Trump-Linked World Liberty Financial Drops $47 in Stablecoins to WLFI Backers

In a headline-grabbing move, World Liberty Financial — the crypto firm tied to the Trump family — has airdropped $47 in its USD1 stablecoin to participants of its WLFI token sale.

The giveaway arrives as USD1, a dollar-pegged stablecoin backed by a mix of U.S. Treasuries and fiat, continues to gain traction following a recent integration with Chainlink’s cross-chain protocol (CCIP). While its market cap sits at $200 million — still well behind the likes of USDT and USDC — USD1’s political connections and its role in a $2 billion MGX investment in Binance have kept it in the spotlight.

The $47 airdrop may not be life-changing, but it’s served its purpose: sparking conversation and bringing WLFI holders back into the fold. Activity around the project has picked up on X (formerly Twitter), just as World Liberty Financial prepares to launch its own crypto wallet in the coming months.
