Preço de World Liberty Financial USDUSD1

COINOTAG News reported on December 26 that Solv Protocol‘s Business Development Lead Catherine disclosed a collaboration between Binance and USD1 to roll out a 20% fixed annualized deposit promotion. The promo spurred a wave of USDT-to-USD1 swaps, with USD1 briefly trading at a premium of about 0.39%. In this setup, some funds were lent via the Lista DAO lending market, using SolvBTC or SolvBTC-BTCB as collateral to borrow USD1 and gradually liquidate into the spot market to meet demand. A portion of the activity involved traders placing market orders to sell BTC against USD1, aided by the product’s thin liquidity. However, the depth on the new pair was limited, and a sizable market order briefly drained the buy side, temporarily depressing BTC prices before arbitrage bots restored balance. CZ clarified that the exchange did not participate in these trades; with no index inclusion, the episode did not trigger liquidations.

In brief The stablecoin supply jumped $100 billion to a total of $314 billion in 2025. Tether leads in transaction activity, followed by Ripple's RLUSD and Circle's USDC. The Trump-backed USD1 reached the top 5 just months after April launch. Decrypt’s Art, Fashion, and Entertainment Hub. Discover SCENE This was a defining year for stablecoins, with the signing of the GENIUS Act, a high-flying IPO for Circle, and a handful of tokens outpacing the rest. Since the start of January, the overall U.S. dollar-denominated stablecoin supply has increased by more than $100 billion, to $314 billion total. But that doesn’t mean all boats have risen at the same rate. To measure stablecoin performance, Decrypt calculated velocity using historical data from crypto price aggregator CoinGecko from January through December 15. Velocity divides total volume by average supply, resulting in a calculation of how many times each coin has, on average, changed hands. amp;amp;lt;span data-mce-type="bookmark" style="width:0px;overflow:hidden;line-height:0" class="mce_SELRES_start"amp;amp;gt;amp;amp;lt;/spanamp;amp;gt; As former Commodities and Futures Trading Commission Chairman Timothy Massad explained to Decrypt, measuring velocity beats rankings that rely only on total supply. “Stablecoins can be very useful without there being a large market cap,” he said. “In other words, it's really the velocity, the transaction use, and they can circulate very quickly even if the amount outstanding is not that great.” Tether (USDT) Tether tops the list with a velocity of 166 because it’s long been a workhorse for global crypto trading. It can’t claim the crown as the first-ever stablecoin—that belongs to BitUSD. But it launched the same year, in 2014, and became the first widely used one. Tether boasts a market capitalization of $186 billion after increasing 35% since the start of the year, according to CoinGecko data. The bulk of Tether tokens get traded on Ethereum (46.3%) and Tron (41.4%), according to DeFi Llama data. Tether began the year by relocating to Bitcoin-friendly El Salvador, where President Nayib Bukele declared BTC legal tender in 2021. There have been a few bumps, though. In March, Binance said it would delist USDT for European Union users to stay compliant with MiCA regulations, which require stablecoin issuers to be licensed. But that’s not stopped the company from turning a hefty profit. So far in 2025, Tether has seen $10 billion in profit in the first three quarters of the year, the company said in October. Ripple USD (RLUSD) Ripple Labs’ stablecoin, RLUSD, swiped the second spot with a velocity of 71. That means, on average, every RLUSD token has changed hands 71 times since the start of the year. In most stablecoin lineups, Circle’s USDC would hold this spot because its $78 billion market capitalization trumps that of RLUSD’s $1.3 billion. But as Massad pointed out, stablecoin performance has more to do with being able to move money efficiently than its total supply. Ripple was provisionally approved for a national banking charter by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, or OCC, in December. “This is a massive step forward—first for RLUSD— setting the highest standard for stablecoin compliance with both federal (OCC) state (NYDFS) oversight,” Ripple Labs CEO Brad Garlinghouse wrote on X. HUGE news! @Ripple just received conditional approval from the @USOCC to charter Ripple National Trust Bank. This is a massive step forward - first for $RLUSD, setting the highest standard for stablecoin compliance with both federal (OCC) state (NYDFS) oversight. To the… — Brad Garlinghouse (@bgarlinghouse) December 12, 2025 Ripple Senior Vice President of Stablecoins Jack McDonald has often pointed out that RLUSD was specifically designed for institutional use. At the start of December, Ripple got the green light from the Singapore Monetary Authority, or MAS, to expand XRP and RLUSD payments in Singapore. And earlier this year, RLUSD was integrated into Securitize's tokenization platform. That means it’s one of the assets investors can swap for tokenized