Spacecoin Announces Strategic Partnership With WLFI to Expand DeFi Connectivity

3 min read
  • WLFI has partnered with Spacecoin, allowing the latter’s satellite network to facilitate DeFi transactions.
  • WLFI will enable USD1 stablecoin accessibility by token swap mechanism and LEO satellite connection.

World Liberty Financial (WLFI), the crypto project associated with US President Donald Trump, has announced a new partnership with satellite network operator Spacecoin to tap its satellite network to boost access to decentralized finance (DeFi). The USD1 stablecoin is at the core of the collaboration, and both parties are to deploy it into Spacecoin’s low-earth orbit satellite network. This will enable payment and settlement in areas underserved by the conventional financial systems.

According to a statement from WLFI co-founder Zak Folkman, the move prioritizes “execution and long-term utility.” He added that USD1 is designed for real-world financial activity, especially in environments where financial access is limited. Spacecoin confirmed it has already launched three satellites into orbit and intends to use them as a foundation for decentralized physical infrastructure that connects users to Web3 financial tools.

Spacecoin founder Tae Oh said users coming online for the first time through this network will immediately gain access to transacting capabilities via USD1, noting:

WLFI Expands DeFi Footprint While Building USD1 Ecosystem

As World Liberty Financial expands its satellite presence, it continues to broaden its stablecoin ecosystem and regulatory groundwork. As CNF reported, the firm recently filed for a trust charter to launch World Liberty Trust Company (WLTC), a step intended to boost USD1 usage in formal financial settings.

Earlier this month, WLFI also signed a sovereign partnership with Pakistan to explore USD1’s role in remittances and government payments, giving the stablecoin potential exposure in a major remittance corridor. Moreover, the company is collaborating with Spacecoin on a token swap system, but the details of the system are unreported.

In addition to the Spacecoin integration, WLFI has been concentrating on real-world asset (RWA) products and will support RWA products with USD1 acting as collateral. This is a product expansion that may invite institutional involvement, particularly as the company targets global applications. 

Additionally, USD1 has expanded consistently in terms of market share, and currently, its circulating market cap amounts to approximately $3.27 billion, placing it in the list of the top stablecoins

The company has also proposed utilizing a portion of its treasury to increase the supply of USD1 over centralized and decentralized exchanges to push further into adoption. Coinciding with the Spacecoin collaboration, the World Liberty Financial token WLFI is recording bullish momentum after a period of uncertainty. At press time, WLFI was trading at $0.1717, a 1.31% jump from the support level.

Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For

Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For

The post Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Topline The Federal Reserve on Wednesday will conclude a two-day policymaking meeting and release a decision on whether to lower interest rates—following months of pressure and criticism from President Donald Trump—and potentially signal whether additional cuts are on the way. President Donald Trump has urged the central bank to “CUT INTEREST RATES, NOW, AND BIGGER” than they might plan to. Getty Images Key Facts The central bank is poised to cut interest rates by at least a quarter-point, down from the 4.25% to 4.5% range where they have been held since December to between 4% and 4.25%, as Wall Street has placed 100% odds of a rate cut, according to CME’s FedWatch, with higher odds (94%) on a quarter-point cut than a half-point (6%) reduction. Fed governors Christopher Waller and Michelle Bowman, both Trump appointees, voted in July for a quarter-point reduction to rates, and they may dissent again in favor of a large cut alongside Stephen Miran, Trump’s Council of Economic Advisers’ chair, who was sworn in at the meeting’s start on Tuesday. It’s unclear whether other policymakers, including Kansas City Fed President Jeffrey Schmid and St. Louis Fed President Alberto Musalem, will favor larger cuts or opt for no reduction. Fed Chair Jerome Powell said in his Jackson Hole, Wyoming, address last month the central bank would likely consider a looser monetary policy, noting the “shifting balance of risks” on the U.S. economy “may warrant adjusting our policy stance.” David Mericle, an economist for Goldman Sachs, wrote in a note the “key question” for the Fed’s meeting is whether policymakers signal “this is likely the first in a series of consecutive cuts” as the central bank is anticipated to “acknowledge the softening in the labor market,” though they may not “nod to an October cut.” Mericle said he…

Wormhole launches reserve tying protocol revenue to token

Wormhole launches reserve tying protocol revenue to token

The post Wormhole launches reserve tying protocol revenue to token appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Wormhole is changing how its W token works by creating a new reserve designed to hold value for the long term. Announced on Wednesday, the Wormhole Reserve will collect onchain and offchain revenues and other value generated across the protocol and its applications (including Portal) and accumulate them into W, locking the tokens within the reserve. The reserve is part of a broader update called W 2.0. Other changes include a 4% targeted base yield for tokenholders who stake and take part in governance. While staking rewards will vary, Wormhole said active users of ecosystem apps can earn boosted yields through features like Portal Earn. The team stressed that no new tokens are being minted; rewards come from existing supply and protocol revenues, keeping the cap fixed at 10 billion. Wormhole is also overhauling its token release schedule. Instead of releasing large amounts of W at once under the old “cliff” model, the network will shift to steady, bi-weekly unlocks starting October 3, 2025. The aim is to avoid sharp periods of selling pressure and create a more predictable environment for investors. Lockups for some groups, including validators and investors, will extend an additional six months, until October 2028. Core contributor tokens remain under longer contractual time locks. Wormhole launched in 2020 as a cross-chain bridge and now connects more than 40 blockchains. The W token powers governance and staking, with a capped supply of 10 billion. By redirecting fees and revenues into the new reserve, Wormhole is betting that its token can maintain value as demand for moving assets and data between chains grows. This is a developing story.
