The New York Attorney General Leticia James is retaliating against President Trump by blocking crypto exchanges from trading WLFI. New York is where the stock market is, and all that money. This is why the price is suppressed.

If you live in NY, and try to buy WLFI, your exchange will tell you that you can’t buy WLFI in NY. I tried with Coinbase and Robinhood.

Is there actually evidence that this is due to Letitia James targeting Trump or is it just one more symptom of New York’s stifling crypto restrictions? There’s a lot of crypto things I can do in North Carolina that you can’t do in New York.

In NY, the state AG (James) is in charge of finances (including crypto). The blocking of WLFI comes from her office. When restrictions are in place, they affect all the currencies or exchanges. This is the only currency or token individually blocked.

There’s nothing to swap. It just won’t let me buy. It also says “even if I was a resident of NY in the last 45 days buying is restricted”.
No exchange operating in NY is allowed buy/sell WLFI in NY
If there is a method to interfere with others’ freedom, it will eventually be used by powers to do so.
May decentralized blockchains never provide methods for such interference.