money market funds. Circle (USDC) USDC saw its velocity reach 56 in 2025, while its market capitalization climbed 78% to $78.4 billion by December 15. Perhaps more than any of its competitors, Circle benefitted massively from the passage of the GENIUS Act. Its operating model already resembled the federally regulated framework that’s now become U.S. law. That’s given Circle a head start on compliance and investor confidence—and investors took note. CRCL was so popular with investors on its debut that the NYSE halted trading three times. Since then, Circle has reported $740 million in Q3 revenue, marking a 66% year-over-year increase. Circle has also rolled out the testnet for Arc, its layer-1 blockchain, which counts BlackRock, Visa, and Amazon Web Services as early participants. Circle was also one of several stablecoin issuers—including Ripple, Paxos and BitGo—which got a provisional approval for its national banking charter and will be looking to expand into broader financial services. USD1 (USD1) USD1 is an outlier because it launched in April, and therefore doesn’t have nearly a full year’s worth of data. But that didn’t stop it from landing right next to the podium with a velocity of 39. Issued by World Liberty Financial—the crypto-focused firm co-founded by Donald Trump Jr. and partners—USD1 was designed from the outset to be a highly liquid transactional stablecoin. The token reached a $1 billion market cap in April, less than a month after its launch, according to data from CoinGecko. There have been some very bullish predictions about its growth. Blockstreet’s Kyle Klemmer told Decrypt he believes USD1 will be the world’s dominant stablecoin, beating USDT and USDC, before President Donald Trump’s second term ends in 2029. The project has leaned heavily on retail distribution and promotional partnerships, including integrations with several U.S.-based crypto exchanges, like Coinbase and FalconX, and it’s making a bid to become “Solana’s go-to stablecoin” by teaming up with meme coin platform Bonk and decentralized exchange Raydium. PayPal USD (PYUSD) PayPal USD’s velocity of 18 lands it in fifth place on this list. Its 2023 debut made big waves because it was the first time an established payments platform made a bid at issuing a stablecoin—years before there was a regulatory framework in the U.S.. For most of this year, growth for PYUSD moved at a modest pace. Its market capitalization peaked above $1 billion in June and then established a foothold in September. Since then, it’s nearly tripled to $3.8 billion as of December 15. PayPal has teamed with LayerZero to expand the token’s presence to nine new blockchains, including Tron, Abstract, Aptos, and Avalanche. But there’s also been some controversy. In October, observers noted that PYUSD issuer Paxos minted and then immediately burned $300 trillion worth of tokens. It’s an impossibly large number of tokens, given it represents more than twice the world’s GDP. At 3:12 PM EST, Paxos mistakenly minted excess PYUSD as part of an internal transfer. Paxos immediately identified the error and burned the excess PYUSD. This was an internal technical error. There is no security breach. Customer funds are safe. We have addressed the root… — Paxos (@Paxos) October 15, 2025 "This was an internal technical error. There is no security breach,” the firm wrote on X. “Customer funds are safe. We have addressed the root cause." USDe (USDe) Ethena Labs’ USDe demonstrated a velocity of 11 in 2025, with its market capitalization showing a modest gain of 11% from $5.8 billion in January to $6.5 billion by December 15. But that trajectory leaves out the fact that its market cap soared to nearly $15 billion before the early October flash crash. USDe is the only stablecoin on this list that isn’t backed by fiat currency: It’s backed by a delta-neutral strategy involving staked Ethereum and perpetual futures hedges. But its reliance on derivatives means that times of high volatility and shifts in sentiment can cause big swings in market capitalization. Even with a less straightforward structure, the token’s advocates include billionaire Arthur Hayes. But not all regulators are convinced. Ethena Labs pulled out of the German market in April over growing scrutiny over its “serious deficiencies” in compliance. USDS (USDS) Sky’s USDS showed extremely low velocity of 1 in 2025—and that’s by design. To avoid confusion: Sky is a rebrand of DeFi OG MakerDAO and USDS is a rebrand of its DAI stablecoin. Unlike USDT or USDC, which function as transactional stablecoins, most USDS tokens sit locked in Maker vaults or savings contracts as collateral for DeFi loans rather than circulating. Its role in DeFi is closer to a yield-bearing savings instrument than digital cash, so it naturally turns over far less often. For example, the Sky Protocol currently offers a 4% rewards rate (paid in SKY tokens) to users who hold USDS. As of 2025, USDS has seen its market capitalization grow from $5.2 billion at the start of the year to $9.8 billion, marking an 85% increase in just under 12 months.

