Binance, the world’s largest crypto exchange, has broadened support for USD1, the stablecoin tied to World Liberty Financial and US President Donald Trump’s crypto ventures, reports disclosed. The exchange added new spot pairs including ETH/USD1, SOL/USD1 and BNB/USD1, and enabled fee-free swaps between USD1 and other major stablecoins. Related Reading: Is Dogecoin Waking Up? Critical On-Chain Metric Explodes Higher Binance Will Shift Collateral Into USD1 The exchange will convert all collateral backing its Binance-Peg BUSD (B-Token) into USD1 at a 1:1 ratio, a process the company said should be completed within one week. This change means USD1 is being folded into its internal collateral and liquidity systems rather than remaining only a tradable token. Market Reaction And Liquidity Effects Traders reacted quickly. Price moves in BNB and other tokens showed more buying interest after the announcement. Market data snapshots suggested a short-term uptick in BNB as liquidity and trading routes were expanded by the new USD1 pairs. Reports put the token’s wider market use and the platform’s zero-fee swaps as the likely drivers. Binance to Add BNB/USD1, ETH/USD1 Trading Pairs; B-Token Collateral to Be Converted to USD1 According to an official announcement, @binance will list new spot trading pairs BNB/USD1, ETH/USD1, and SOL/USD1 at 16:00 (UTC+8) on December 11, 2025. At the same time, Binance will… pic.twitter.com/mIPrkiR3Lj — ME (@MetaEraHK) December 10, 2025 Backing, Size, And Recent Deals According to public filings and market trackers, USD1 is backed by US Treasury bills, cash and equivalents and is redeemable at a one-for-one rate with the dollar. The stablecoin has grown quickly and is now listed among the larger stablecoins by market cap, with figures around $2.7 billion cited in recent summaries. Reports have also linked USD1 to a major Abu Dhabi investment that used the token for a $2 billion deal. Political Context And Scrutiny These commercial moves come after a politically charged episode: Trump granted a pardon earlier this year to Binance’s former CEO, an action that critics say raises questions about ties between Binance and the Trump family’s crypto interests. That sequence of events has drawn scrutiny from lawmakers and commentators, who are asking for more transparency around the deals and any possible conflicts of interest.

According to remarks made at Yahoo Finance’s Invest event, Eric Trump told attendees he expects a major shift in how money flows between traditional stores of value and newer digital assets. Related Reading: Kiyosaki Stands His Ground—No Selling, More Bitcoin Buys Ahead He said Bitcoin’s fixed supply of 21 million coins and growing institutional buying are key drivers. In a separate interview with Fox Business in late September, he forecasted a long-term price target of $1 million per Bitcoin, a prediction that underscores how bullish his view is. Bitcoin Seen As A Faster Mover Of Value Eric argued that Bitcoin – which he called the “greatest asset” ever – moves value faster and cheaper across borders than metal that must be hauled and locked away. He called Bitcoin “digital gold,” and pushed the idea that its code-based supply gives it an advantage over physical bullion. Based on reports, he also framed crypto as a hedge against inflation, corruption, and weak monetary policy — reasons he said explain rising adoption around the globe. JUST IN: ???????? Eric Trump says a gold-to-Bitcoin rotation is imminent “The ratio will disproportionately shift to Bitcoin.” “It’s been the single greatest asset we’ve ever seen.” pic.twitter.com/4TYY1qALlm — Bitcoin Archive (@BitcoinArchive) November 14, 2025 American Bitcoin’s Rapid Rise Eric and his brother Donald Trump Jr. co-founded American Bitcoin (ABTC), which went public in September and now carries a market valuation approaching $4 billion. The firm has expanded quickly after merging with Gryphon Digital Mining. According to Bitcoin Treasuries, ABTC is the 25th-largest public company holder of Bitcoin in the US. Company officials say their West Texas mines benefit from low energy costs, allowing them to produce Bitcoin at roughly half of the current spot price. Source: Bitcoin Treasuries Company Growth And Risks Growth has been fast, but analysts and critics warn of clear risks. Mining firms gain when prices rise, and they can suffer when prices fall. Some worry that a combined ABTC-Gryphon business faces larger swings in earnings and asset values because crypto markets remain volatile. There are also concerns about mixing political ties with finance; World Liberty Financial, a Trump family-affiliated project, manages a WLFI governance token and a USD1 stablecoin, and some observers have flagged transparency questions. A Long Record Versus A Young Network Gold has centuries of use as a store of value and broad global acceptance. Bitcoin has existed since 2009 and shows rapid price moves that can create big winners and big losers. Historical data points to sharp shifts: during the 2017 rally, the Bitcoin-to-gold ratio hit record highs before it fell back when prices corrected. That history is often used to remind investors that gains can be followed by steep pullbacks. The correlation between the two has shifted over time, with each asset responding to different market pressures. Bitcoin and gold correlation. Source: Newhedge. What Analysts And Critics Warn Conflict of interest is one common critique: executives who publicly praise Bitcoin can also benefit directly when their companies hold or mine more coins. Forecasts that put a single Bitcoin at $1 million are seen by many as speculative rather than certain. Regulatory changes, tax rules, and policy moves in the US or abroad could change market conditions quickly, and those possibilities are stressed by cautious commentators.

