WLFI whale panic sparks liquidity drain: Can bulls hold on to $0.20?

ambcrypto2025-10-01 tarihinde yayınlandı2025-10-02 tarihinde güncellendi

Key Takeaways

Are World Liberty Financial whales giving up?

Not entirely. While one whale pulled 11M WLFI worth $2.15M from liquidity and sold, creating sharp downside pressure, broader whale activity remains mixed.

What’s driving WLFI’s current selling pressure?

Futures Netflow dropped to -14.81M, retail selling volume exceeded buys by 192M WLFI — signs of aggressive sell pressure pushing the token toward $0.186 support.


World Liberty Financial [WLFI] bounced back moderately as it successfully defended the $0.20 support, after dropping to a local low $0.19. 

In fact, as of this writing, WLFI was trading at $0.200, rising by 0.92% on the daily charts. 

Before this gain, the altcoin had been on a strong downtrend, dropping by 36% over the last 30 days. Now, some market players are signaling fatigue and taking a step back. 

What are WLFI whales up to?

As WLFI dropped below $0.2, a whale panicked and hurriedly closed its positions. Per Lookonchain, a whale removed 11 million WLFI worth $2.15 million from the liquidity pool, selling them for 521 Ethereum [ETH]

Usually, when an offload occurs, it signals a lack of confidence in the market. However, not all whales exhibit this type of behavior. 

According to Nansen data, World Liberty Financial whales have recorded a positive balance change for three consecutive days.

Over this period, whales have acquired 61 million tokens, reflecting sustained demand. 

Derivatives turn highly bearish

Interestingly, with the market showing weaknesses, investors in the Futures markets have reduced exposure. 

According to CoinGlass, Futures Inflow fell to $270.55 million while Outflow jumped to $285.36 million. As a result, Futures Netflow dropped to -$14.81 million, marking a 68% change.

When Futures Outflow hikes, it suggests that traders are aggressively closing positions. 

Retail selling activity skyrockets, too 

Surprisingly, while WLFI has yet to make minimal gains, selling activity on the Spot market skyrocketed. According to Coinalyze, World Liberty Financial has recorded a negative Delta for three consecutive days. 

Over this period, the altcoin saw a cumulative total of 685.25 million in sell volume compared to 495.81 million in buy volume.

As a result, the altcoin recorded a negative buy-sell delta of -192.44 million, a clear sign of aggressive selling. 

Exchange activity echoed this behavior. 

According to CoinGlass, WLFI Spot Netflow turned positive for the first time in two weeks. At press time, Netflow was $507k, indicating higher inflow — a sign of increased selling pressure.

Historically, increased selling activity from retail traders has resulted in intense downward pressure, often a precursor to low prices.

Is WLFI set for more losses?

World Liberty Financial is experiencing intense bearish pressure, with investors across the market selling aggressively.

As a result, the altcoin’s Stochastic RSI dropped into oversold territory, settling at 28 as of this writing. At the same time, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) fell to 44, holding within bearish territory.

Such a market setup signals higher selling pressure and weak upward momentum.

Having said that, if sellers, including whales, continue to dominate the market, WLFI will drop below $0.20 with $0.186 acting as key support.

However, if bulls establish a position in the market to defend this support level, they could push the altcoin towards $0.224 in the short term.

Grayscale Report: Financial Privacy in the AI Era, Why Zcash Should Not Be Overlooked?

Title: Grayscale Report: Financial Privacy in the AI Era – Why Zcash Should Not Be Overlooked The article argues that privacy is a fundamental, not niche, attribute of functional money. It highlights that technological shifts, like the rise of AI and stablecoins, are driving a new wave of public focus on financial privacy. Zcash, a decentralized digital currency similar to Bitcoin but with built-in privacy via zero-knowledge proofs, is positioned to address this need. Unlike transparent blockchains, Zcash offers users the option to conduct "shielded" transactions that hide sender, receiver, and amount while remaining verifiable. The report details Zcash's evolution, noting key upgrades that improved usability and security. It points to rising on-chain usage of privacy features as evidence of real demand. Currently, ZEC holds a minimal share (~0.4%) of the total crypto market cap. Grayscale suggests this reflects a market assumption that privacy is a marginal concern. The investment thesis hinges on a potential market re-evaluation: if privacy is recognized as a core monetary feature in an era of enhanced surveillance, Zcash's current valuation represents significant upside potential. Key risks discussed include regulatory challenges, historical trusted setup concerns for older pools (mitigated by newer protocols), quantum computing threats, and execution risks associated with future technical upgrades. The conclusion is that while the future scale of private digital currency is uncertain, the market currently prices in little chance of its value increasing substantially, presenting a potential opportunity for investors.

Vitalik Moves to Local Mixing as Obfuscation Series Reaches Third Stage

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin published the third part of his series on cryptographic obfuscation, focusing on a method called "local mixing." This method abandons lattices and elliptic curves in favor of ideas borrowed from hash function design. Buterin described local mixing as a "completely different way of cryptography," free from elliptic curves, prime factorization, and lattices, making it more akin to symmetric cryptography used in everyday encryption. The process begins with a circuit of logic gates like XOR, AND, and NOT. It undergoes a pipeline that ensures a correct output while obscuring any trace of the internal logic. Key steps include adding reversibility, strengthening, mechanization, mixing, and finally obfuscation. The mixing step scatters extra logic gates and shuffles their arrangement. Reversibility is foundational, allowing gates to be rewritten as other reversible gates with similar behavior. Buterin acknowledged local mixing is a "wild and risky undertaking," lying on the "graveyard of failed attempts at white-box cryptography." However, its proponents argue it needs more research effort and a willingness to accept higher overhead costs. Buterin suggested AI could accelerate its development. He called obfuscation the "final boss of cryptography," with the most complex constructions having runtimes exceeding the universe's age. The article concludes by explaining obfuscation's utility: it can encrypt a program so it still functions with normal inputs and outputs while hiding the code. Combined with blockchain, this moves toward a "trusted third party that requires no trust," enabling applications like private, collusion-resistant voting without relying on a trusted committee.

India Orders Closure of Hundreds of Google Firebase Accounts Used in Banking Frauds

India's cybercrime agency ordered Google to block hundreds of accounts on its Firebase app development platform. The move came after investigators traced numerous fake banking apps and phishing websites to the service. The Indian Cyber Crime Coordination Centre (I4C) sent multiple notices to Google, identifying at least 57 websites and databases on Firebase allegedly used to distribute malware and steal victims' financial data. Among these, seven were phishing pages mimicking login screens of major Indian banks like State Bank of India, ICICI Bank, and Axis Bank. The rest were reportedly data collection points for stolen information like credit card numbers and one-time passwords. The fraud scheme involved Android malware disguised as legitimate banking apps, luring victims with promises of new credit cards, rewards, or credit limit increases. Once installed, the app secretly forwarded device data to a Firebase database controlled by scammers, granting them access to other apps and the victim's funds. One scam specifically targeted beneficiaries of a government farmer aid program. This action marks a shift in India's approach. Previously focused on blocking individual fraudulent websites, authorities are now targeting the broader infrastructure enabling these scams. The move highlights how fraudsters exploit widely accessible platforms like Firebase, attracted by its free tier and database capabilities, to target India's vast digital payment user base.
