WLFI surges 12% thanks to whale money — is 0.18 USD within reach?

The prolonged decline lasting several weeks in the market has begun to cool down, creating conditions for a series of mid-cap tokens to emit their first stable signals. World Liberty Financial is also not outside this trend as it has just established a significant bounce back structure after a long period of weakening.

The positive movement quickly drew the whales back into the accumulation phase, as traders sought to secure positions ahead of a potential trend reversal scenario.

Whales are accumulating WLFI strongly

After a period of observing from the sidelines, whales have unexpectedly returned to the WLFI market with a strong accumulation pace. According to Lookonchain, a newly created wallet — address 0xd947 — has withdrawn 47.18 million WLFI worth 6.95 million USD from Binance, marking the first notable buying signal.

In total, these two whales have accumulated 31.95 million USD WLFI, a move that often indicates confidence in the bounce back prospects of the asset amidst a volatile market.

A large amount of capital continues to flow back as data from Nansen shows that Top Holders have added another 178 million WLFI in just 24 hours. The total accumulated over three days reached 298 million WLFI, reflecting strong demand that remains robust even when market sentiment is still uncertain.

Market history shows that when whale money flow accelerates, the circulating supply is significantly tightened — and that is often a precursor to price increase pressure in the subsequent phases.

The WLFI team sells the amount of TRX held

It is noteworthy that while whales are aggressively accumulating WLFI, the World Liberty Financial development team is quietly adjusting their portfolio, falling exposure to some other assets.

On-chain data from Onchain Lens shows that the team has deposited 40.59 million TRON (TRX) onto HTX, equivalent to 11.25 million USD. This amount of TRX was purchased for 9.94 million USD, meaning they are realizing a profit of about 1.4 million USD.

In many cases, this is seen as a signal of confidence in the long-term value of the native token — a factor that carries a tone ranging from neutral to positive for WLFI investors.

The price recovery shows strength

WLFI has just recorded four consecutive price increases after hitting a low of 0.11 USD, marking an early bounce back of the token. At the time of writing, the price has surpassed the 20-day EMA and the 50-day EMA, reinforcing the recovery signal.

Currently, WLFI is trading around 0.157 USD, up 0.85% on the day and 12.3% on the week. The DMI indicator also recorded a bullish crossover on November 24, with the positive index reaching 20.67, significantly higher than the negative index of 15.49, indicating that buying pressure is prevailing.

On the other hand, Spot Netflow has just turned positive, indicating that selling pressure is increasing. Data from CoinGlass shows a positive Netflow of $1.66 million, compared to the -$500,000 from the previous day. If selling pressure continues to increase, WLFI may return to test the 20-day EMA around $0.1439.
