The company is set to implement its <strong data-start="227" data-end="261">World Liberty Financial (<a href="https://coinengineer.net/blog/trump-family-wlfi-token-fundraising/">WLFI</a>)</strong> treasury strategy through a registered direct offering and a concurrent private placement totaling $1.5 billion.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p data-start="2988" data-end="3227">Innovation never slows in crypto. As real-world assets (RWAs) converge with decentralized finance (DeFi), a game-changing partnership has emerged to reshape the landscape — and it might just define the next evolution of stablecoin utility.</p>
<h2 data-start="3229" data-end="3293">Strategic Alliance Between Plume and World Liberty Financial</h2>
<p data-start="3295" data-end="3542"><strong data-start="3295" data-end="3304">Plume</strong>, the EVM-compatible blockchain purpose-built for the next generation of RWA integration, has announced a strategic partnership with <strong data-start="3437" data-end="3464">World Liberty Financial</strong>. The goal: to fast-track the multichain expansion of the <strong data-start="3522" data-end="3530">USD1</strong> stablecoin.</p>
<hr />
<p data-start="3544" data-end="3812"><em>You Might Be Interested In: <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a style="color: #0000ff;" href="https://coinengineer.net/blog/elon-musk-talks-about-the-name-of-a-new-memecoin/">Elon Musk Talks About the Name of a New Memecoin!</a></span></em></p>
<hr />
<p data-start="3544" data-end="3812">Previously anchored to the <strong data-start="3571" data-end="3594">Binance Smart Chain</strong>, <strong data-start="3596" data-end="3604">USD1</strong> now becomes a <strong data-start="3619" data-end="3641">core reserve asset</strong> in the <strong data-start="3649" data-end="3658">Plume</strong> ecosystem, backing its native stablecoin pUSD. This move empowers users to access institutional-grade RWA finance across Plume&#8217;s rapidly growing network.</p>

<h2 data-start="3814" data-end="3864">USD1: A New Standard in Stablecoin Reliability</h2>
<p data-start="3866" data-end="4065">Redeemable 1:1 for the U.S. Dollar and backed fully by U.S. government money market funds and equivalents, <strong data-start="3973" data-end="3981">USD1</strong> avoids complex yield mechanisms, prioritizing clarity and <strong data-start="4040" data-end="4063">institutional trust</strong>.</p>
<p data-start="4067" data-end="4337"><strong data-start="4067" data-end="4080">Chris Yin</strong>, CEO of Plume, highlighted, <em>&#8220;Being selected by World Liberty Financial as their strategic multichain partner confirms our vision. With USD1 embedded into our infrastructure, we open up composable new use cases that reshape how RWAs interact with DeFi.&#8221;</em></p>
<h2 data-start="4339" data-end="4388">A New Chapter for Yield and Collateralization</h2>
<p data-start="4390" data-end="4666">Following the launch of Plume’s mainnet — which debuted with over $250M in real-world asset value and 100,000+ wallets — USD1 now unlocks new yield opportunities within Nest, Plume&#8217;s flagship staking protocol. It also provides a <strong data-start="4619" data-end="4648">stable form of collateral</strong> for RWA exposure.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p data-start="3015" data-end="3312">One of the most politically charged crypto projects is nearing a critical turning point. As digital asset regulation tightens in the U.S., <strong data-start="3174" data-end="3201">World Liberty Financial</strong>, backed by former President Donald Trump, is preparing to unlock trading access for its native token <strong data-start="3303" data-end="3311">WLFI</strong>.</p>
<h2 data-start="3314" data-end="3642">Token Transferability Coming Soon</h2>
<p data-start="3314" data-end="3642">On Wednesday, <strong data-start="3368" data-end="3395">World Liberty Financial</strong> announced via X that its team is working to make the <strong data-start="3449" data-end="3457">WLFI</strong> token transferable and tradable.</p>
<blockquote>
<p data-start="3314" data-end="3642"><em>“You asked to make WLFI transferable — we heard you,” the post read. “The team is working behind the scenes to make it happen. Big news coming soon.”</em></p>

<hr />
<p data-start="3644" data-end="3924"><strong data-start="3644" data-end="3652">WLFI</strong> grants holders the ability to vote and propose governance changes, but transfers have been restricted. The token has a total supply of 100 billion, with 25 billion sold through public sales, raising $550 million. According to ICODrops, private rounds were also conducted.</p>
<h2 data-start="3926" data-end="4227">Corporate Interest and Mobile App Launch</h2>
<p data-start="3926" data-end="4227">At a New York conference, <strong data-start="3999" data-end="4016">World Liberty</strong> co-founder Zak Folkman said there&#8217;s growing interest from public companies looking to integrate <strong data-start="4113" data-end="4121">WLFI</strong> into their corporate treasuries.

<h2 data-start="4229" data-end="4515">USD1 Stablecoin Audit on the Horizon</h2>
<p data-start="4229" data-end="4515">In parallel, the company is planning to release the first independent audit report for its stablecoin <strong data-start="4374" data-end="4382">USD1</strong>, according to Reuters. Launched in March, <strong data-start="4425" data-end="4433">USD1</strong> is backed entirely by U.S. Treasury bills, dollar deposits, and cash equivalents.</p>
<p data-start="4517" data-end="4673">Earlier this month, <strong data-start="4537" data-end="4564">World Liberty Financial</strong> distributed <strong data-start="4577" data-end="4585">USD1</strong> tokens to <strong data-start="4596" data-end="4604">WLFI</strong> holders as part of an onchain airdrop test and promotional campaign.</p>
<p data-start="4675" data-end="4906">With the Trump administration’s vocal support for <strong data-start="4725" data-end="4739">stablecoin</strong> innovation and U.S. regulatory reform, <strong data-start="4779" data-end="4806">World Liberty Financial</strong> seems to be positioning itself at the center of a growing DeFi and digital currency infrastructure.</p>
