WLFI sues Justin Sun for defamation, accusing him of orchestrating a coordinated smear campaign to depress the token’s price
World Liberty Financial (WLFI) has filed a defamation lawsuit against Justin Sun. WLFI alleges that Blue Anthem—a company affiliated with Sun—purchased $WLFI tokens in November 2024 and immediately engaged in prohibited activities, including transferring tokens to Binance. After WLFI froze the relevant tokens in accordance with its sales terms, Sun did not seek a good-faith resolution; instead, he orchestrated a coordinated smear campaign—hiring influencers, deploying bots, and disseminating false information to over 4 million followers, falsely labeling WLFI’s governance as a “scam” and accusing it of containing a “backdoor,” with the intent of driving the token price “to rock bottom.” WLFI states that the token freeze functionality was explicitly disclosed in its sales terms, that its governance mechanism is transparent and community-driven, and that it will pursue legal action against Sun.

T. Rowe Price Responds to Including Dogecoin in Crypto ETF: Asset Management Companies Should Not Exclude Meme Coins
According to CoinDesk, U.S. asset management giant T. Rowe Price included Dogecoin in its portfolio after launching the industry's first actively managed multi-token spot crypto ETF, sparking market attention. Its Head of Digital Assets, Blue Macellari, responded that including mature Meme coins in the portfolio is not to chase online hype, but to more comprehensively reflect the crypto market. Active management means making judgments based on the investment value of each token, rather than directly excluding them simply because a certain asset class is controversial. It is reported that the T. Rowe Price Active Crypto ETF (TKNZ) primarily allocates to Bitcoin and Ethereum, which together account for approximately 60% of the fund's positions. The third-largest holding is BNB. Currently, only one Meme coin, Dogecoin (DOGE), is included, representing about 1.26% of the fund's asset allocation. Regarding the future crypto ETF market, Blue Macellari expects the industry to gradually become more segmented. In the future, large-cap "blue-chip" crypto ETFs, small-cap growth crypto ETFs, and thematic ETFs based on different sectors may emerge. T. Rowe Price does not plan to compete with institutions like BlackRock on passive crypto investment products, but instead focuses on the active management space, seeking asset allocation opportunities in the rapidly changing crypto market.

Rowe Price, said that meme coin trading can serve as a real-world stress test for blockchain networks, used to observe the scalability and reliability of the network. T. Rowe Price manages $1.9 trillion in assets and expects that as the market matures, crypto ETFs will expand from Bitcoin products to actively managed, sector-specific, and multi-token funds.
