World Liberty Financial has added a new on-chain market, quietly expanding how its ecosystem puts capital to work.

Summary
  • World Liberty Financial launched WorldLibertyMarkets, a lending platform built on Dolomite.
  • Users can supply or borrow assets including $USD1, $ETH, cbBTC, $USDC, and $USDT.
  • The platform is designed to support future tokenized real-world assets and governance-led expansion.

World Liberty Financial has rolled out a new lending product, adding another piece to its growing on-chain financial stack.

On Jan. 12, the Trump-affiliated project announced the launch of World Liberty Markets, a lending and borrowing platform built on top of Dolomite’s liquidity infrastructure.

A Dolomite-powered lending layer

World Liberty Markets allows users to supply assets to earn yield or borrow against their portfolios using Dolomite’s existing money market system. At launch, supported assets include $USD1, $WLFI, $ETH, cbBTC, $USDC, and $USDT.

World Liberty Markets is now live, built to give users access to transparent, high-performance liquidity markets provided by @dolomite_io. You can earn on supplied assets or borrow against your portfolio with fast, flexible liquidity. $WLFI Markets is designed to make these tools…

The platform positions $USD1, $WLFI’s dollar-pegged stablecoin, as a core asset within the system. Users can supply $USD1 to earn yield or use it as collateral, with $WLFI describing the product as a way to keep the stablecoin “productive” across its ecosystem.

Instead of creating a lending protocol from the ground up, $WLFI is relying on Dolomite’s well-established infrastructure, which will provide fast execution and flexible liquidity across various asset pairs. World Liberty Markets serves as a front-end layer, tailored specifically to $WLFI users and products.

Governance, incentives, and future expansion

$WLFI said the new market is intended to act as a unified interface for future services. $WLFI token holders will be able to propose and vote on new collateral types, incentive structures, and market parameters as the platform evolves.

Alongside the launch, $WLFI activated a $USD1 Points Program within World Liberty Markets. Users who supply $USD1 may earn points under terms set by launch partners, though the project noted that conditions may change and participation carries risk.

$WLFI’s rollout is part of a longer-term strategy centered on tokenized real-world assets. Rather than limiting itself to in-house products, the platform is being built to support both third-party and $WLFI-issued RWAs as they are introduced. Over time, this approach is meant to push $USD1 beyond purely crypto-native markets.

World Liberty Financial is also widening its presence at the intersection of crypto and traditional finance. The platform recently applied for a national trust bank charter through WLTC Holdings LLC, a move that would bring $USD1 issuance and custody under federal supervision.

That step has drawn attention, not just for what it enables, but because of $WLFI’s political ties and its stated ambitions inside regulated markets.

Inside the ecosystem, governance has been moving in the same direction. Treasury funds are being steered toward incentives designed to drive $USD1 adoption, a decision that effectively places the stablecoin at the center of $WLFI’s long-term strategy.
