WLFI sues Justin Sun for defamation, accusing him of orchestrating a coordinated smear campaign to depress the token’s price
World Liberty Financial (WLFI) has filed a defamation lawsuit against Justin Sun. WLFI alleges that Blue Anthem—a company affiliated with Sun—purchased $WLFI tokens in November 2024 and immediately engaged in prohibited activities, including transferring tokens to Binance. After WLFI froze the relevant tokens in accordance with its sales terms, Sun did not seek a good-faith resolution; instead, he orchestrated a coordinated smear campaign—hiring influencers, deploying bots, and disseminating false information to over 4 million followers, falsely labeling WLFI’s governance as a “scam” and accusing it of containing a “backdoor,” with the intent of driving the token price “to rock bottom.” WLFI states that the token freeze functionality was explicitly disclosed in its sales terms, that its governance mechanism is transparent and community-driven, and that it will pursue legal action against Sun.
