World Liberty Financial (WLFI), the DeFi project tied to the Trump family, has posted a governance proposal restructuring token unlocks for all major holder categories, covering over 62 billion WLFI tokens in total.
Under the proposal, early supporters — presale buyers who purchased WLFI at either $0.015 or $0.05 per token — would see their more than 17 billion locked tokens placed on a 2-year cliff followed by a 2-year linear vest, with tokens beginning to unlock at year two and fully distributed by year four.
That timeline would extend well past January 2029, when Donald Trump's second term as U.S. president ends. Founders, team members, and partners, which hold a collective 45.2 billion WLFI, face a stricter schedule: a 2-year cliff with a 3-year linear vest, plus an immediate 10% burn of their allocation upon passage, per the proposal.
