MEXC Launches Zero-Fee Trading for $WLFI

On September 3, 2025, crypto exchange MEXC announced that it would be listing World Liberty Financial’s governance token $WLFI. We have just recently listed it on the Fountainex with pairs like WLFI/USDT, WLFI/USDC, WLFI/USD1. The offer has been shared on the official MEXC account to announce that traders can now onboard with a new asset on the platform at a lower price and introduce users to the World Liberty Financial ecosystem.

World Liberty Financial is positioned as a new-generation platform aiming to bridge traditional finance (TradFi) and decentralized finance (DeFi). The project emphasizes three pillars:

• Dollar Dominance: Chain the ecosystem to USD stability.
• Capital Access: Creating investment routes to institutions and retail users.

The project, also together with WLFI, announces a stablecoin, called $USD1, that will be pegged to the U.S. dollar. As it was described:

• It is a fully backed stablecoin held by U.S Treasuries and cash.
• It is open to a third-party audit, which brings with it some extra transparency.
• USD1 will serve as a balancing mechanism to the ecosystem, offering price stability to users who trade in World Liberty Financial.

The new token of the same name, $WLFI, serves two purposes in the ecosystem. As details continue to come out, the governance aspect is at the heart of its marketing.

Political Support and Marketing Policy

One of the most interesting things about World Liberty Financial is that the Trump family backs it, and they stated their backing earlier this year, when the firm raised $550 million. This faction has only served to compound the concerns regarding WLFI and to produce opposing ideas. The $WLFI holders in July 2025_vote overwhelmingly in favor of being able to transfer the token, which finally becomes a freely transferable token. Listing of MEXC is however, among the first concrete measures towards wider market access. MEXC has had some criticism from some traders, recently for $3.1 million worth of user funds frozen. As multiple critics have suggested on Twitter, MEXC promoting WLFI is the larger marketing push to get this controversy out of everyone’s mind.

Outlook

Therefore, World Liberty Financial announcement marks the beginning of WLFI’s listing. The exchange will be leveraging high liquidity and an established market with the promise of zero-fee trading. Despite this, questions remain over the sustainability of the project over the longer term, what the point of the stablecoin $USD1 is, and the credibility of political connections, among other things. After WLFI arrives on the market, its future will depend on how it will be able to obtain real-life adoption and to what extent the regulators and the crypto community will be able to audit it.
