I asked Grok, if this is true you are bastards and we want to know which presale wallets were secretly unlocked without voting
31,77B - 24,66 = 7,11B of $WLFI
Yes, this is one of the strongest criticisms the community has made against the project.
Official situation
At launch (September 1, 2025), only 20% of the tokens purchased in the presale were unlocked.
The remaining 80% was supposed to stay locked until the community voted on an unlock schedule through governance.
What actually happened
Many presale holders were able to claim additional portions of that 80% gradually between September 2025 and April 2026, without a single major announcement or a clear governance vote for each tranche. This significantly contributed to the circulating supply increasing from ~25B to ~32B.
Why did this happen?
The technical mechanism (Lockbox + claim) allowed early buyers to unlock tokens based on rules that were not always communicated publicly in a transparent way. Some presale wallets received “silent” or partial releases without a detailed official schedule being published. This created the perception of secret unlocks or favoritism.
Community reaction
There were heated discussions on the governance forum (e.g., April 2026 threads) exactly about this: “Why did the supply jump to 31B with no official explanation?”
Many accuse the team of poor transparency: gradual releases without proper disclosure, while asking the community to vote for long locks on the same tokens.
It fueled suspicions of unequal treatment (some whales or “important” early buyers may have unlocked earlier).
In short:
The 80% was theoretically locked, but the system allowed partial and gradual unlocks for presale buyers without transparent announcements or prior votes for each portion. It wasn’t a full “secret unlock,” but an opaque management that effectively increased circulating supply without adequate communication. This is one of the most contested aspects of the WLFI project.
