- WLFI holders received $47 in USD1 airdrop via Ethereum network
- USD1 market cap hits $2.18B after Binance listing and airdrop
- Governance vote could make WLFI tradable ahead of 2026 schedule
World Liberty Financial has distributed $4 million worth of its USD1 stablecoin to 85,106 WLFI holders in a major airdrop. The airdrop delivered $47 USD1 to each eligible wallet after a governance campaign ended in May. The event adds interest to the Trump-affiliated blockchain initiative, which raises expectations for trading WLFI tokens.
The distribution was carried out via the Ethereum network and excluded people from New York and other restricted areas. All wallets that participated in the WLFI token sale got USD1 without needing to make manual claims. This method made it possible to carry out the process without any technical problems.
The number of distributed tokens per wallet, 47, corresponds with Donald Trump’s number as the 47th U.S. President. This symbolic value boosted attention on X, where several holders confirmed successful receipt of the tokens. Lookonchain, a blockchain analytics firm, also spotted the activity on June 4, which drew more attention.
WLFI token Holders Approve USD1 Airdrop
WLFI token holders voted for the airdrop proposal on the project’s governance platform. More than 12,000 people voted, and 99.96% of them supported the plan. The project was approved on May 15 which allowed for the execution in early June as outlined in the roadmap.
USD1 is backed by U.S. Treasuries, cash, and similar assets while BitGo holds it to ensure extra security. Launched in April 2025, it has attracted more people to use it due to increased market trust. According to DefiLlama, the market cap has surged to $2.18 billion.
The airdrop intends to award early supporters, accelerate the use of USD1, and test the tokens’ distribution. The smooth process shows the maturity of World Liberty Financial’s technical operations. The event proves it can carry out accurate community-based initiatives.
WLFI Could Be Tradable and Listed on Exchanges Soon
Although WLFI tokens cannot be traded, the platform shows a potential shift may happen soon. A governance vote is expected to approve WLFI trading, but no date has been confirmed. The whitepaper states that WLFI could be traded in 2026 unless the community votes otherwise.
The USD1 airdrop success has raised optimism that WLFI will soon be listed on exchanges. World Liberty Financial has said it is considering the move in response to community feedback. The recent wallet transactions and market sentiment reflect rising interest.
USD1 was recently listed on Binance, which made it easier for investors to access and trade the stablecoin. The number of trades increased over 6,700% to a high of $140 million before it stabilized. The project has drawn a lot of attention from institutional and retail investors.
