BlockBeats News, February 24th, Eric Trump, the son of former President Donald Trump, once again responded to the deletion of WLFI-related tweets, stating, "The person spreading FUD is really a clown. I've been talking about cryptocurrency on Twitter all week and was the keynote speaker on the opening day of the World Liberty Forum. Don't be silly."
This morning, Eric Trump, co-founder of World Liberty Financial, deleted his retweet of the WLFI official tweet announcing "More USD1 trading pairs will be listed on Binance." Following this action, WLFI experienced a short-term drop of over 8%, and the USD1 stablecoin briefly unpegged to 0.9802 USDT. Currently, Eric Trump's personal profile still features the World Liberty Financial official account, and he has not extensively removed his previous tweets related to World Liberty Financial.
World Liberty Financial issued a statement on social media, stating: This morning, a coordinated attack was launched against USD1. Attackers compromised the accounts of multiple WLFI co-founders, hired KOLs to spread panic, and heavily shorted WLFI in an attempt to profit from this orchestrated chaos.
