The stablecoin, minted by World Liberty Fi, will have a limited period for subscriptions, running from December 24 to January 23, 2026. USD1 is represented on Binance through the USD1/USDT pair. Additionally, Binance has suggested users can acquire the token through the P2P Express market. Existing holders can deposit the USD1 into their Binance account. Will USD1 expand its influence? USD1 already has most of its supply active on the BNB Chain, with an even higher total float of over $2.85B . The token has been added to multiple DeFi protocols, though with a much lower APY. The stablecoin is already active and can gain yield through PancakeSwap, Uniswap , and Venus Protocol. However, the addition to Binance’s official yield program will give the token more exposure.

Large-scale investors and institutions have abandoned most other risky narratives, instead choosing the most liquid ecosystems. Can WLFI make a comeback? The increased influence of USD1 sparked a discussion on the eventual growth of the World Liberty Fi project. The platform is expected to launch an app in early 2026, potentially reviving the WLFI token. Before the latest yield product launch, USD1 was widely used in meme token pairs in the Binance ecosystem. For a brief period, those pairs were one of the liveliest meme token hubs. The extremely volatile behavior of memes led to a withdrawal of users. Now, USD1 may be used in a much more predictable way, with yield accrued daily into user accounts. As of December 24, WLFI tokens traded above $0.13, up from a local low of $0.12 in the past week. WLFI has not been instrumental to the ecosystem, and did not rise even after World Liberty Fi added buybacks. Get $50 free to trade crypto when you sign up to Bybit now
