World Liberty Financial is set to launch its USD1 token on the Aptos blockchain network. The launch is scheduled for October 6, 2025, and will feature broad ecosystem support from leading Aptos DeFi protocols, wallets, and exchanges.
USD1, introduced by World Liberty Financial (WLFI) and co-founded by Donald Trump Jr. and Zach Witkoff, has rapidly achieved a prominent market capitalization, estimated at around $2.7 billion since its first deployment on BNB Chain in March 2025. Its arrival on Aptos positions USD1 as the first major dollar-pegged asset leveraging Move technology, inheriting the network’s renowned efficiency, scalability, and security features.
Aptos offers average transaction costs of less than $0.01 and settlement speeds under half a second, factors cited by WLFI as core reasons for selecting Aptos for the stablecoin’s cross-chain expansion.
WLFI and Aptos leadership have emphasized the strategic alignment: Aptos’ low costs and rapid confirmation enable seamless retail and institutional adoption, serving as a springboard for future WLFI financial products targeting global users.
World Liberty Financial Ecosystem Integration
USD1’s launch goes beyond a single platform. There is support for top Aptos DeFi protocols, including Echelon Market, Hyperion, Thala Labs, Panora Exchange, and Tapp Exchange. Multiple wallet providers, Petra Wallet, Backpack, OneKey, Nightly, Bitget Wallet, and exchanges such as OKX and Gate will recognize USD1 from day one, ensuring widespread accessibility.
Liquidity pools and on-chain incentives will become available concurrently with the launch, designed to accelerate adoption and simplify trading, staking, and transfer operations within the Aptos ecosystem. The detailed integration plan reveals that WLFI aims to quickly make USD1 useful, focusing on real-world applications in DeFi and payments, rather than just promoting the brand.
The arrival of USD1 on Aptos strengthens both partners’ competitive posture. For WLFI, deploying on Aptos adds technical credibility and access to a fast-growing developer community. Aptos, in turn, enhances its stablecoin offerings and establishes itself as a hub for tokenized assets and cross-border financial services.
