World Liberty Financial has announced plans to distribute 8.4 million WLFI governance tokens to members of its USD1 Points loyalty program. The rewards will go to users who earned points by trading USD1 pairs on partner exchanges and maintaining balances of the stablecoin.
The loyalty program was launched two months ago to promote the USD1 ecosystem and incentivize early adopters. According to the company, WLFI tokens will grant holders the right to participate in protocol governance, allowing them to vote on future upgrades and strategic decisions.
Distribution Across Major Exchanges
The initial WLFI distribution will take place on six centralized exchanges — Gate.io, KuCoin, LBank, HTX Global, Flipster, and MEXC. Each exchange will set its own criteria and specific timeline for the token drop.
Representatives from World Liberty Financial confirmed that the program will expand further, adding new trading pairs, earning opportunities, and DeFi integrations in the near future. The company emphasized that the initiative aims to strengthen USD1’s adoption and position it as a stable cornerstone of the digital asset ecosystem.
Future Plans and USD1’s Market Position
The World Liberty project, supported by members of the Trump family, also intends to develop real-world asset tokenization, potentially linking these efforts with the USD1 stablecoin.
Company CEO Zach Vickoff stated at the Token2049 conference that a debit card launch is planned for late 2025 or early 2026, allowing users to spend USD1 directly in the real world.
USD1, a U.S. dollar–pegged stablecoin backed by BitGo reserves, currently ranks sixth globally by market capitalization at approximately $2.98 billion.
Earlier this year, World Liberty Financial introduced a WLFI buyback and burn mechanism designed to support long-term token value and ecosystem growth.
