World Liberty Financial Launches 8.4M WLFI Token Airdrop Targeting Early USD1 Participants

World Liberty Financial to Airdrop 8.4M WLFI Tokens to Early USD1 Users

World Liberty Financial, the Trump-linked stablecoin venture, announced plans to distribute 8.4 million WLFI governance tokens to early participants in its USD1 Points Program, rewarding users who helped boost adoption of its USD1 stablecoin.

Launched two months ago, the USD1 loyalty initiative incentivized users on partner exchanges to trade, hold, and utilize the stablecoin. Since then, the program has generated more than $500 million in trading activity, helping USD1 climb to the sixth-largest stablecoin by market capitalization, according to CoinGecko data.

The WLFI distribution will be carried out across six centralized exchanges — Gate.io, KuCoin, LBank, HTX Global, Flipster, and MEXC — with each platform determining its own eligibility criteria and distribution timeline.

In a post on X, World Liberty highlighted that the airdrop targets users who earned points by trading USD1 pairs or maintaining USD1 balances, describing the move as a way to “reward the community that helped drive early growth.”

The company said the USD1 Points Program will remain active, alongside new initiatives focused on DeFi integrations, real-world asset (RWA) exposure, and additional reward mechanisms aimed at deepening user engagement.

World Liberty added that its incentive-driven approach is central to expanding USD1’s ecosystem, reinforcing liquidity, and bridging traditional and decentralized finance.
