World Liberty Financial Website Crashes Amid Token Sale
World Liberty Financial Website Down During Token Launch
World Liberty Financial (WLFI), the decentralized finance (DeFi) project spearheaded by Donald Trump and his family, officially launched its token sale on Tuesday, October 15. However, the excitement surrounding the project quickly led to an unfortunate situation as the overwhelming demand caused the platform’s website to crash. As one of the most anticipated token sales of the year, this issue has left many investors frustrated, as they’ve been unable to participate in the sale due to the technical difficulties.
Token Sale Overwhelms Site with Traffic
The WLFI Crypto sale, which offers 35 billion tokens of the total 100 billion token supply on Ethereum, was open to those who secured whitelist spots in September. Accredited investors in the U.S. and select international investors were given the opportunity to participate in this public sale. However, due to a high volume of traffic, the website has been offline for hours, leaving prospective buyers unable to access the platform. Despite this setback, Etherscan shows that over 3,500 token holders have managed to acquire WLFI tokens, though this number is growing slowly compared to the over 100,000 individuals on the allowlist.
$5 Million Raised Despite Technical Issues
Despite the site crash, the project has already raised over $5 million, according to data from Etherscan. The wallet designated for the sale has been steadily accumulating assets, though this amount excludes the 47.5 billion WLFI tokens that remain unsold. The few transactions recorded prior to the token sale were movements of WLFI and some stablecoins. As of now, the site continues to show errors for most users attempting to access it, though some have reported seeing user verification screens before encountering issues.
Silence from Trump Family and Project Leaders
While the Trump family, including former President Donald Trump and his sons, has been vocal in promoting the project leading up to the token sale, there has yet to be any official statement regarding the site’s crash. The absence of communication has left many potential buyers wondering when the platform will be back online and whether they will still have a chance to participate in the sale. As the project remains highly anticipated, all eyes are on World Liberty Financial to resolve the issue and allow its token sale to continue.
