World Liberty Launches WebApp for Lending as USD1 Supply Nears 3.5 Billion

Trump-backed World Liberty Financial has launched World Liberty Markets, a new lending and borrowing platform powered by Dolomite, as part of its growing product suite tied to the USD1 stablecoin. The platform is now live on the company’s website and supports USD1, WLFI, ETH, cbBTC, USDC, and USDT for both lending and collateral.

The launch marks the second major product from the Trump-backed crypto project. The company introduced USD1 in early 2025, and the dollar-backed stablecoin has since reached a circulating supply of nearly $3.5 billion. According to data, this places it just behind PayPal’s PYUSD among the top fiat-pegged digital assets by market cap.

World Liberty Markets is designed to provide users with a way to deploy USD1 and other supported assets to earn yield or access borrowing. The platform operates on Dolomite’s infrastructure, known for its transparent, real-time liquidity provisioning and high-speed asset settlement. According to the release, WLFI confirmed that features like a mobile app and extended asset support are already in the pipeline.

World Liberty Financial Lending Product Rollout Comes Amid Regulatory Ambitions 

The rollout of World Liberty Markets coincides with World Liberty Financial’s ongoing effort to formalize its presence in U.S. financial markets. Recently, a related entity recently submitted an application to the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) to establish a national trust bank. If approved, it would give WLFI full federal oversight over issuance, custody, and conversion of its stablecoin.

The company, which is controlled by the Trump family, has also launched initiatives to expand USD1’s use beyond trading. According to an X post, Binance has also introduced a USD1 booster program offering up to 20% APR via flexible products, limited to 50,000 USD1. 

Meanwhile, World Liberty’s USD1 Points Program has been integrated into the lending platform, rewarding eligible users who supply USD1 with points that can be used across future WLFI services.

Zak Folkman, co-founder and COO of World Liberty Financial, said in a press release that the new product helps move the ecosystem toward its long-term goal. “World Liberty Markets is a major step forward, and it’s just the first of many products we’re planning to roll out over the next 18 months,” he said.

However, despite the bullish announcements, WLFI's price has failed to recover fully after failing to break the resistance at $0.1703. At press time, WLFI price was trading at $0.1673, a 1.14% decline from the intraday high.

Wormhole launches reserve tying protocol revenue to token

Wormhole launches reserve tying protocol revenue to token

The post Wormhole launches reserve tying protocol revenue to token appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Wormhole is changing how its W token works by creating a new reserve designed to hold value for the long term. Announced on Wednesday, the Wormhole Reserve will collect onchain and offchain revenues and other value generated across the protocol and its applications (including Portal) and accumulate them into W, locking the tokens within the reserve. The reserve is part of a broader update called W 2.0. Other changes include a 4% targeted base yield for tokenholders who stake and take part in governance. While staking rewards will vary, Wormhole said active users of ecosystem apps can earn boosted yields through features like Portal Earn. The team stressed that no new tokens are being minted; rewards come from existing supply and protocol revenues, keeping the cap fixed at 10 billion. Wormhole is also overhauling its token release schedule. Instead of releasing large amounts of W at once under the old “cliff” model, the network will shift to steady, bi-weekly unlocks starting October 3, 2025. The aim is to avoid sharp periods of selling pressure and create a more predictable environment for investors. Lockups for some groups, including validators and investors, will extend an additional six months, until October 2028. Core contributor tokens remain under longer contractual time locks. Wormhole launched in 2020 as a cross-chain bridge and now connects more than 40 blockchains. The W token powers governance and staking, with a capped supply of 10 billion. By redirecting fees and revenues into the new reserve, Wormhole is betting that its token can maintain value as demand for moving assets and data between chains grows. This is a developing story.

It’s time for another season of Love Island Games. With fan-favorites returning in hopes of winning the $250,000 cash prize, read on to learn more about Love Island Games Season 2, including the release schedule so you don’t miss a second of drama. Love Island Games is a spinoff in the Love Island franchise that first premiered in 2023. The show follows a similar format to the original series, but with one major twist: all contestants are returning Islanders from previous seasons of Love Island from around the world, including the USA, UK, Australia and more. Another big difference is that games take on much more importance in Love Island Games than the mothership version, with the results “determining advantages, risks, and even who stays and who goes,” according to Peacock. Vanderpump Rules star Ariana Madix is taking over hosting duties for Love Island Games Season 2, replacing Love Island UK star Maya Jama who hosted the first season. Iain Stirling returns as the show’s narrator, while UK alum Maura Higgins will continue to host the Saturday show Love Island: Aftersun. ForbesWho’s In The ‘Love Island Games’ Season 2 Cast?

Justine had previously won Love Island USA Season 2 with Caleb Corprew, while Jack was a contestant on Love Island UK Season 4.
