World Liberty Financial (wlfi.site) (WLFI)

In the morning a friend asked if opening a Hong Kong card is troublesome; actually it's quite simple. You can apply online directly for HSBC and ZhongAn Bank, and just activate the card when it’s mailed back to the mainland. Personally I find ZhongAn more convenient, and it’s also handy for subscription to new stocks.

This actually reflects a market logic: whoever is smoother and simpler will attract the money. Seeing the Aster DEX × WLFI update conveys this idea—turning $USD1 into the sole settlement asset for TradFi perpetuals, no longer coexisting with USDT.

This step is clever, essentially binding liquidity, depth, and settlement demand all to #USD1. The upcoming RWA—gold, silver, crude oil—core assets will flow in, and with the potential token linkage of $WLFI, all demand will depend on it.

Combined with (potential future adjustments): negative maker fees to encourage liquidity provision, low taker fees to stimulate trading.

In one sentence: it's not about which asset you use, but which one is smoother to use; the market will choose that, and efficiency gains are the biggest narrative.

So, does anyone really dare to join the Matcha USD1 event?

The actual annualized return is indeed tempting.

However, it restricts mainland KYC.

Yesterday a friend asked me which CEX have USD1 investment products.

In fact, the official website usually has the most comprehensive index 👉 https://t.co/pN9CBXcwn9

On the USD1 Provider, filter by “Exchange” to see collaborations with 9 exchanges including Binance, Bitget, Bybit, Kraken, etc.; further filter by “Save” to confirm that Binance and MEXC are running deposit investment activities.

In addition, there are partnerships with 3 wallets, 7 DeFi projects, and 2 DEXes — the bear market broadens use cases, and we’ll see how high it climbs on the stablecoin ladder in the next bull market.