Eric Trump has stepped down from the board of ALT5 Sigma, a newly established World Liberty Financial Treasury company. As reported by Forbes on Tuesday, the decision has led to a 7% decline in the WLFI price, causing it to fall below the crucial $0.20 threshold. Confusion Surrounds Eric Trump’s Exit From ALT5 Sigma The announcement of Trump’s departure was made through a Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filing, which revealed that the change came just weeks after ALT5 Sigma had initially appointed him as a director.  Related Reading: This Week In Crypto: What Investors Need To Know And Why It Matters According to the report, the decision to remove Trump was made in consultation with The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC to ensure compliance with its listing rules. However, the specific regulations that prompted this action were not disclosed in the filing. Interestingly, three securities law professors consulted by Forbes were unable to identify a clear reason why Nasdaq would accept one appointee from the company while rejecting another.  Nasdaq requires that a majority of board members at listed companies be independent, and if Eric Trump did not meet these criteria, it raises further questions about why Zachary Folkman, his replacement, would qualify. WLFI Price Sinks To $0.19 Just weeks prior, Eric Trump, alongside his brother Donald Trump Jr. and executives from World Liberty Financial, participated in a ceremonial ringing of the Nasdaq opening bell.  This event coincided with ALT5 Sigma’s announcement of a significant fundraising effort, aiming to raise $1.5 billion through private share sales to acquire WLFI tokens, the native cryptocurrency issued by World Liberty Financial. Despite the formal announcement made to the SEC, it is noteworthy that ALT5 Sigma’s website still lists Eric Trump as a board director on its leadership and investor relations pages. Related Reading: Solana Power Play: Galaxy, Jump Crypto, Multicoin Behind New $1.6 Billion Treasury Strategy Following the filing, the WLFI price dropped to $0.1961, further exacerbating its negative performance over the last 24 hours and seven days, with a 14% decline over the latter period.  According to CoinGecko data, the WLFI price is currently trading 39% below its all-time high (ATH) of $0.33, which was reached on September 1st—the day the token debuted on major exchanges after months of anticipation.  Featured image from Politico, chart from TradingView.com

Onchain data shows WLFI’s sharp drop was driven by shorting and dumping across exchanges – not Justin Sun's token movements – while the project says wallet freezes targeted phishing-related compromises, not market participants.

