The Trump family’s DeFi platform World Liberty Financial has seen sales of its WLFI token surge following the launch of the $TRUMP and $MELANIA meme coins over the weekend, with another 5% now set to be sold.
WLFI token sales surged to $254 million by late Sunday from about $91 million a day earlier, Dune Analytics said.
“Due to massive demand and overwhelming interest, we’ve decided to open up an additional block of 5% of token supply,” World Liberty Financial said on X.
Following the sale of 20% of the initial token supply, the platform released an additional 5 billion tokens for 5 cents each, representing a 230% increase from the initial offering price.
The WLFI token is a governance token for the platform’s upcoming decentralized trading platform and gives the holders voting rights in community proposals. However, the tokens are not transferable and cannot be sold.

The Trump family launched the DeFi platform in September, saying it would sell 20% of the 100 billion World Liberty Financial tokens it created. But its website now lists an additional 5 billion for sale at 5 cents each, aiming to raise an additional $250 million through the extended sale.
The initial sale had a slow start, partly because it restricted U.S. retail investors from participating.
