Long framed by its ideological roots, the project is 60% owned by the president\u2019s family. Critics argue that the USD1 stablecoin could lead to indirect financial gains for President Trump or open the door to foreign influence on U.S. policy.<\/p>\n<p>The USD1 stablecoin, backed by U.S. Treasuries and cash equivalents, is being pitched to institutions wary of unregulated dollar-pegged tokens as a regulatory-friendly alternative to existing options.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWLFI and Vaulta share a common mission: to build the connective tissue between traditional finance and DeFi,\u201d said Zak Folkman, Co-Founder of World Liberty Financial. \u201cBy integrating USD1 into Vaulta\u2019s Web3 banking infrastructure, we\u2019re making decentralized finance more practical, compliant, and accessible for everyday users and institutions alike.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The rebranded EOS Foundation has spent the past year repositioning itself as a banking operating system, offering near-instant settlement and interoperability across blockchains. Its infrastructure supports enterprise-grade DeFi applications and cross-border payments.<\/p>\n<p>The partnership\u2019s timing also suggests deeper strategic alignment. Just one day before the partnership was announced, WLFI purchased 3,400 ETH worth $13 million, adding to its growing $275 million Ethereum reserve.<\/p>\n<p>The move signals aggressive treasury diversification, blending crypto-native assets with strategic partnerships like Vaulta\u2019s. Meanwhile, WLFI\u2019s governance token holders recently approved a proposal to make the token tradable within weeks, further integrating the project into the broader cryptocurrency market.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Trump-linked World Liberty Financial has found a new ally in Vaulta, the rebranded EOS Foundation.
