DEGE crypto has surged nearly 350% overnight as the two-week-old meme coin garnered significant attention over the July 4 weekend due to its branding as ‘American People’s Meme Coin’.
It is gaining momentum due to loose connections with Donald Trump’s World Liberty Financial DeFi project, with many speculating that a mention of DEGE by the President could be forthcoming soon.

DEGE Crypto Self-Branded The ‘People’s Coin’ – Official Ties To World Liberty Financial?
DEGE crypto has risen nearly 5x in the past 24 hours due to a heavy marketing push as the American people’s meme coin and even having ‘Officially Endorsing @WorldLibertyFi’ in its X bio. However, it is still unknown what, if any, links there are between this new meme coin and the President’s DeFi platform.
The official World Liberty Financial social media accounts have yet to acknowledge DEGE crypto. However, this hasn’t stopped the meme coin project from basing its entire image around WLFI.
Dege Coin’s official mascot, a Doge character, can be seen wearing World Liberty Financial-branded hats and astronaut suits. The team is relentless in tagging both Donald Trump and the WLFI X account in nearly every post they make.
Regardless of whether there has been any acknowledgement of DEGE crypto from the World Liberty Financial side, this hasn’t deterred the project from making serious gains. As of today, it is up nearly 10 times from July 5. It has amassed more than 10,000 token holders in less than two weeks since going live.
The pro-American push and forced ties to the President and his DeFi project have generated a significant amount of hype and attention for the DEGE coin. This has driven its price up substantially since its launch on June 24.
As DEGE crypto is pumping so heavily on pure speculation, many are calling for a parabolic run if the World Liberty Financial team or the President himself makes any form of acknowledgement of the meme coin. If WLFI adopt DEGE as its official meme coin mascot, a run toward $100 million and even higher would seem extremely realistic.

Over the weekend, a select few crypto exchanges listed the WLFI token for pre-market trading. This allows users of the platform to trade in and out of the token. MEXC is the most notable, with data showing WLFI changing hands for around $0.21.
While pre-market trading is a volatile period for any token, it does provide a good indication of where the price will fall upon full release. Tristan Tate, brother of Andrew Tate, has stated his belief that WLFI is likely to increase by at least five times from here, assuming a rough launch price of $0.20.
$0.2 would equate to a $20 billion fully diluted valuation, which would instantly make it the 12th largest cryptocurrency by market cap. However, it is believed that only 20% of the supply will be unlocked at launch, which, at $0.2, would give WLFI a market cap of $4 billion, putting it at 38th by market cap.
The WLFI token is all but confirmed to be listed on all major exchanges from day one. This includes Coinbase, Binance and OKX. Analysts and investors are speculating that World Liberty Financial could easily become one of the top 10 crypto projects by market cap this year.
According to Arkham, the World Liberty Financial portfolio is valued at approximately $180 million. Over 90% of that amount held across the Ethereum network.
Another feather in WLFI’s cap is its USD stablecoin, built on the BNB Smart Chain (BSC). In less than three months, it has minted over $2.2 billion in tokens. This makes it the fifth-largest USD-backed stablecoin on the market.
It is also processing, on average, over $300 million in daily volume. This highlights a serious level of adoption across the BSC network. With World Liberty Financial building a complete end-to-end DeFi platform, underpinned by its USD stablecoin and its WLFI governance token, President Trump stands to be a part of one of the most significant web3 projects in 2025 and beyond.
