Voting power would be measured by both stake size and remaining lock-up duration using a non-linear formula to limit concentration among the largest holders. The system also links staking to deposit incentives on $USD1, World Liberty’s flagship stablecoin.
The proposal also establishes Node and Super Node tiers for larger stakers, offering additional incentives such as access to licensed market makers for 1:1 $USD1 stablecoin conversions and prioritized partnership engagement.
To become a “Node,” users must stake at least 10 million $WLFI, valued at roughly $1 million at current prices.
These participants would gain access to licensed market makers facilitating 1:1 conversions of supported stablecoins such as USDT and USDC into $USD1, as well as $USD1 off-ramps into US dollars.
The move would redirect arbitrage profits from institutional market makers to committed token holders, while strengthening demand for $USD1 and tying governance power to long-term capital commitments.
To become a “Super Node,” participants must lock up a minimum of 50 million $WLFI. In return, holders would receive priority access to partnership discussions with the platform’s leadership, though commercial agreements remain subject to separate review.
The proposal will be put to a seven-day vote and must secure participation from at least one billion eligible tokens to be valid.
Staking-based governance models have gained traction across decentralized finance projects as developers seek mechanisms to align long-term incentives without relying on centralized oversight.
