Political tokens (like WLFI) will serve as early warning signals for broader crypto market downturns if political tensions rise, identifiable by spikes in volume, divergences in volatility, and funding rate stress in the near future (within a year or so).
"If we see more political tensions, which, let's face it, are highly likely, then WLFI may have inadvertently provided the perfect template for spotting early warning signals from political tokens before it's too late. So if we want to avoid getting wrecked again, then we should probably be watching political tokens very closely, paying extra attention to any spikes in volume, any divergences in volatility, and any funding rate stress. If any of these materialize again, then well, I think you can work out the rest."
