WLFI Token Price Surge and Trading Activity
World Liberty Financial’s native token, WLFI, is showing renewed strength after breaking out of a bullish technical pattern, supported by a fresh wave of buyback activity. At the time of writing, WLFI was trading at $0.171, up 8% over the past 24 hours. The move pushed the token toward the top of its weekly trading range between $0.117 and $0.170, marking a 20% gain on the week and a 15% rise over the past month.
Trading activity also picked up meaningfully. WLFI’s spot volume climbed 26% to $320 million, signaling that traders are rotating back in after a relatively quiet period. Futures markets saw similar momentum, with derivatives volume rising 24% to $582 million, and open interest growing 14%. Rising open interest during an upswing typically indicates new long positions entering the market, rather than simply shorts covering — a sign of strengthening bullish conviction.
Buyback Activity Fuels Price Recovery
The latest rebound appears to be fuelled by World Liberty Financial’s team restarting its on-chain buyback program. Data from Arkham shows that roughly $10 million worth of USD1 was used to purchase 59 million WLFI tokens within just six hours.
A large portion of this came in a single heavy burst of activity: 7.79 million USD1 was deployed to acquire 46.5 million WLFI, with an average buy price of roughly $0.167.
The renewed demand arrives at a time when WLFI has been under notable pressure. Since reaching a peak of $0.26 in September, the token slid toward the $0.15 zone — a drop that erased an estimated $1 billion from the Trump family’s crypto-linked holdings.
The broader ecosystem has also faced hurdles, including losses tied to ALT5 Sigma, which accumulated $750 million in WLFI several months ago.
Despite the turbulence, the project continues to roll out new integrations — including Dolomite’s USD1 rewards program — and ongoing token burns, which have helped restore confidence within the community.
Technical Analysis: WLFI Breaks Out of Symmetrical Triangle
From a technical standpoint, WLFI spent October and early November forming a symmetrical triangle, a pattern that develops when lower highs meet higher lows. These patterns often build pressure before a decisive move — and WLFI broke out right at the apex.
The breakout was confirmed by a series of strong green candles backed by rising volume, pushing price into the $0.17 region.
Momentum Indicators
Momentum also supports the move:
- •The Relative Strength Index (RSI) has climbed toward 63, forming higher lows throughout the consolidation — an early signal that buyers were regaining control.
- •However, the Stochastic RSI and Williams %R have both moved into overbought territory, which sometimes precedes a cooling-off period.
Future Price Outlook
If WLFI can hold above the $0.16 breakout level, analysts expect the rally could extend toward the $0.19–$0.20 range, especially if buybacks continue and volume remains strong.
Should price fall back into the triangle, however, it could weaken the bullish setup and expose support near $0.14, which acted as a floor throughout late October.
