On Mar. 25, WLFI confirmed the launch of USD1, a stablecoin backed 1:1 by cash, short-term U.S. Treasuries, and equivalents. The token is currently live on Ethereum and BNB Chain, with more networks to come.

The stablecoin is promoted as a safe substitute for algorithmic or undercollateralized tokens. WLFI was established in 2024 and positions itself as a decentralized finance platform that provides financial tools based on blockchain technology. Through its token sale, the project raised $550 million, including $75 million from Tron founder Justin Sun, who later joined the platform as an advisor. However, the firm has faced governance concerns and criticism over political influence due to its Trump connections. As reported by crypto.news on Apr. 1, The Trump family gained majority control of the platform in January by acquiring a 60% share through a new holding company, WLF Holdco LLC. As a result, they will control 60% of the company’s operating profits after the platform is fully operational, and they are also entitled to 75% of the token sales revenue under the new structure.
