Billionaire Justin Sun begs Trump-backed World Liberty Financial to unfreeze $100 million crypto stash
Justin Sun's wallets were frozen after $9 million in token transfers triggered blacklisting by World Liberty Financial, despite his pledge to support the project with $20 million in new investments.
- On Thursday, World Liberty Financial blacklisted Justin Sun's address, freezing 540 million unlocked and 2.4 billion locked WLFI tokens worth more than $3 billion, while Sun called the freeze 'unreasonable' and urged WLFI to unlock his allocation.
- Blockchain trackers flagged a $9 million WLFI transfer from Justin Sun to HTX and Binance after WLFI's 40% price drop since Monday to around 19 cents.
- In a follow-up post, Justin Sun pledged to market-buy $10 million of WLFI token and $10 million of ALTS to demonstrate his continued support, arguing tokens are "sacred and inviolable" and appealing for his wallets to be unlocked.
- The freeze risks alienating a major WLFI backer and highlights WLFI's close ties to President Donald Trump and his sons, cofounders who helped launch the project.
- Amid broader blacklisting activity, WLFI flagged more than 270 wallets last week, highlighting enforcement after on-chain trackers flagged transfers, while Justin Sun faced paused SEC scrutiny after Trump's inauguration.
