Trump-Linked WLFI Expands USD1 on Solana With Major Mint

World Liberty Financial (WLFI) has launched its USD1 stablecoin on the Solana blockchain, marking a major expansion of the project. After it was launched, an enormous minting activity produced 100 million USD1 tokens on the network, according to Lookonchain.


Such a decision demonstrated the intention of WLFI to employ fast and high-performance chains to mint its stablecoin. An announcement teasing the USD1 launch on Solana was celebrated by Solana co-founder of Solana, Anatoly Yakovenko, indicating his firm support for the project.

WLFI said the launch marked the project’s aim of bringing together internet capital markets and stablecoins. The link to President Donald Trump gives the stablecoin broader visibility beyond crypto-native communities. The exchange appeal is already visible, with Coinbase confirming plans to list USD1.

The 100 million mint confirmed WLFI’s immediate commitment to Solana. On-chain data showed the transaction as one of the largest stablecoin mints on the network this year. The launch introduced a high liquidity pool which can now be used by traders on Solana to lend, trade and settle. This mint emphasized the rise in popularity of Solana among key stablecoins issuers.

By launching USD1 on Solana, WLFI has positioned itself to compete with incumbents and benefit from the high speed and lower transaction fees on Solana.

WLFI Secures Exchange Backing Ahead of Governance Token Debut

WLFI also reported that its governance token would be launched on top exchanges. According to HTX, WLFI will be listed on September 1, 2025. Deposits are already live and users can trade the following pairs like WLFI/USDT or WLFI/USD1.


KuCoin simultaneously revealed a world premiere listing of WLFI on the same date. It described the token as the foundation of a DeFi protocol designed to support USD-based stablecoins and safeguard the global role of the dollar. The dual listing came after WLFI secured over $2.26 billion in funding ahead of its September 1 launch, underscoring the scale of its market entry.


Before the mint, WLFI executed a series of coordinated moves across exchanges to increase USD1 adoption and strengthen its governance token’s role. KuCoin also introduced USD1 points Program. It offers rewards for trading, staking and holding USD1. Maker limit orders are doubled with the program. Active users are also provided with unique privileges.
