What is World Liberty (WLFI)?

World Liberty (WLFI) is a cryptocurrency project that has developed its own token. The specifics of its use case and market position are currently overshadowed by the dispute with Justin Sun.

Will Justin Sun's wallet be unfrozen?

There's no immediate indication that Sun's wallet will be unfrozen. The resolution depends heavily on the outcome of his dispute with WLFI, whether through legal channels or a private settlement.

Can smart contract code be altered after deployment?

Generally, once a smart contract is deployed on a blockchain, its core logic is immutable (cannot be changed). However, some contracts are designed with upgradeability features or administrative functions that can allow for modifications or the execution of specific functions, like blacklisting, if those capabilities were built-in from the start. This is precisely where the controversy lies.
