In simple terms, the short-term books don’t look good, but there are positives in place that could prove beneficial in the long run. I’ve sorted out the key information on both sides for you; the core of your decision mainly depends on your position size and your risk tolerance.

📉 Risk signals: “Bad news” to watch for in the short term

1. Major loss by an affiliated company: WLFI’s treasury company, AI Financial, reported a net loss of $271.5 million in the first quarter, mainly due to the decline in WLFI token value. The company at one point issued a warning that “there are significant doubts regarding its ability to continue as a going concern.”
2. Token price pressure: WLFI tokens have continued to slide from their highs; as of June 9, they were down to about $0.055. The Trump family had already realized $1.0–$1.3 billion early on, creating selling pressure in the market.

3. Key personnel exit: Eric Trump (Trump’s son) was quietly removed from AI Financial’s board of directors at the end of April, and the official explanation for the reason has not been provided to date.

Good news amid ecosystem progress

1. Alleviation of the financial crisis: AI Financial updated that some of the WLFI tokens it holds can now be used for staking and lending. Liquidity is sufficient to support operations for the next 12 months, and the earlier concerns about “going concern” have been eased.

2. Further deepening of compliance arrangements: WLFI is applying for a U.S. national trust bank license, seeking to establish a compliance pathway under the federal regulatory framework for USD 1.

🤔 Key timeline

One important date to watch is August 12, 2026. At present, the lock-up period for WLFI tokens worth approximately $180 million will expire on that date. At that time, whether the market will see major changes in circulating supply,

3. If you’re still waiting: It’s not recommended to take a heavy position based on a “betting on a rebound” mindset. You can wait to see how the market performs after the tokens are unlocked on August 12.
