USD1 climbs to 3rd-largest by daily trading volume at $1.25B.
Surge follows major UAE fund investment amid regulatory debate.
Raising transparency: audit pending, tradability, and app launch planned.
The USD1 stablecoin, issued by Trump-backed World Liberty Financial (WLF), recently achieved a remarkable milestone—$1.25 billion in 24‑hour trading volume, making it the world’s third‑largest stablecoin by daily volume. This unprecedented peak in activity signals strong market momentum just months after its March 2025 launch.
Why the Spike? Strategic Moves & Big Backers
Several key developments have contributed to USD1’s surge:
UAE Investment: Abu Dhabi’s Aqua 1 Foundation injected $100 million into WLF’s governance token $WLFI, and the MGX fund reportedly used USD1 in a $2 billion investment in Binance.
Governance & Growth: WLF plans to audit USD1 and launch a user‑friendly app, while $WLFI may soon become tradable—an indicator of deeper adoption.
Regulatory Scrutiny & Ethical Concerns
USD1’s expansion hasn’t gone unnoticed:
Ethics & Influence: Critics, including Senate Democrats Warren and Merkley, have raised red flags over conflicts of interest, citing possible foreign influence via UAE-backed investments.
Transparency Push: WLF’s upcoming stablecoin audit aims to bolster credibility; it will be published online soon.

What Comes Next for USD1?
With daily volumes reaching nine figures, USD1 may soon rival top-tier stablecoins like USDT or USDC. Key developments to watch:
Audit & App Release: A trusted audit and intuitive mobile app could drive mainstream crypto adoption.
Governance Token Tradability: If $WLFI becomes tradable, USD1’s ecosystem may see major activity.
Regulatory Outlook: Senate inquiries and potential legislation around conflict-of-interest may shape USD1’s future.
