Trump-Backed World Liberty Financial to Launch Asset Products in January 2026
According to an official announcement, the Trump-backed firm will debut blockchain-based real-world asset products in January 2026, aiming to merge decentralized finance with traditional markets.
World Liberty Financial, backed by the Trump family, officially confirmed plans to launch blockchain-integrated real-world asset products in January 2026. The move is intended to strengthen links between decentralized finance and traditional financial markets. This timeline represents a delay from the initially announced January 2025 rollout by co-founder Zach Witkoff. The company’s USD1 stablecoin had previously been utilized by Abu Dhabi-backed MGX to facilitate a Binance investment payment, demonstrating WLF’s capability in executing high-value blockchain transactions.
