Trump-Family Backed World Liberty Financial Accused Of Facilitating Token Scandal By Crypto Billionaire

The loan pushed Dolomite’s USD1 pool to 100% utilization and briefly locked ordinary depositors out of their funds, according to the protocol.

  • On Sunday, Tron founder Justin Sun publicly criticized Trump-linked World Liberty Financial after the project borrowed about $75 million in stablecoins on Dolomite, tying up user liquidity and prompting Sun to break ties.
  • World Liberty Financial deposited 5 billion WLFI tokens as collateral on Dolomite to borrow the stablecoins, causing the pool's utilization to hit 100% earlier this week and temporarily locking ordinary depositors out of their funds.
  • Sun claimed he is the "single largest victim" of the project's "wrongful blacklisting" of his wallet, alleging WLFI's governance votes "were not conducted through a fair or transparent process" and "key information was withheld from voters."
  • WLFI defended the action as a security measure targeting 272 wallets linked to phishing and compromised support channels, insisting it "only intervenes to protect users, never to silence normal activity." Co-founder Zak Folkman did not respond to requests for comment.
  • The conflict follows a freeze last September that locked Sun out of 595 million tokens worth about $107 million at the time, while the project's native WLFi token has fallen 18% to $0.079 over the past week.
