World Liberty Financial Drops $47 in Stablecoins to WLFI Holders Ahead of Wallet Launch
In a surprise move, Trump-backed crypto firm World Liberty Financial has airdropped $47 worth of its USD1 stablecoin to all participants in its WLFI token sale.
The giveaway comes as USD1—a dollar-pegged stablecoin backed by U.S. Treasuries and fiat reserves—gains momentum following a key integration with Chainlink’s cross-chain protocol (CCIP), expanding its reach across multiple blockchains.
Though USD1’s $200 million market cap is still dwarfed by stablecoin leaders like Tether’s USDT and Circle’s USDC, the project has drawn outsized attention thanks to its Trump affiliation and its involvement in MGX’s $2 billion investment in Binance.
The $47 distribution may not move markets, but it has stirred renewed interest among token holders and fueled buzz on social media platform X.
The timing aligns with World Liberty Financial’s next big step: launching its own crypto wallet in the near future.
