#BinanceSafetyInsights USD1 Stablecoin Surges to 90% Circulation on BNB Chain Amid Zero Gas Fee Initiative
The pro-America stablecoin USD1 has reached a major adoption milestone, with nearly 90% of its total circulating supply now deployed on BNB Chain, according to the latest data from Dune Analytics. As of mid-April, over 113 million USD1 tokens have been issued, with approximately 101 million circulating on BNB Chain, highlighting the network’s role as the primary infrastructure for the fast-growing stablecoin.
BNB Chain Becomes the Home of USD1
The surge in adoption comes shortly after USD1 was added to BNB Chain’s zero-gas-fee stablecoin initiative, allowing users to transact with USD1 without incurring gas fees. This cost-saving measure has significantly enhanced the stablecoin’s attractiveness for everyday users and DeFi protocols alike.
BNB Chain’s low transaction fees, high-speed finality, and vast decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystem have made it an ideal launchpad for USD1, especially compared to high-fee alternatives like Ethereum.
“BNB Chain’s dominance in stablecoin infrastructure makes it the natural choice for scalable and efficient USD1 adoption,” one ecosystem developer noted.
Strategic Ecosystem: WLFI and the Role of USD1
USD1 plays a central role in the World Liberty Finance (WLFI) ecosystem, a DeFi protocol focused on on-chain payments, remittances, and commerce with a pro-American policy lens. Backed 1:1 and fully redeemable, USD1 is emerging as both a practical digital dollar and a tool of political branding and financial inclusion.
Recent reports suggest WLFI has ties to the Trump family, further fueling speculation that USD1 may serve as a flagship asset in the evolving “crypto-conservative” movement.
Institutional Backing: DWF Labs Invests $25M in WLFI
Institutional support for WLFI and USD1 is growing. DWF Labs recently announced a $25 million investment in WLFI tokens and is expanding its U.S. footprint with a new office in New York City.