Changpeng Zhao lays out his 2025 focus on BNB Chain, stablecoin 2.0, prediction markets and AI agents in a post‑pardon, builder‑first reset. Summary Changpeng Zhao shifts from exchange operator to mentor‑investor, focusing on Giggle Academy, YZi Labs and BNB Chain builders.​ He pushes a “stablecoin 2.0” thesis: native, high‑liquidity, yield‑bearing assets on chains like BNB, beyond USDT’s 1.0 model.​ YZi Labs backs multiple prediction markets and RWA plays as BNB Chain scales throughput, users and native liquidity. Changpeng Zhao’s 2025 could have been a quiet fade‑out. Instead, the pardoned Binance founder is spending his time scaling an education app, seeding early-stage projects through YZi Labs, and quietly lobbying governments from Dubai coffee shops. “Whether you call it freedom, closure, or finally ‘turning the page,’ at its core it’s the feeling of being able to move forward unburdened again,” he said, stressing that his day‑to‑day routine remains anchored at home—and in the gym—rather than on trading floors. Changpeng Zhao doubles down on Binance The four pillars of that new routine are now clear: Giggle Academy, YZi Labs, the BNB Chain ecosystem, and direct advisory work with policymakers from Pakistan to the UAE. Giggle Academy, a free education platform with “more than 90,000 kids already using it,” has grown into what Zhao calls a long‑term commitment, backed by a roughly 60‑person team iterating the product in weekly cycles.​ YZi Labs, meanwhile, functions as his main investing and mentoring vehicle. “I’m more of a mentor and coach—working with founders and developers, helping them grow,” Zhao said, noting that the firm evaluated over 1,000 projects in 2025 and completed close to 70 investments, many of them building directly on BNB Chain and feeding into its EASY Residency program. That builder‑first approach now includes a dedicated $1 billion Builder Fund targeted at DeFi, AI, real‑world assets, and biotech on BNB Chain—a pool that arrives just as the network pushes toward “CEX‑like” confirmation times and record user numbers.​ On‑chain, BNB (BNB) Chain has quietly shifted from “undervalued and overlooked” to one of the industry’s busiest settlement layers. Daily active addresses hover around 2 million, with previously published figures near 2.4 million, while on‑chain transaction volume grew by about 600% year‑on‑year, putting BNB Chain among the top networks by throughput. In parallel, BNB’s spot and derivatives markets have turned into a magnet for volatility traders: after an October crash wiped out nearly $19 billion in leveraged positions across the market, BNB only dropped around 10% before rebounding, later trading in a volatile $1,100–$1,340 range and printing new all‑time highs above $1,330. Order books on major exchanges now show thick resting bids clustering just below $1,100 and a stubborn sell wall in the $1,330–$1,370 band—a structure that tells you exactly where the next liquidation cascade or squeeze will start. If BNB loses that $1,100 shelf, this rally dies fast; a clean break above $1,370, by contrast, almost certainly drags in fresh momentum accounts aiming at $1,450–$1,600.​ Yet Zhao spends more time talking about stablecoins than price action. He is blunt: “What we’re seeing today is still mostly ‘stablecoin 1.0,’ and true 2.0 is only just beginning.” The legacy model—deposit dollars in a bank, issue tokens like Tether’s USDT on chain—remains dominant, with network effects keeping USDT in the lead even as it offers little in the way of yield. “USDT isn’t particularly competitive when it comes to yield, and that creates an opening for other stablecoins,” he said, pointing to newer designs like Ethena, where “yield mechanisms are built into the design” and where YZi Labs has taken a stake.​ BNB and YZi Labs, where do they go next? On BNB Chain specifically, he frames stablecoin competition as an “open garden” rather than a horse race. USDT circulates on BNB Chain as a wrapped asset, but Zhao argues the real story is the arrival of genuinely native options: USD1 as a U.S.‑backed collateral model, earlier experiments like FUSD that stalled due to clunky issuance, and newer plays such as the $U project, which he says “has some potential as well.” The endgame, in his view, is simple but brutally hard to execute: a stablecoin that is easy to trade, widely listed, and still offers sustainable yield. Ignore any design that can’t hit all three.