WLFI token falls 18% as governance vote branded a scam

The proposal will keep 17 billion early supporter WLFI tokens from being tradeable for another two years. After this, a two-year “linear vest” will take place, where the tokens will be gradually unlocked for the market.　　This means some early investors will have to wait another four years to see the entirety of their WLFI tokens unlocked.　　Yes votes were also practically coerced into voting, as WLFI stated that token holders voting against “will continue to be locked indefinitely,” and restricted to just governance vote participation.　　The vote wasnt well-received　　In the WLFI forum, theres a mix of support and discontent over the two-year locking schedule and two-year vesting period.　　Some outright called WLFI a “scammer.” This response was also common across X in response to WLFIs announcement.　　Indeed, some users implied that the vote wasnt democratic and that it was already predetermined. One user mocked the project for suggesting it was “community governance.”　　As crypto trader White Whale said, “Proposal: agree with our absurd plan or lose your tokens forever.”　　Users mocked the vote for coercing mechanics.　　One of WLFIs biggest former supporters, Tron CEO Justin Sun, is now suing the firm over its blacklisting of his tokens.　　Earlier this month, Sun said, “This proposal is bad for the

Solana news: Germany’s AllUnity expands EURAU to Solana as euro stablecoins gain traction

AllUnity, a joint venture backed by DWS, Flow Traders and Galaxy Digital (GLXY), took its euro-backed stablecoin, EURAU, to the Solana blockchain, extending the tokens reach to a high-speed network often used for payments and trading.　　EURAU, which debuted last July on Ethereum, is fully reserved and issued under a regulated e-money framework aligned with the European Unions MiCA rules, the company said in an emailed statement. By adding Solana, AllUnity aims to offer faster settlement and lower transaction costs for euro-denominated transfers.　　The setup allows businesses and developers to move euros onchain in seconds. Payments firms, for example, could send cross-border payouts to contractors in real time instead of waiting days for bank transfers, and the same mechanism can also support trading, lending or treasury management using a stable euro unit.　　The move reflects growing interest in non-dollar stablecoins, especially in Europe, where firms seek digital assets that meet regulatory standards. While U.S. dollar tokens dominate the $300 billion stabelcoin market, euro-pegged tokens have seen rapid growth, doubling since the start of 2025 to almost $1 billion.　　The S&P projected the market could reach 570 billion euros ($672 billion) by 2030.
