World Liberty Financial is moving to centralize control by requiring token holders to lock up their WLFI for at least 180 days before they can vote on the protocol’s future. This new proposal essentially ends immediate voting rights for liquid holders, favouring those willing to commit their capital long-term.
To further reward high-level investors, the project is introducing “Node” and “Super Node” tiers. These tiers grant major stakers exclusive financial perks, such as subsidized 1:1 conversion into the USD1 stablecoin and the ability to engage in direct partnership discussions with the development team.
Under the new framework, World Liberty Financial is introducing high-entry tiers for its most significant investors. To become a “Node,” a user must stake at least 10 million WLFI (worth approximately $1 million), which grants them access to private, over-the-counter stablecoin conversions.
To ensure these large trades remain efficient, the protocol will pay market makers to keep prices stable, effectively handing over small profit margins (usually 10 to 15 basis points) directly to these qualifying stakers.
For those staking 50 million WLFI (roughly $5 million), the “Super Node” tier offers even deeper integration, including guaranteed direct access to the team for partnership talks and potential custom financial incentives.
Regardless of their tier, all stakers can earn a 2% annual reward in WLFI from the project’s treasury, provided they actually participate in governance votes. This push to lock up capital coincides with the rapid growth of the protocol’s USD1 stablecoin, which now has a circulating supply of $4.7 billion.
