World Liberty Financial (WLFI) token surged 28% to $0.2398 following a significant whale purchase and positive analyst commentary, amid regulatory actions and market volatility.
On September 7, 2025, cryptocurrency analyst Michaël van de Poppe identified an emerging uptrend for WLFI, suggesting a buy zone around $0.21 and a target of $0.30 if the trend holds. He stated, "I'm personally actively trading $WLFI. I love the volatility. Lots of volume to generate on this one."
Concurrently, a whale purchased 13 million WLFI tokens worth $2.84 million from Binance, as reported by Lookonchain. This activity coincided with the WLFI team blocklisting 272 addresses, including one linked to Justin Sun, due to alleged price manipulation, which restored market confidence.
Market metrics showed strong participation: futures net inflows reached $113 million, Open Interest surged 33% to $1.1 billion, and derivatives volume jumped 61.2% to $6.74 billion. The Long/Short ratio on Binance was high at 3.13, indicating bullish positioning.
WLFI, backed by the Trump family, had a turbulent debut with an all-time high of $0.46 on September 1, 2025, but dropped nearly 50% from that peak. The project raised $550 million from over 85,000 investors in presales at $0.015 and $0.05 per token.
Despite the surge, profit-taking activity poses a downside risk, with potential pullback to the $0.21 support level. Traders are advised to monitor volume patterns for trend confirmation.
