Key Takeaways
- Myriad integrates $USD1 stablecoin as its first base settlement asset on $BNB Chain.
- The integration aims to standardize liquidity and infrastructure while boosting stablecoin utility in prediction markets.
Myriad Markets, a prediction market protocol, has integrated World Liberty Financial’s $USD1 stablecoin as its first base settlement asset, bringing the dollar-backed token to $BNB Chain as part of a broader product expansion.
The integration went live earlier today with $USD1-denominated markets, starting with Myriad’s Candles product, a market structure designed for short timeframes, continuous liquidity, and automated resolution. $USD1 pools will initially be available to users outside the US.
Following the rollout, Myriad plans to transition its $BNB prediction markets to operate exclusively with $USD1 during the first quarter of 2026, consolidating liquidity and standardizing infrastructure across the protocol.
“Myriad’s integration of $USD1 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.
Farokh Sarmad, co-founder and president of Myriad, noted the personal significance of the partnership.
“From the moment I interviewed President Trump in September 2024, I knew WLFI would be something the team, their partners, and the broader industry would take very seriously,” Sarmad said. “This announcement is a full-circle moment as Myriad becomes the first prediction market using $USD1 as a base settlement asset.”
Additional market formats and features are planned as part of a phased expansion in early 2026.
