🔍 WLFI reveals details on wallet freezes

According to official data, $WLFI is frozen on 272 wallets:

▪️ 215 — hacked;
▪️ 50 — owners reported compromise;
▪️ 5 — flagged as high risk;

▪️ before the bear claws it back down in 2026.

So the regulator that wants to control crypto… can’t even ctrl+S its own files 🤷
