📂 Trump-backed DeFi project WLFI reveals token unlock plan

WLFI, the DeFi project tied to the Trump family, announced that no tokens owned by the team, advisors, or co-founders will unlock at launch.

There are also no plans for an additional private sale.

Only a portion of tokens from the public sale — purchased at $0.015 and $0.05 — will unlock initially. The rest will be subject to a community vote to determine the final unlock schedule.

The WLFI team also reiterated their partnership with a major centralized exchange, signaling ongoing support post-launch.

📉 Footprint Charts — Explained Simply

Footprints give a look inside the candle, showing the actual order flow — who’s buying, who’s selling, and where.

Here’s the breakdown:

➡️ They show bid vs ask volume at each price level
➡️ You can view them as volume clusters, profiles, or deltas
➡️ Help spot absorptions, imbalances, and trapped traders
➡️ Great for identifying true intent behind candles — not just price movement

Footprints don’t just show what price did — they show how it got there.
