World Liberty Financial Accuses Exchange Of Token Manipulation, Justin Sun Blacklisted

World Liberty Financial (WLFI), the newly launched decentralized finance (DeFi) platform backed by the Trump family, is facing significant price challenges following its WLFI token debut last Monday. 

The platform has leveled serious accusations against an unnamed crypto exchange, claiming it has been manipulating user tokens to drive down prices. This situation has drawn particular attention towards crypto billionaire and Tron founder Justin Sun.

World Liberty Financial Claims Manipulative Practices

After the WLFI token launched, its price surged to an impressive $0.47 on September 1. However, the excitement was short-lived, as the token subsequently plummeted to a weekly low of $0.18, reflecting a staggering 61% decrease in value. 

World Liberty Financial has alleged that this decline is linked to manipulative practices by an exchange, along with questionable movements from Justin Sun’s wallet, which has resulted in a significant amount of his fortune becoming inaccessible. 

Notably, the platform has blacklisted Sun’s wallet, which includes $540 million worth of unlocked WLFI tokens that are now frozen, and 2.4 billion locked tokens that remain out of reach.

Sun Responds To Allegations

In response to the allegations, Justin Sun took to social media site X to refute the claims. He stated that his address had only conducted “minor exchange deposit tests” with minimal amounts and had created address dispersion without engaging in any buying or selling activities, asserting that these actions could not have influenced the WLFI price.

The relationship between Justin Sun and World Liberty Financial  dates back to November 2024, when Sun made a substantial investment of $30 million in WLFI tokens, making him the platform’s largest investor. 

His support came with praise for President Donald Trump’s vision of establishing a new regulatory framework for digital assets, a move that has seemingly fostered increased interest in cryptocurrency adoption among major financial entities on Wall Street.

EUR/CHF slides as Euro struggles post-inflation data

The post EUR/CHF slides as Euro struggles post-inflation data appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. EUR/CHF weakens for a second straight session as the euro struggles to recover post-Eurozone inflation data. Eurozone core inflation steady at 2.3%, headline CPI eases to 2.0% in August. SNB maintains a flexible policy outlook ahead of its September 25 decision, with no immediate need for easing. The Euro (EUR) trades under pressure against the Swiss Franc (CHF) on Wednesday, with EUR/CHF extending losses for the second straight session as the common currency struggles to gain traction following Eurozone inflation data. At the time of writing, the cross is trading around 0.9320 during the American session. The latest inflation data from Eurostat showed that Eurozone price growth remained broadly stable in August, reinforcing the European Central Bank’s (ECB) cautious stance on monetary policy. The Core Harmonized Index of Consumer Prices (HICP), which excludes volatile items such as food and energy, rose 2.3% YoY, in line with both forecasts and the previous month’s reading. On a monthly basis, core inflation increased by 0.3%, unchanged from July, highlighting persistent underlying price pressures in the bloc. Meanwhile, headline inflation eased to 2.0% YoY in August, down from 2.1% in July and slightly below expectations. On a monthly basis, prices rose just 0.1%, missing forecasts for a 0.2% increase and decelerating from July’s 0.2% rise. The inflation release follows last week’s ECB policy decision, where the central bank kept all three key interest rates unchanged and signaled that policy is likely at its terminal level. While officials acknowledged progress in bringing inflation down, they reiterated a cautious, data-dependent approach going forward, emphasizing the need to maintain restrictive conditions for an extended period to ensure price stability. On the Swiss side, disinflation appears to be deepening. The Producer and Import Price Index dropped 0.6% in August, marking a sharp 1.8% annual decline. Broader inflation remains…
