According to the latest reports, World Liberty Financial (WLFI), a crypto venture backed by the Trump family, will launch its USD1 stablecoin on the Aptos blockchain on October 6, 2025. Reports say a crypto-linked debit card will allow daily spending of USD1. Aptos was chosen for speed and low transaction cost and has deep ecosystem support across wallets, exchanges and DeFi protocols.
Why Aptos?
WLFI chose Aptos for deploying USD1 for good reasons. According to Aptos CEO Avery Ching, transactions cost “less than a hundredth of a cent” and finalize in under half a second. These are essential characteristics for stablecoin usability.
Aptos already has over $1 billion in existing stablecoin liquidity and more than $720 million in tokenized assets. The network can support Move-based smart contract logic making it a platform for real-world asset (RWA) integration and streamlined finance applications.
By deploying USD1 on Aptos, WLFI is going to challenge existing stablecoin dominance on Ethereum and Tron. With USDT already having over $1.3 billion on Aptos, WLFI sees room for USD1 to take market share.
WLFI and Aptos have been discussing this partnership for months and Ching said WLFI views Aptos as “one of the best tech partners.”

Ecosystem Support and Integration at Launch
USD1’s launch will have broad support across the Aptos ecosystem and major wallet/exchange partners. DeFi protocols on Aptos including Echelon Market, Hyperion, Thala, Tapp will offer liquidity pools, trading and incentives from day one.
Wallets and exchanges such as Petra Wallet, Backpack, OKX, Bitget Wallet, Gate, OneKey have committed to integrate USD1.
The wide integration is to ensure adoption by both retail users and institutional participants. WLFI also announced a crypto debit card to tie stablecoin balances to real-world spending.
Beyond USD1, WLFI hinted at more ambitious use cases, planning to tokenize assets such as real estate, oil and gas using USD1 as a settlement base.
USD1’s Structural and Reserve Design
Earlier WLFI statements in March mentioned that USD1 would be backed by U.S. Treasuries, dollar deposits and other cash equivalents, audited by third parties.
As of now, USD1’s market capitalization is approximately $2.68 billion, with most of it issued on BNB Chain (about 79%) and the rest on Ethereum, Solana and Tron. The Aptos launch will make USD1 a multi-chain stablecoin.
The reserve model is supposed to provide transparency and stability; but details of auditing, reserve composition and collateral rules are yet to be disclosed.
Importantly, WLFI plans to have yield from USD1 flow back to users.
