Key Takeaways:

  • WLFI expects individuals to stake unlocked tokens to vote and active participants can receive the yield of 2% APR.
  • Access OTC USD1 and partner benefits by participating Node (10 million WLFI) or Super Node (50 million WLFI).
  • This plan moves profit from stablecoin arbitrage business (from intermediaries) to long-term governance participation members.

Governance Now Requires Staking Commitment

According to this proposal, unlocked WLFI token holders need to stake these tokens to participate in governance voting. The minimum time of locking is 180 days. Locked token holders can still vote without supplementary stake request implementation.

The amount of your stake and the duration of time you stake are nonlinear in a formula that calculates your voting power. The system is created to eliminate the possibility of a few people having excessive influence yet rewarding those locking longer the rewards.

The payout is an approximate of 2% annually and is only gained when voting twice upon having the tokens locked. The payoffs are provided by WLFI treasury rather than profits.

Governance rights are not transferable and they decrease as your lock duration reduces. Simply put, the key to influence is seen in the level of commitment you have and not only the level of ownership.

Tiered Structure: Nodes and Super Nodes

Node Tier: 10M WLFI Threshold

A stake of 10 or more WLFI (about one million dollars nowadays) qualifies you to be a Node. Nodes receive simple staking privileges and have access to OTC instruments that allow them to exchange stablecoins with USD1. 

WLFI will cooperate with market makers who are licensed that investors/participants can swap 1:1 USD1 with USDT, USDC or other supported coins. This protocol will subsidize these agreements, by doing this, it can move arbitrage margins which previously held by institutional market makers, about 10-15 basis points of each cycle to participating Node members.

Nodes must complete KYC procedures and may also earn additional governance-token rewards tied to USDT-to-USD1 conversion volumes. These volume-based incentives are limited to the first 1,000 qualifying Nodes and settle every six months.

Super Nodes: $5M Governance Commitment

Super Nodes require a 50 million WLFI stake (estimated at approximately $5 million nowadays). They and all of their benefits as a Node in addition to being able to contact the WLFI team directly regarding partnership discussions.

Fed forecasts only one rate cut in 2026, a more conservative outlook than expected

Fed forecasts only one rate cut in 2026, a more conservative outlook than expected

The post Fed forecasts only one rate cut in 2026, a more conservative outlook than expected appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell talks to reporters following the regular Federal Open Market Committee meetings at the Fed on July 30, 2025 in Washington, DC. Chip Somodevilla | Getty Images The Federal Reserve is projecting only one rate cut in 2026, fewer than expected, according to its median projection. The central bank’s so-called dot plot, which shows 19 individual members’ expectations anonymously, indicated a median estimate of 3.4% for the federal funds rate at the end of 2026. That compares to a median estimate of 3.6% for the end of this year following two expected cuts on top of Wednesday’s reduction. A single quarter-point reduction next year is significantly more conservative than current market pricing. Traders are currently pricing in at two to three more rate cuts next year, according to the CME Group’s FedWatch tool, updated shortly after the decision. The gauge uses prices on 30-day fed funds futures contracts to determine market-implied odds for rate moves. Here are the Fed’s latest targets from 19 FOMC members, both voters and nonvoters: Zoom In IconArrows pointing outwards The forecasts, however, showed a large difference of opinion with two voting members seeing as many as four cuts. Three officials penciled in three rate reductions next year. “Next year’s dot plot is a mosaic of different perspectives and is an accurate reflection of a confusing economic outlook, muddied by labor supply shifts, data measurement concerns, and government policy upheaval and uncertainty,” said Seema Shah, chief global strategist at Principal Asset Management. The central bank has two policy meetings left for the year, one in October and one in December. Economic projections from the Fed saw slightly faster economic growth in 2026 than was projected in June, while the outlook for inflation was updated modestly higher for next year. There’s a lot of uncertainty…
