Trump-backed World Liberty plans governance staking overhaul to reward active participation

Crypto Briefing
World Liberty proposes staking unlocked WLFI tokens for 180 days to vote, rewarding active participants with a 2% annual return.

Summary

World Liberty Financial, a DeFi platform supported by the Trump family, has introduced a governance proposal requiring WLFI holders to stake unlocked tokens for a minimum of 180 days to participate in voting. Active participants who cast at least two votes during their lock-up period will earn an estimated 2% annual return from the treasury. Voting power is determined non-linearly by stake size and remaining lock-up duration to mitigate concentration among large holders. The plan also introduces "Node" (10 million WLFI staked) and "Super Node" (50 million WLFI staked) tiers, offering benefits like access to licensed market makers for 1:1 USD1 stablecoin conversions and prioritized partnership engagement. This overhaul aims to align long-term incentives by tying governance power to capital commitment and active participation.
