Donald Trump’s inner circle is back aggressively re-buying World Liberty Financial (WLFI), the native token of the Trump family-backed decentralized finance (DeFi) platform. According to data from LookOnChain, World Liberty Financial’s dev team went on to spend $7.79M USD1 to purchase 46.56 million WLFI tokens at an approximate price of $0.1674.

This on-chain buy-back activity briefly sparked an 8% rebound campaign for the said altcoin, but WLFI couldn’t manage to keep above the $0.17 resistance line. With both Spot & Futures trading volumes witnessing roughly 25% hikes, WLFI crypto shows signs of stabilization after a two-month downward spiral on the charts WLFI’s $0.26 milestone.

Bottom Or Bull Trap Served For WLFI Holders?

Breaking above the $0.17 range again could serve the boost WLFI’s bulls have longed for, as trading volume spikes are usually followed by price appreciation – unless the whales continue to sell. In WLFI’s case, the big-time crypto investor sentiment is positive for five days in a row, now depicted in the Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) on the 4-hour charts.

On the other hand, there’s 75.33B World Liberty Financial (WLFI) tokens waiting to be unlocked. This could result in mass inflation for the Donald Trump-backed DeFi altcoin, as previously seen with the United States President’s signature TRUMP Coin (TRUMP).

The PolitFi meme currency slid over 90% since the all-time peak of $73, hit on Inauguration Day, with millions of TRUMP coins still getting poured into the markets every week. Having no utility whatsoever, TRUMP coin differs from the DeFi-focused WLFI coin, powering the essence of the Donald Trump-backed crypto platform.

People Also Ask:

What’s the latest on WLFI’s buyback activity?

World Liberty Financial (WLFI) just made a big on-chain buyback, spending 7.79 million USD1 to scoop up 46.56 million WLFI tokens over the past five hours as of November 26, 2025. They bought at an average price of about $0.1674 per token, using swaps via the Cow Protocol for efficient execution.

Why is the Trump team hammering buybacks right now?

WLFI’s down nearly 50% since its January 2025 launch, trading at ~$0.16 amid a brutal crypto dip that nuked $19 billion from markets. This follows a September governance vote to use 100% of platform fees (from Ethereum, Solana, BNB liquidity) for buybacks and burns—basically, they’re signaling “we believe in this” to counter the bleed & build long-term hype.

Did the price actually go up after the buyback?

Yes—WLFI jumped 10–13% almost immediately and is now trading around $0.17–$0.18. It’s still down about 50 % from its all-time high, but the buyback stopped the bleeding and sparked fresh buying.

Is this a real “we think the bottom is in” signal?

When a company (or in this case, the founders) uses real money to buy their own token during a dip, it’s usually a bullish sign—they believe it’s cheap and will be worth more later. The Trump team even passed a rule earlier this year that 100 % of platform fees go toward more buybacks and burns, so this is part of an ongoing plan, not a one-off stunt.

What should regular investors watch next?

Keep an eye on whether they keep doing buybacks and if trading volume stays strong. It’s still a high-risk, highly political token tied to the Donald Trump brand.