The launch of the World Liberty Financial platform’s native token, WLFI, was anticipated as a significant event in the cryptocurrency market, especially with backing from the Trump family.  However, just a day after its debut, the token’s price plummeted, sparking intense speculation regarding its major investors, particularly Justin Sun, the founder of the Tron blockchain. Alleged Manipulation By Justin Sun Market expert Quinten Francois provided insights into the WLFI launch, which initially priced at $0.20, reaching a market capitalization of $1 billion. Despite the excitement surrounding the launch, which generated billions in trading volume, the token’s value continued to decline.  Interestingly, this downturn occurred even as the community seemed to hold onto their tokens rather than sell them. Francois speculated that exchanges might have offloaded part of their holdings, estimated at 2.8%. Related Reading: Analyst Predicts The XRP Price If 10% Of Global Assets Are Tokenized Allegations have surfaced that Justin Sun engaged in dubious tactics by channeling WLFI through his exchange, HTX. He reportedly offered users a 20% annual percentage yield (APY) for depositing WLFI, allowing him to offload a significant portion of his own holdings under the guise of user staking.  Allegations suggest that this maneuver not only enabled him to profit from the situation but also that he intended to cover any withdrawals or sell-offs with his own tokens, further complicating retail investors’ returns. As Bitcoinist reported on Thursday, Sun’s alleged manipulation led to the freezing of his wallet address. As a result, there is growing concern among experts that WLFI could ultimately face a trajectory toward zero. Could The WLFI Price Plummet To Zero? In a recent social media post, user OxPunisher outlined the patterns of manipulation associated with Sun, referencing his history of questionable trades between 2018 and 2020, which reportedly resulted in $31 million in illicit profits.  This ongoing saga continued into 2024, when Sun withdrew $732 million worth of Bitcoin from USDD collateral, and in late 2024, he invested $30 million into WLFI just as the SEC paused his case, further raising alarms among investors. Related Reading: First US Dogecoin ETF Could Debut Next Week—How Will It Impact Price? The narrative surrounding WLFI appears precarious at best. The expert asserts that without Justin Sun’s liquidity strategies the token’s value could collapse.  Moreover, without the backing of high-profile figures like President Donald Trump, the narrative that initially attracted investors may lose its momentum entirely.  This situation has led OxPunisher to believe that this situation can result in panic selling and a shift toward safer investment options by the platform’s investors, which could further increase the WLFI’s sell-off and downtrend seen in the past few days.

American Bitcoin, a mining company tied to US President Donald Trump’s sons Eric and Donald Trump Jr., wrapped up its first day of trading on the Nasdaq with sharp swings but still managed to finish 16.75% higher at just over $8. After-hours trading pushed the stock up another 6% to $8.50, reports confirmed. Related Reading: XRP Poised For Amazon-Like Boom? Analyst Predicts $200 Rally Wild Price Swings On First Day Trading opened with a rush. The newly rebranded company, formed through a merger with Gryphon Digital Mining (GRYP), jumped as high as $13.21 from Gryphon’s previous close of $6.90, a 90% surge. That early momentum collapsed quickly, sending the stock down to $6.70 in the afternoon before it recovered part of the loss. Nasdaq halted trading five times due to extreme volatility. Despite the erratic moves, Bloomberg estimated Eric Trump’s 7.5% stake at roughly $548 million by the end of the session. His fortune is now tied directly to how American Bitcoin performs in the market. Dual Strategy Of Mining And Buying According to Eric Trump, the company will not only mine Bitcoin but also buy it when conditions make more sense. He described the approach as switching “to whichever is better at the time.” The company’s existing treasury already holds 2,443 BTC, making it the 25th-largest stash among public companies. With Bitcoin trading above $112,000, that holding is worth about $275 million. Eric Trump emphasized that the business will aim to maximize shareholder value by balancing mining output and market purchases: “We’re going to harness daily mining to the fullest, but we can also go out and purchase Bitcoin to support the treasury,” the presidential son said. Political Undertones And A Second Venture The launch has stirred questions about whether American Bitcoin benefits from President Trump’s crypto-friendly stance. Eric Trump dismissed criticism that his family is profiting directly from political ties, saying his father has “nothing to do with this business.” Related Reading: Dogecoin Gets Its 1st Foundation-Backed Treasury Worth $175 Million The American Bitcoin debut came just days after another Trump-linked venture. Tokens for World Liberty Financial (WLFI), a separate crypto project involving President Trump and his sons, were listed on exchanges earlier in the week. WLFI’s performance has so far been weak, dropping 30% from its debut price and losing another 7% in the last 24 hours to about 21 cents, based on CoinMarketCap data. A company tied to the Trumps owns nearly a quarter of all WLFI tokens, estimated at $4.6 billion in value. While WLFI struggles to gain traction, American Bitcoin’s opening has given the Trump family another high-profile position in the crypto sector. Whether the stock can maintain its momentum after a chaotic debut remains uncertain, but Eric Trump called the launch “an unbelievable day” and insisted “the floodgates are just starting to open.” Featured image from Meta, chart from TradingView

