Binance Expands Trading With Trump-Linked World Liberty Financial’s Stablecoin

2025/12/12 11:18

Crypto exchange Binance is expanding the role of USD1 (USD1), the stablecoin of Trump-linked crypto project WLFI$0.1462, overhauling part of its stablecoin infrastructure with the token.

Starting Thursday, the exchange will offer new trading pairs — BNB/USD1, ETH/USD1 and SOL/USD1 — giving users broader access to trade with WLFI’s dollar-backed stablecoin, according to a press release. It also offers zero-fee exchange between USD1 and the two largest stablecoins, Circle’s USDC and Tether’s USDT.

At the same time, Binance will convert all reserves supporting its BUSD-pegged token (B-Token) into USD1. That process is expected to be completed within seven days. After that, USD1 will be part of the collateral backing used across Binance’s systems, including in margin trading and other internal liquidity operations.

USD1 is fully backed by U.S. Treasury bills, cash and equivalents, and is redeemable 1:1 for dollars. It currently has a $2.7 billion market capitalization, ranking sixth among stablecoins, according to RWA.xyz data. The token gained attention after a $2 billion investment in Binance from Abu Dhabi’s MGX was settled in USD1.

The move follows Donald Trump granting Binance founder Changpeng “CZ” Zhao a pardon in October, a decision that sparked scrutiny over the president’s crypto business dealings. Zhao served a four-month prison sentence after pleading guilty in November 2023 to violating the Bank Secrecy Act.

Welcome to the US Crypto News Morning Briefing—your essential rundown of the most important developments in crypto for the day ahead. Grab a coffee because the firms shaping crypto’s future are not just building products, but also trying to reshape how capital flows. Crypto News of the Day: VanEck Maps Next Frontier of Crypto Venture Investing VanEck, a Wall Street player known for financial “firsts,” is pushing that legacy into Web3. The firsts include pioneering US gold funds and launching one of the earliest spot Bitcoin ETFs. Sponsored Sponsored “Financial instruments have always been a kind of tokenization. From seashells to traveler’s checks, from relational databases to today’s on-chain assets. You could even joke that VanEck’s first gold mutual funds were the original ‘tokenized gold,’” Juan C. Lopez, General Partner at VanEck Ventures, told BeInCrypto. That same instinct drives the firm’s venture bets. Lopez said VanEck goes beyond writing checks and brings the full weight of the firm. This extends from regulatory proximity to product experiments to founders building the next phase of crypto infrastructure. Asked about key investment priorities, Lopez highlighted stablecoins. “We care deeply about three questions: How do we accelerate stablecoin ubiquity? What will users want to do with them once highly distributed? And what net new assets can we construct now that we have sophisticated market infrastructure?” Lopez added. However, VanEck is not limiting itself to the hottest narrative, acknowledging that decentralized finance (DeFi) is having a renaissance. The VanEck executive also noted that success will depend on new approaches to identity and programmable compliance layered on public blockchains.
