    🤫 The Trump family&#39;s World Liberty Financial appears to have quietly weakened a governance promise on Oct. 1. Its FAQ used to say tokens held in WLF&#39;s treasury &quot;will not be voted.&quot; Now, it says WLF &quot;does not currently vote&quot; them. docs.worldlibertyfinancial.com/resources/faq

    Trump family crypto firm World Liberty Financial launched $WLFI staking Oct. 1, with a $1.25M pot of USD1 rewards. What&#39;s in it for the Trumps? Locked tokens can&#39;t be dumped. But they can help prop up a coin the family holds billions of. And payouts come via their stablecoin. https://worldlibertyfinancial.com/staking

    Trump&#39;s World Liberty Financial crypto venture is continuing its promotion to encourage Binance customers to hold its USD1 stablecoin. Binance is barred from serving US-based customers. So, essentially, WLFI is encouraging foreign investment in a product that&#39;s paid Trump hundreds of millions. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ https://www.binance.com/en/support/announcement/detail/9745ace0eb7a42d396e22a711f907616