Trump-backed DeFi project World Liberty Financial has blacklisted an address linked to Justin Sun after it reportedly transferred some of its WLFI tokens, sparking allegations of market manipulation. Related Reading: Cardano (ADA) Redemption Controversy Over? Hoskinson Shares IOG Audit Results World Liberty Financial Blacklists Justin Sun On Thursday, World Liberty Financial reportedly blacklisted the Tron founder’s address following his recent movements of his WLFI holdings and multiple online accusations that he was selling. According to Arkham data, Sun claimed 600 million WLFI tokens at the Token Generation Event (TGE), valued at $200 million at the time, as 20% of the 100 billion tokens were unlocked. The Tron founder was one of the earliest investors in World Liberty Financial in 2024 and was recognized as the top holder of US President Donald Trump’s official memecoin, TRUMP, earlier this year. On September 1, he shared his conviction on the token, affirming that WLFI “will be one of the biggest and most important projects in crypto.” He also stated that he had “no plans to sell our unlocked tokens anytime soon. The long-term vision here is too powerful, and I’m fully aligned with the mission.” Nonetheless, multiple on-chain analysis platforms revealed that Sun had started to move his unlocked tokens, sparking rumors that he was selling. On-chain data showed that he had sent 4.9 million WLFI to crypto exchange HTX, owned by the Tron Founder, over the past two days. Sun reportedly transferred 50 million tokens, worth $9.12 million, to a new wallet on Thursday morning, “likely to be deposited into HTX.” Meanwhile, Wu Blockchain noted that over the past 32 hours, HTX address “HTX 48” transferred approximately 60,000,000 WLFI tokens to Binance deposit address 0xf387D7…29FcB5. Sun Denies WLFI Selling Accusations Following the $9 million move, “World Liberty Financial’s controlling address 0x407F…5178 called the guardianSetBlacklistStatus function on the WLFI Token contract, blacklisting the address 0x5AB2…DA74, which is associated with Justin Sun,” Wu Blockchain explained. The action froze Sun’s unlocked and 2.4 billion locked WLFI tokens. Tron’s founder responded to the accusations on X, stating that his address just conducted “a few test deposits on exchanges with very low amounts, followed by an address distribution.” He added that these tests “did not involve any trading activities and could not have impacted the market in any way,” but did not comment on the blacklist. At the time of writing, World Liberty Financial has not addressed the situation. WLFI’s Price Hits New Low The news comes as WLFI’s price struggles just three days after launching. Earlier today, the token hit an all-time low (ATL) of $0.16 before bouncing to the $0.18 mark. This performance represents a 20% decline over the past 24 hours and a nearly 45% drop from its all-time high (ATH) of $0.33. Market watcher Daan Crypto Trades noted that the cryptocurrency has broken down from a triangle formation, where the price was compressing for the past two days. According to the trader, WLFI saw a “quick acceleration as expected” and “even gave a nice retest before the continuation down.” Related Reading: Bitcoin Attempts $111,000 Reclaim, But Last Leg Up Could Be Weeks Away – Analyst Meanwhile, analyst Ali Martinez suggested that te bottom might not be in, highlighting that the token now risks a 25%-50% drop after losing the $0.20 area as support.

American Bitcoin, a new cryptocurrency mining venture supported by Eric and Donald Trump Jr., made its debut on Nasdaq on Wednesday under the ticker symbol “ABTC.”  This launch marks the Trump family’s second digital asset debut in less than a week, following World Liberty Financial’s WLFI token launch on crypto exchanges on Monday.  American Bitcoin Shares Jump 90% In a press release, Eric Trump, co-founder and chief strategy officer of American Bitcoin, described the listing as a “historic milestone,” emphasizing the company’s mission to integrate Bitcoin into the core of US capital markets.  In line with President Donald Trump’s pro-crypto agenda, which has created a more accommodating environment for the growth of digital assets in the country, Eric expressed ambition for the US to lead the global Bitcoin economy.  Related Reading: One Major Reason Bitcoin Hasn’t Reached $150,000, According To Trump’s Crypto Advisor Initially launched as a subsidiary of Hut 8, a publicly traded Bitcoin mining firm, American Bitcoin began trading at $6.90 per share following an all-stock merger with Gryphon Digital Mining.  The ABTC stock experienced a remarkable surge, rising as much as 90% toward its current record of $14.52 in its first hour of trading, although it later settled to over a 40% increase, trading at $9.21 per share.  