Several leading %Cryptocurrency exchanges including %Kraken, %KuCoin, and %HTX announced plans to list WLFI – the World Liberty Financial token backed by former U.S. President Donald Trump and his family.
HTX confirmed that it began accepting WLFI deposits on the same day and will open trading on September 1, 2025. KuCoin likewise signaled trading will commence on that date, while Kraken posted on social media that support is “coming soon,” though it has not specified a firm trading launch date.
World Liberty Financial (CRYPTO: $WLFI) is the token issued by a crypto‑DeFi venture closely tied to the Trump family. In July, WLFI was designated as non‑transferable, but following a near‑unanimous community vote, its tradability has now been approved. Additional scrutiny has arisen around WLFI’s tokenomics – U.S. Treasuries backing, limited circulating supply (just 5% initially), and a deflationary, governance-based model.
With exchanges gearing up for the token’s debut, WLFI is poised to enter the market amid a swirl of excitement and criticism. Whether the political branding will translate into sustainable crypto adoption – or regulatory backlash – remains to be seen.
