Trump-backed World Liberty plans governance staking overhaul to reward active participation

To become a “Node,” users must stake at least 10 million WLFI, valued at roughly $1 million at current prices.

These participants would gain access to licensed market makers facilitating 1:1 conversions of supported stablecoins such as USDT and USDC into USD1, as well as USD1 off-ramps into US dollars.

The move would redirect arbitrage profits from institutional market makers to committed token holders, while strengthening demand for USD1 and tying governance power to long-term capital commitments.

To become a “Super Node,” participants must lock up a minimum of 50 million WLFI. In return, holders would receive priority access to partnership discussions with the platforms leadership, though commercial agreements remain subject to separate review.

The proposal will be put to a seven-day vote and must secure participation from at least one billion eligible tokens to be valid.

Staking-based governance models have gained traction across decentralized finance projects as developers seek mechanisms to align long-term incentives without relying on centralized oversight.
