WLFI Token Crash: World Liberty Financial’s WLFI token, linked to Donald Trump's family, plummeted by 36% this week and 28.9% in the last 24 hours due to a broader crypto market crash triggered by Trump's announcement of a 100% tariff on China.
Market Impact: The crypto market experienced significant selloffs, with Bitcoin and other major cryptocurrencies dropping between 10% to 30%, leading to over $7 billion in liquidations as traders reacted to the news and shifted towards more stable altcoins.
