World Liberty Financial’s proposal to unlock 62 billion WLFI tokens is now ready for approval, with early votes passing quorum providing near-unanimous support.
Under the plan, founders, team members and partners would burn 10% of their holdings, approximately 4.5 billion WLFI, to begin unlocking the remaining 40.7 billion tokens on a five-year schedule after a two-year gap.
No token would hit the market for at least two years due to cliff periods. The change marks a structural shift in how WLFI is valued, replacing indefinite lockups with predictable future supply and creating a clearer exit path for holders who previously had none.
This measure appears to have almost unanimous support, with 99.5% voting in favor.
The vote also highlights WLFI’s governance structure.
The participation levels align with previous proposals, suggesting that a relatively small group of large holders can drive major symbolic changes with limited opposition.
Voting power is heavily concentrated among a small group of large holders. The largest wallet alone accounts for nearly 13% of the votes cast, and the top four together control about 40% of the total voting power so far, enough to greatly influence the outcome on their own.
WLFI is also facing a lawsuit from Tron founder Justin Sun, who alleges that the project froze his tokens and stripped him of his governance rights, claims the company has denied.
