WLFI：川普家族支持的新 DeFi 項目

哦

World Liberty Financial (WLFI), a DeFi project with close ties to the Trump family, has been making headlines with its frequent purchases of various crypto assets, including ETH, LINK, AAVE, ENA, and ONDO. These activities have sparked a follow-on craze in the market, rendering WLFI an indicator that cannot be overlooked in the crypto investment landscape.

與川普家族關係密切的 DeFi 項目 World Liberty Financial（WLFI）因頻繁購買 ETH、LINK、AAVE、ENA 和 ONDO 等各種加密資產而登上新聞頭條。這些活動引發了市場的後續熱潮，使WLFI成為加密貨幣投資領域中不可忽視的指標。

But what exactly is WLFI, and how might its actions continue to influence the market? Let's delve deeper into these aspects.

但 WLFI 到底是什麼？讓我們更深入地研究這些方面。

1. Understanding WLFI

1.了解WLFI

WLFI is a DeFi platform that enables users to borrow, lend, and invest in crypto assets, with the goal of becoming a tool for achieving financial independence. It was officially launched on the Aave V3 protocol on the Ethereum mainnet in September 2023.

WLFI 是一個 DeFi 平台，使用戶能夠借貸和投資加密資產，目標是成為財務獨立的工具。它於 2023 年 9 月在以太坊主網上的 Aave V3 協議上正式上線。

The project's vision is to empower users to conduct private peer-to-peer transactions without relying on traditional financial intermediaries, thereby promoting the development of decentralized finance around the world, especially for those who are underserved by traditional banks. The Trump family has even hailed it as "the future of crypto DeFi."

該計畫的願景是使用戶能夠在不依賴傳統金融中介機構的情況下進行私人點對點交易，從而促進全球去中心化金融的發展，特別是對於那些傳統銀行服務不足的人。川普家族甚至將其譽為「加密貨幣 DeFi 的未來」。

As the governance token of World Liberty Financial, each WLFI grants its holder one vote in community proposals on the governance platform. However, it is worth noting that its initial distribution plan has been adjusted, shifting from over half being used for sales to a larger allocation for community and creator rewards, reflecting the changes in community incentives and the share of initial supporters.

作為 World Liberty Financial 的治理代幣，每個 WLFI 授予其持有者在治理平台上的社區提案中的一票投票權。但值得注意的是，其初始分配方案有所調整，從一半以上用於銷售，轉向更大分配給社區和創作者獎勵，反映了社區激勵和初始支持者比例的變化。

Unlike other governance tokens such as UNI and MKR, WLFI does not confer economic rights, meaning that it is non-transferable after redemption. In other words, users cannot trade/exchange/sell WLFI after holding the token. While this may be subject to change through governance proposals in the future, it appears that the token will not be tradable for an extended period.

與 UNI 和 MKR 等其他治理代幣不同，WLFI 不賦予經濟權利，這意味著它在贖回後不可轉讓。也就是說，用戶持有代幣後無法交易/兌換/出售WLFI。雖然未來可能會透過治理提案改變這一點，但該代幣似乎不會在較長時間內進行交易。

Perhaps due to its non-transferability and inability to provide short-term profit opportunities for cryptocurrency investors, WLFI has had low liquidity since its launch on October 15.

或許是由於其不可轉讓性，無法為加密貨幣投資者提供短期獲利機會，WLFI 自 10 月 15 日上線以來，流動性一直較低。

It is also crucial to note that WLFI is only available to users outside the United States and is not registered with any financial regulator. This means that U.S. residents cannot participate in trading these tokens, which may be considered to circumvent U.S. law enforcement supervision.

另外需要注意的是，WLFI 僅適用於美國境外的用戶，且未在任何金融監管機構註冊。這意味著美國居民無法參與這些代幣的交易，這可能被認為是規避美國執法監管。

Considering its promotion method, to put it more bluntly, WLFI is a project under the influence of Trump that seeks to promote the use of US dollar stablecoins and DeFi applications, aiming to strengthen the position of the US dollar in the DeFi field.

考慮到其推廣方式，更直白地說，WLFI 是川普影響下的一個旨在推廣美元穩定幣和 DeFi 應用的項目，旨在強化美元在 DeFi 領域的地位。

Hence, we must explore how the Trump family supports this project.

