Is New York the only state that has fully blocked WLFI from trading? How does someone from NY, who bought early in the pre-sale, now sell in NY with this block in place?

As long as it’s in metamask, 
NY doesn’t exist anywhere. 
So when you decide to sell it, just don’t do it on an exchange, welcome to the world of decentralization 
.
You can’t buy/sell on Robinhood, Coinbase or any other exchange if you live in NY
I did once overhear a conversation sum folk saying it possible that politicians/local govt can be bought and sold there and some arent even very expensive… seems weird they wont let you buy or sell digital tokens if what them folk was saying was tru… but what do I know? Im from out of state…
But surely you could buy a stablecoin or other cryptocurrency and perform a swap on a DEX via your non-custodial wallet right? WLFI is multichain and now available in the open market. So Solana, BSC, Ethereum offer viable possibilities on the relevant DEXs.
The more important and disruptive that something is. The more opposition it will receive. We are early.

Most people here are not into tax evasion… Decentralization is a marketing term if you’re a law abiding citizen
I’d say you are making some big assumptions there friend 
Decentralization is not illegal. Decentralization does not mean tax evasion, they are two different concepts.
I did not talk about tax evasion, but about a loophole for transactions through decentralization, this does not mean that they will not declare them to the tax office, they are unrelated.
But you are wrong, they are extremely related. The reason why your original logic is deeply flawed, is that the concept of tax evasion (and AML and other real-world barriers) will prevent the concept of decentralization from happening in the first place. That’s why fiat on/off-ramp is where everyone getting creative gets f’ed. Decentralization is a cute marketing term in this space, and fools are falling for it. That’s all. Point in case: WLFI markets itself as decentralized, yet they have functionality to disable accounts (like Justin Sun’s and several others) as they see fit. Basically a worse version of banking.
You’re delusional.
I was indeed half-joking 
Yes. I just learned that, if I buy BTC, and send it to my non-custodial wallet, I can then exchange it for WLFI. It’s gonna cost me a little more, but it can be done.
Yes, but think about this a little more, and do some research on which networks offer transactions at a lower fee than BTC.
You’ll be transferring your BTC out of the exchange so a fee applies and swapping BTC for a token than exist outside of the BTC network, for example Ethereum, BSC and/or Solana on which WLFI tokens can be held and transacted.
Each network has it’s own fee structure for conducting transactions including swaps. So it’s worth considering which might be more appropriate for you. Considerations are: availability to buy in your locality, cost of transaction fees, speed to name a few.
Just saying that while you could, BTC is not your only option to exchange for WLFI. Other options including stablecoins could save you in fees and so allow you to gain more WLFI for the swap. A little research and some math could make your investment go further 
If this is something that you’ve already considered. Then good for you