Asher Genoot, executive chair of American Bitcoin and CEO of Hut 8, stated that the company aims to foster rapid growth in Bitcoin shares by leveraging its mining capabilities and Hut 8’s robust energy and digital infrastructure. Trump Family Expands Crypto Portfolio The listing of American Bitcoin is one of several similar moves by the Trump family in the digital asset space, following the approval of trading WLFI in August and its subsequent debut on exchanges such as Binance.  The WLFI token experienced typical market reactions, spiking initially toward a new record of $0.47 before stabilizing close to its listing price between $0.20 and $0.22 for the last few days.  According to CoinGecko data, World Liberty Financial has quickly climbed to become the 35th largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, reaching a valuation of nearly $6 billion in record time.  Related Reading: WLFI: The Next Cult Coin? Analyst Outlines Potential For Explosive Growth Current valuations suggest that their holdings in World Liberty Financial tokens could be worth around $5 billion, positioning them as one of the family’s most valuable assets. The Trump family’s financial interests in the cryptocurrency realm have garnered considerable attention, encompassing a range of projects from World Liberty tokens to a memecoin associated with President Trump himself launched in January.  Eric Trump recently remarked that crypto has been “probably the most rewarding venture of my entire life,” reflecting his enthusiasm for the digital currency landscape. At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading at $112,159, marking a modest 1% increase within the last 24 hours. Compared to the cryptocurrency’s record price of $124,100, the current price is 9% lower.  Featured image from DALL-E, chart from TradingView.com

The recent debut of the World Liberty Financial token (WLFI) in the cryptocurrency market has generated considerable buzz, despite facing notable price retracements within just 24 hours of trading.  Despite WLFI’s 25% price retrace in the 24-hour time frame, one market analyst believes that the cryptocurrency has the potential to emerge as this year’s “cult coin,” with significant price potential for the remainder of the bull cycle.  Could WLFI Soar 330% In 2025? In a detailed post on X (formerly Twitter), analyst Virtual Bacon drew comparisons to previously called cult coins, such as XRP in 2017 and Dogecoin (DOGE) in 2021, suggesting that WLFI could follow a similar price trajectory in 2025.  Related Reading: Dogecoin Bull Run Could Start On September 13, Analyst Predicts The circulating supply of WLFI currently stands at 24.6 billion tokens, with approximately 6.9% actively tradable. A key point raised by Bacon is the transparent unlock schedule for various stakeholder tokens.  While 20% of the supply is designated for public sale investors and 2.8% is allocated for liquidity and exchanges, the team and investor tokens remain locked. This contrasts with the circumstances surrounding other tokens which experienced a dramatic crash due to a high fully diluted valuation (FDV) and a limited float. Bacon argues that WLFI’s model is healthier, featuring a fair distribution of liquidity across exchanges and gradual unlocks that mitigate the risks associated with sudden price drops.  Notably, the analyst’s price target for WLFI is set at $1, which he believes would bring the token’s fully diluted valuation to $100 billion and its market cap to $24.6 billion.  As of this writing, the cryptocurrency is trading at $0.23. That potential scenario could mean a 330% price increase. That could also propel the token toward 11th place among the top cryptocurrencies, positioning it alongside Chainlink (LINK) and Cardano (ADA). Catalysts That Could Drive Token Growth And Market Surge Virtual Bacon also addressed comparisons to the TRUMP memecoin launched earlier this year, acknowledging that while WLFI may eventually face an 80% drop like many altcoins, it is fundamentally different.  Unlike TRUMP, which experienced a rapid ascent beyond $70 before entering a major downtrend, the analyst notes that WLFI boasts “real integrations,” ties to US Treasuries, and institutional backing. Related Reading: Bitcoin Mirrors Historical Pullback Ranges – Healthy Correction Or Trouble Ahead? Virtual Bacon identified key catalysts that could drive WLFI’s growth. These include the development of a retail app for and payment solutions, a lending and borrowing platform, and the anticipation of a social media post from President Donald Trump regarding WLFI, which could significantly boost its visibility and market activity. The analyst also mentioned that interest in the recently launched cryptocurrency has outperformed that of major altcoins, such as Ethereum (ETH) and Solana (SOL), which he believes indicates a potential cult following that could drive liquidity. Ultimately, Virtual Bacon argues that WLFI’s fair tokenomics, transparent supply structure, strong institutional support, and growing retail momentum position it favorably for the future and strong performance in the upcoming months.  Featured image from DALL-E, chart from TradingView.com
