • Trump Media & Technology Group (DJT) stock rose 3%, mirroring WLFI’s upside momentum.

WLFI token broke away from the sluggish broader market this weekend, jumping 10% to hit $0.25 before cooling slightly to $0.24. At its peak, the move briefly pushed its market cap near $6 billion. The rally came right after the community overwhelmingly backed a buyback-and-burn mechanism, which investors are now seeing as a strong driver of long-term scarcity.

Community Burn Vote Sparks Optimism

On September 19, WLFI holders cast their votes, and the results were almost unanimous—99.8% in favor of a continuous burn system. The news was initially drowned out by market noise around the Fed’s rate cuts but quickly gained traction once macro jitters eased. The burn plan ties token supply directly to trading and ecosystem activity, creating a cycle where more engagement means more scarcity, and scarcity often leads to stronger price action.

Political Chatter Adds Fuel

At the same time, WLFI has found itself riding a wave of media hype around Donald Trump’s proposed HB-1 visa policy. The debates brought Trump’s name back into heavy circulation across financial and political media, and that spillover effect gave WLFI more visibility. LunarCrush data shows “Trump” ranking in the top 10 crypto-related keywords in the past 24 hours, with WLFI itself sliding into the top 20. The crossover between politics and markets created a surprising momentum boost that few tokens could replicate.

Ripple Effect on Trump-Linked Stocks

The excitement wasn’t limited to just crypto. Shares of Trump Media & Technology Group (DJT) also felt the tailwind, climbing 3% on Friday and pushing the company’s valuation to $4.8 billion. This parallel rise suggests that investor enthusiasm around Trump-backed ventures is bleeding across both equities and crypto. With WLFI already proving sensitive to political headlines, many traders are speculating this mix of scarcity mechanics and media exposure could keep the token in the spotlight for a while longer.
