World Liberty Financial to Explore Tokenization of Commodities and Bills, Launches Stablecoin on Aptos

World Liberty Financial, the crypto project co-founded by Donald Trump Jr., announced plans to significantly expand its offerings by exploring the tokenization of real-world assets, including various commodities and tokenized bills.

Speaking at the Token2049 conference in Singapore on Wednesday, World Liberty Financial CEO Zack Witkoff confirmed the company is “actively working on” these plans, a report by The Block said.

“I think commodities are a really interesting area for us, whether it be oil, gas, things like cotton, timber, all of those things, frankly, should be traded on chain,” Witkoff said.

The project intends to pair these tokenized assets with its existing dollar-pegged stablecoin, USD1, which Witkoff described as the most “trustworthy and transparent stablecoin pairing” required for such assets.

The announcement came alongside news that the USD1 stablecoin—which has a market capitalization of around $2.7 billion, making it the fifth largest in the world—will launch on the Aptos blockchain. This move marks Aptos as the first Move-based blockchain to support the stablecoin, which already runs on other major networks.

Beyond its core tokens—the WLFI governance token and the USD1 stablecoin—the company is continuing its development of a mobile app, wallet system, and a debit card. Witkoff revealed the debit card is expected to launch in Q4 2025 or Q1 2026.
