World Liberty Financial’s WLFI Open Interest Tops $800 Million Ahead of Launch

2025-9-1 15:26

Speculation around World Liberty Financial’s WLFI token has reached a new peak ahead of its impending September 1 launch.

Futures contracts tied to WLFI now show more than $800 million in open interest, highlighting the scale of trader activity before the token even begins spot trading.

Data from CoinGlass shows that WLFI open interest climbed 68% in the past day to $809.3 million, while trading volume jumped 141% to $1.76 billion.

According to the data, Binance accounted for more than half of both metrics, with additional activity concentrated on platforms like Hyperliquid and Bitget.

The jump in derivatives activity suggests traders are positioning for volatility around launch. Open interest, which measures active contracts that remain unsettled, is widely watched as an indicator of investor confidence in future price moves.

Interestingly, blockchain analytics firm Onchain Lens reported that WLFI contracts listed on the decentralized exchange Hyperliquid showed strong bullish momentum.

According to the firm, the most notable trade was a leveraged whale account holding more than 8.6 million WLFI, worth around $3.2 million.

Initially, the position showed $644,000 in paper gains, but updated estimates from Hyperdash later raised the figure to nearly $1 million.

The trader is operating with 3x leverage, effectively magnifying potential returns while exposing themselves to higher risk.

This bet reflects a conviction that WLFI’s value will climb once the token becomes available to the broader market.

Meanwhile, these large speculative positions also help explain why WLFI’s open interest has surged to record levels in recent days.

Last week, the Donald Trump-related DeFi venture confirmed that its WLFI token will become open to trading on September 1.

Since then, major crypto trading platforms have been preparing for the rollout.

Earlier today, OKX announced that it would convert its WLFI pre-market contracts into perpetual futures and had already opened deposits for the token on its platform.
