World Liberty Financial Stablecoin USD1 Lands on Prediction Market Myriad

4 min read

In brief

  • Prediction market Myriad is integrating the USD1 stablecoin launched by Trump-backed DeFi project World Liberty Financial.
  • Myriad’s USD1 rollout will feature its Candles product, with users able to fund their positions in these markets with crypto or fiat through a partnership with crypto payments firm MoonPay.
  • The launch of Myriad’s Candles will also kick off the phased rollout of the Myriad In-App Wallet, with payments powered by MoonPay.

Prediction market Myriad will integrate USD1, the stablecoin launched by Trump-backed DeFi project World Liberty Financial. With the integration, Myriad becomes “the first prediction market to partner with WLFI to launch USD1 pools,” bringing USD1 on BNB Chain to the platform.

The integration of USD1 on Myriad “expands the real-world utility of stable, dollar-backed digital assets in emerging on-chain markets,” said Zach Witkoff, Co-Founder of World Liberty Financial. He added that prediction markets are a “growing category within decentralized finance,” with the Myriad integration bringing USD1 to “an environment where transparency, stability and user trust are essential.”

Myriad co-founder and president Farokh Sarmad called the integration a “full-circle moment,” following his interviews with Donald Trump and his sons Don Jr. and Eric at Mar-a-Lago in September 2024. “I knew WLFI would be something the Trump family and their partners would take very seriously,” Sarmad said.

Myriad’s USD1 rollout will feature its Candles product, previously announced as part of the prediction market’s integration with BNB Chain. Through a partnership with crypto payments firm MoonPay, Myriad users can fund their positions in these markets with crypto or fiat. Designed for speed and simplicity, Candles are automated markets built around auto-resolution, short timeframes, and continuous flow, enabling users to take part in fast-paced prediction or trading environments without waiting for long settlement cycles.

“We’re enabling a fast, reliable payment experience that simplifies how users access and engage with onchain markets, supporting Myriad as it continues to scale its platform,” said Ivan Soto-Wright, co-founder and CEO of MoonPay.

Candles will be further expanded through a “phased migration” in early 2026, adding new market formats and expanding their functionality.

The launch of Myriad’s Candles in partnership with WLFI will also kick off the phased rollout of the Myriad In-App Wallet, where payments will also be powered by MoonPay. Designed to deliver a “fully unified experience across the Myriad ecosystem,” the integration represents a “significant step forward” for the platform, Myriad Co-Founder and COO Ilan Hazan told Decrypt. “We believe it will accelerate adoption, strengthen product capabilities, and position Myriad for its next phase of growth.”

What is World Liberty Financial?

First announced in August 2024, World Liberty Financial is a DeFi project co-founded by U.S. President Donald Trump and led by DeFi builders Chase Herro and Zak Folkman, along with other members of the Trump family and Zach Witkoff.

Trump is listed as “co-founder emeritus” of World Liberty Financial, having stepped back from direct involvement in the project upon taking office in January 2025.

Billed as a “next-generation financial platform,” the platform promises to “unlock financial access for all” through its dollar-pegged stablecoin USD1, which runs on Ethereum and BNB Chain.

What is Myriad?

Launched by Decrypt’s parent company Dastan, Myriad is a platform that integrates prediction markets alongside written and video content from media outlets including Decrypt and Rug Radio.

Myriad aims to turn prediction markets into a “social layer for truth discovery,” Sarmad said, with the platform having hit a cumulative trading volume of over $167 million since its launch, alongside integrations with BNB Chain and Trust Wallet.

Shibarium May No Longer Turbocharge Shiba Inu Price Rally, Here’s Reason

The post Shibarium May No Longer Turbocharge Shiba Inu Price Rally, Here’s Reason appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Shibarium, the layer-2 blockchain of the Shiba Inu (SHIB) ecosystem, is battling to stay active. Shibarium has slipped from hitting transaction milestones to struggling to record any transactions on its platform, a development that could severely impact SHIB. Shibarium transactions crash from millions to near zero As per Shibariumscan data, the total daily transactions on Shibarium as of Sept. 16 stood at 11,600. This volume of transactions reflects how low the transaction count has dropped for the L2, whose daily average ranged between 3.5 million and 4 million last month. However, in the last week of August, daily transaction volume on Shibarium lost momentum, slipping from 1.3 million to 9,590 as of Aug. 28. This pattern has lingered for much of September, with the highest peak so far being on Sept. 5, when it posted 1.26 million transactions. The low user engagement has greatly affected the transaction count in recent days. In addition, the security breach over the weekend by malicious attackers on Shibarium has probably worsened issues. Although developer Kaal Dhairya reassured the community that the attack to steal millions of BONE tokens was successfully prevented, users’ confidence appears shaken. This has also impacted the price outlook for Shiba Inu, the ecosystem’s native token. Following reports of the malicious attack on Shibarium, SHIB dipped immediately into the red zone. Unlike on previous occasions where investors accumulated on the dip, market participants did not flock to Shiba Inu. Shiba Inu price struggles, can burn mechanism help? With the current near-zero crash in transaction volume for Shibarium, SHIB’s price cannot depend on it to support a rally. It might take a while to rebuild user confidence and for transactions to pick up again. In the meantime, Shiba Inu might have to rely on other means to boost prices from its low levels. This…

Wormhole launches reserve tying protocol revenue to token

Wormhole launches reserve tying protocol revenue to token

The post Wormhole launches reserve tying protocol revenue to token appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Wormhole is changing how its W token works by creating a new reserve designed to hold value for the long term. Announced on Wednesday, the Wormhole Reserve will collect onchain and offchain revenues and other value generated across the protocol and its applications (including Portal) and accumulate them into W, locking the tokens within the reserve. The reserve is part of a broader update called W 2.0. Other changes include a 4% targeted base yield for tokenholders who stake and take part in governance. While staking rewards will vary, Wormhole said active users of ecosystem apps can earn boosted yields through features like Portal Earn. The team stressed that no new tokens are being minted; rewards come from existing supply and protocol revenues, keeping the cap fixed at 10 billion. Wormhole is also overhauling its token release schedule. Instead of releasing large amounts of W at once under the old “cliff” model, the network will shift to steady, bi-weekly unlocks starting October 3, 2025. The aim is to avoid sharp periods of selling pressure and create a more predictable environment for investors. Lockups for some groups, including validators and investors, will extend an additional six months, until October 2028. Core contributor tokens remain under longer contractual time locks. Wormhole launched in 2020 as a cross-chain bridge and now connects more than 40 blockchains. The W token powers governance and staking, with a capped supply of 10 billion. By redirecting fees and revenues into the new reserve, Wormhole is betting that its token can maintain value as demand for moving assets and data between chains grows. This is a developing story.
