World Liberty Financial to Reward Early USD1 Users With 8.4M WLFI Token Airdrop
World Liberty Financial (WLFI), the Trump-backed stablecoin issuer, announced plans to airdrop 8.4 million WLFI governance tokens to early users of its USD1 Points Program, marking a major reward phase for early adopters who helped grow the project’s footprint.
The initiative comes two months after the launch of the USD1 loyalty campaign, which incentivized trading, holding, and on-platform activity across select partner exchanges. Since then, the program has generated more than $500 million in trading activity, helping USD1 rise to the sixth-largest stablecoin by market capitalization, according to CoinGecko.
The airdrop will be distributed across six centralized exchanges — Gate.io, KuCoin, LBank, HTX Global, Flipster, and MEXC — with each determining its own eligibility criteria and timing.
In a post on X, World Liberty said the allocation will go to traders who accumulated points by maintaining USD1 balances or trading USD1 pairs on these exchanges.
The company added that the USD1 Points Program will continue, alongside new DeFi integrations, additional reward campaigns, and efforts to expand USD1’s use in real-world asset (RWA) markets.
According to World Liberty, the loyalty-driven model has been key to USD1’s rapid adoption and reflects its goal of merging traditional finance with decentralized innovation.