​ Prediction markets are the other narrative he refuses to dismiss as a fad. Zhao credits Kalshi and Polymarket with dragging the category into the mainstream during the last U.S. election cycle, where Polymarket saw more than $3.6 billion in betting volume and effectively front‑ran traditional polling with sharper odds. “In many cases, its outcomes were even more accurate than traditional polling, because participants are putting real money on the line,” he said. YZi Labs has backed multiple early‑stage prediction platforms, including BNB Chain‑based projects like Probable and the newly launched Opinion, where Zhao confirmed the firm is only a minority investor.​ Crucially, he insists this is not a winner‑takes‑all map. “This isn’t a ‘winner-takes-all race.’ In any market, multiple players usually coexist,” Zhao said, drawing a line from exchanges to stablecoins to prediction markets. That logic also underpins his skepticism toward subscription‑based AI trading agents; the more a profitable strategy is sold, the faster it breaks. Platform businesses—exchanges, prediction markets, even RWA tokenization rails—can scale on fees and spreads, but shared alpha is, in his words, a self‑extinguishing product.​ If there is a single through‑line in Zhao’s 2025 playbook, it is patience. “Success takes time,” he said, likening BNB Chain’s trajectory to Nvidia’s decades‑long climb and describing building as a “marathon mixed with a boxing match.” Mission‑driven founders, not tourists chasing the next memecoin meta, are the ones he wants to fund—and the ones he expects to still be standing in 2027 when today’s narratives have been repriced, recycled, or revealed as pure exit liquidity.

Trump-linked $WLFI says USD1 just hit a $3B market cap 💵 They call it an early milestone, not the end goal. $ZKC Stablecoins are scaling fast - and politics is clearly entering the arena. How big could USD1 really get from here?

Crypto traders were jolted on Christmas Day when Bitcoin charts flashed an eye‑watering price drop below $25,000 — only to snap back to around $87,000 within seconds. While the visuals suggested chaos, the event was confined to a niche trading pair and did not reflect broader market weakness. As reported by Max Crypto on X, the plunge occurred on Binance’s BTC/USD1 pair, where Bitcoin briefly touched $24,111 before recovering almost immediately. This dramatic swing was caused by the low liquidity of the USD1 pairing rather than any fundamental issue with Bitcoin itself. Major pairs such as BTC/USDT remained anchored around $87,000, highlighting that mainstream markets were unaffected. WTF JUST HAPPENED❓ BTC/USD1 crashed below $25,000 on Binance. pic.twitter.com/4HS3MYJcCv — Max Crypto (@MaxCrypto) December 25, 2025 USD1 Stablecoin Under the Spotlight The crash underscores the unique risks associated with the USD1 stablecoin. Backed by the Trump family and promoted with a 20% APY deposit incentive, USD1 has seen unusually high swap volumes. Its shallow order books make it highly sensitive to large trades, especially during thin holiday market conditions, where even a single significant sell order can trigger extreme price distortions. Market Mechanics Behind the Dip Flash crashes in low‑liquidity pairs often result from abrupt market imbalances. When large orders hit limited buy-side depth, automated stop-loss triggers and arbitrage bots amplify the movement, producing what traders call a “flash wick.” In this case, arbitrage activity quickly restored prices, preventing any spillover into major trading venues. We are on X, follow us to connect with us :- @TimesTabloid1 — TimesTabloid (@TimesTabloid1) June 15, 2025 Implications for Traders and Markets Although visually alarming, the BTC/USD1 event serves as a reminder that not all crypto pairs are created equal. Traders must account for liquidity and market depth when entering positions in newly launched or exotic instruments. For exchanges and developers, it highlights the potential for price anomalies in small‑cap or incentivized tokens, even when the underlying asset — Bitcoin — remains fundamentally strong. In conclusion, the BTC/USD1 crash is a textbook example of a microstructure event: dramatic in appearance, fleeting in effect. Mainstream Bitcoin markets stayed calm while charts briefly spiked, showing this episode was a liquidity glitch, not a sign of Bitcoin’s real value. Max Crypto’s coverage underscores the importance of understanding market mechanics and liquidity risks when navigating emerging trading pairs.
