Let's talk about why I am optimistic about wlfi in the short term.
The circulation of wlfi is about 4 billion coins, and the Trump family currently holds no circulating wlfi coins. However, they hold a large amount of alts stocks, which are fully liquid and not locked up. Alts has $750 million in funds, which is a nuclear power.
If wlfi starts at $1, then the corresponding stock price of alts would be $38, while it is currently only $6.5. So, if wlfi starts at $1, alts would jump to $38; is that scientific? Are you asking the Trump family stocks to directly crash? Wouldn't that make everyone a bag holder? If the alts stocks crash, the wlfi price will definitely collapse, even with $750 million as support, it can't hold up.
But now they are controlling the price of wlfi around $0.22, which makes a difference, bringing the corresponding price to around $8, almost the same as the current market price.
Now, if the current $750 million is reinvested into the market, the impact on wlfi's price would be nuclear explosion level. At the same time, it would also drive the alts stock price up significantly.
Retail investors prefer to buy on the rise rather than on the fall. What do you think? If you were Trump, how would you choose between the two strategies? Would you set wlfi's price directly at $1 and wait for retail investors to crash it? Or would you raise it from $0.2 to $1 while also washing the market?
