At the Token2049 event in Singapore, World Liberty Fi CEO Zak Whitcoff said that the company is exploring various ways to implement tokenized real assets and plans to tie them to its stablecoin USD1.
According to Whitcoff, WLFi is actively working in this direction:
‘We are very interested in commodity markets — oil, gas, cotton, timber. All these things, frankly, should have been moved on-chain long ago,’ he noted.
The company is already working on tokenizing such assets and tying them to USD1. Real assets require a reliable and transparent stablecoin — without this, there will be no trust.
‘We are not just thinking about it — we are already working on implementation,’ Whitcoff added.
Trump Jr. believes stablecoins maintain the dollar’s position
According to Donald Trump Jr., it is crypto that can keep the dollar as the world’s reserve currency. He noted that demand for dollar-pegged tokens continues to grow. And this is happening as countries like China and Japan reduce their investments in US bonds.
‘It is crypto that will help preserve the global dominance of the dollar,’ he said at a meeting in Singapore.
The situation changed after the adoption of the GENIUS law in July — it gave confidence to both stablecoin issuers and investors. The market for these tokens recently set a record and approached $300 billion. Almost the entire volume is in digital assets pegged to the dollar — primarily USDT from Tether and USDC from Circle.

According to Trump Jr., this confirms the obvious: users around the world continue to vote for the dollar, even if in a new digital format.
USD1 entered the top 6 stablecoins
According to CoinGecko, the stablecoin USD1 already ranks sixth by capitalization, which has reached $2.68 billion. The token is available on several networks: Binance Smart Chain, Ethereum, Solana, and Tron. The main part of the supply circulates on the BSC network.
Besides USD1, the World Liberty Financial ecosystem includes the WLFI token, which is used for project governance. These two assets form the foundation of the entire platform. The team’s plans include launching new products. A debit card may appear at the end of 2025 or early 2026. A mobile app and crypto wallet are also in development.