因此，我們必須探究川普家族如何支持這個計畫。

1) Team members

1）團隊成員

According to the official information of WLFI, there is a passage that describes itself like this: Inspired by Trump, it promotes the large-scale adoption of stablecoins and DeFi, especially US dollar stablecoins, to ensure the dominance of the US dollar.

根據WLFI的官方訊息，有一段話是這樣形容自己的：在川普的啟發下，推動穩定幣和DeFi，特別是美元穩定幣的大規模採用，以確保美元的主導地位。

Donald Trump himself serves as the project’s “chief cryptocurrency advocate,” while his sons Eric Trump, Donald Trump Jr., and Barron Trump serve as Web3 ambassadors, helping to promote the platform and attract mainstream users.

唐納德·特朗普本人擔任該項目的“首席加密貨幣倡導者”，而他的兒子埃里克·特朗普、小唐納德·特朗普和巴倫·特朗普擔任Web3 大使，幫助推廣該平台並吸引主流用戶。

In this context, according to the content of the white paper, DT Marks DEFI LLC (a company owned by Trump) agreed to promote WLFI and granted it the right to use the names and portraits of Trump family members for publicity. In return, WLFI paid Token to DT Marks DEFI LLC and shared part of the net income of the agreement (about 75%).

在此背景下，根據白皮書內容，DT Marks DEFI LLC（川普旗下公司）同意推廣WLFI，並授予其使用川普家族成員姓名和肖像進行宣傳的權利。作為回報，WLFI 向 DT Marks DEFI LLC 支付了 Token，並分享了協議淨收入的一部分（約 75%）。

However, the Trump family has legally circumvented all ties with WLFI. Although WLFI claims to be "the only DeFi platform inspired by Trump", the Trump family's positions as advocates and ambassadors are not real positions involved in management, and there is a small text at the bottom of the official website:

然而，川普家族在法律上規避了與 WLFI 的所有關係。儘管 WLFI 聲稱是“唯一受川普啟發的 DeFi 平台”，但川普家族作為倡導者和大使的職位並非真正參與管理的職位，官網底部有一段小文字：

Donald J. Trump, any of his family members, or any director, officer, or employee of the Trump Organization, DT Marks DEFI LLC, or their respective affiliates, is not an officer, director, founder, or employee of WLFI or its affiliates. … World Liberty Financial and its WLFI Token are not political in nature and are not part of any political campaign.

唐納德·J·特朗普(Donald J. Trump) 及其任何家庭成員或特朗普組織、DT Marks DEFI LLC 或其各自附屬公司的任何董事、高級職員或員工不是WLFI 或其附屬公司的高級職員、董事、創始人或員工。 …… World Liberty Financial 及其 WLFI 代幣本質上不具有政治性，也不屬於任何政治運動的一部分。

Therefore, some critics believe that WLFI is deeply tied to the Trump family and is a Trump family OEM product. Unknown traders use the Trump family's reputation to launch products, and the Trump family creates brands and gains profits. This is because such business operations are commonplace for the Trump family. For example, many Trump hotels or buildings named after Trump around the world are in cooperation with Trump in the form of licensing and OEM.

因此，有評論認為，WLFI與川普家族有著深厚的淵源，是川普家族的代工產品。不知名的商人利用川普家族的聲譽推出產品，而川普家族則創造品牌並獲取利潤。因為這樣的商業運作對川普家族來說是家常便飯。例如，全球許多以川普命名的川普飯店或建築都是以授權、代工的形式與川普合作。

In general, although all kinds of propaganda say that WLFI is inextricably linked to the Trump family, there is actually no legal connection. This may be one of the reasons why people are not very convinced of WLFI.

總的來說，雖然各種宣傳都說WLFI與川普家族有著千絲萬縷的聯繫，但實際上並沒有任何法律關係。這可能是人們對WLFI不太信服的原因之一。

In addition to the strong support of the Trump family, the WLFI team is composed of experienced encryption practitioners.

除了川普家族的大力支持外，WLFI團隊由經驗豐富的加密從業者組成。

According to the official website, WLFI has five founders
