World Liberty Financial Stablecoin USD1 Lands on Prediction Market Myriad

In brief

  • Prediction market Myriad is integrating the USD1 stablecoin launched by Trump-backed DeFi project World Liberty Financial.
  • Myriad’s USD1 rollout will feature its Candles product, with users able to fund their positions in these markets with crypto or fiat through a partnership with crypto payments firm MoonPay.
  • The launch of Myriad’s Candles will also kick off the phased rollout of the Myriad In-App Wallet, with payments powered by MoonPay.

Prediction market Myriad will integrate USD1, the stablecoin launched by Trump-backed DeFi project World Liberty Financial. With the integration, Myriad becomes “the first prediction market to partner with WLFI to launch USD1 pools,” bringing USD1 on BNB Chain to the platform.

The integration of USD1 on Myriad “expands the real-world utility of stable, dollar-backed digital assets in emerging on-chain markets,” said Zach Witkoff, Co-Founder of World Liberty Financial. He added that prediction markets are a “growing category within decentralized finance,” with the Myriad integration bringing USD1 to “an environment where transparency, stability and user trust are essential.”

Myriad co-founder and president Farokh Sarmad called the integration a “full-circle moment,” following his interviews with Donald Trump and his sons Don Jr. and Eric at Mar-a-Lago in September 2024. “I knew WLFI would be something the Trump family and their partners would take very seriously,” Sarmad said.

Myriad’s USD1 rollout will feature its Candles product, previously announced as part of the prediction market’s integration with BNB Chain. Through a partnership with crypto payments firm MoonPay, Myriad users can fund their positions in these markets with crypto or fiat. Designed for speed and simplicity, Candles are automated markets built around auto-resolution, short timeframes, and continuous flow, enabling users to take part in fast-paced prediction or trading environments without waiting for long settlement cycles.

“We’re enabling a fast, reliable payment experience that simplifies how users access and engage with onchain markets, supporting Myriad as it continues to scale its platform,” said Ivan Soto-Wright, co-founder and CEO of MoonPay.

Candles will be further expanded through a “phased migration” in early 2026, adding new market formats and expanding their functionality.

The launch of Myriad’s Candles in partnership with WLFI will also kick off the phased rollout of the Myriad In-App Wallet, where payments will also be powered by MoonPay. Designed to deliver a “fully unified experience across the Myriad ecosystem,” the integration represents a “significant step forward” for the platform, Myriad Co-Founder and COO Ilan Hazan told Decrypt. “We believe it will accelerate adoption, strengthen product capabilities, and position Myriad for its next phase of growth.”

What is World Liberty Financial?

First announced in August 2024, World Liberty Financial is a DeFi project co-founded by U.S. President Donald Trump and led by DeFi builders Chase Herro and Zak Folkman, along with other members of the Trump family and Zach Witkoff.

Trump is listed as “co-founder emeritus” of World Liberty Financial, having stepped back from direct involvement in the project upon taking office in January 2025.

Billed as a “next-generation financial platform,” the platform promises to “unlock financial access for all” through its dollar-pegged stablecoin USD1, which runs on Ethereum and BNB Chain.

What is Myriad?

Launched by Decrypt’s parent company Dastan, Myriad is a platform that integrates prediction markets alongside written and video content from media outlets including Decrypt and Rug Radio.

Myriad aims to turn prediction markets into a “social layer for truth discovery,” Sarmad said, with the platform having hit a cumulative trading volume of over $167 million since its launch, alongside integrations with BNB Chain and Trust Wallet.

SFC drafting licensing framework for trading, custody, and stablecoin issuers. New rules will cover stablecoin issuers, digital asset trading, and custody services. Hong Kong is stepping up its digital finance ambitions with a policy blueprint that places tokenization at the core of banking innovation.  In the 2025 Policy Address, Chief Executive John Lee outlined measures that will see the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) encourage commercial banks to roll out tokenized deposits and expand the city’s live tokenized-asset transactions. Hong Kong’s Project Ensemble to Drive Tokenized Deposits Lee confirmed that the HKMA will “continue to take forward Project Ensemble, including encouraging commercial banks to introduce tokenised deposits, and promoting live transactions of tokenised assets, such as the settlement of tokenised money market funds with tokenised deposits.” The initiative aims to embed tokenized deposits, bank liabilities represented as blockchain-based tokens, into mainstream financial operations. These deposits could facilitate the settlement of money-market funds and other financial instruments more quickly and efficiently. To ensure a controlled rollout, the HKMA will utilize its regulatory sandbox to enable banks to test tokenized products while enhancing risk management. Tokenized Bonds to Become a Regular Feature Beyond deposits, the government intends to make tokenized bond issuance a permanent element of Hong Kong’s financial markets. After successful pilots, including green bonds, the HKMA will help regularize the issuance process to build deep and liquid markets for digital bonds accessible to both local and international investors.
