USD1 Launch on Solana Boosts Market with $1.2B Trading Volume

USD1 stablecoin launched on Solana, achieving a $1.2 billion trading volume in the first month, as confirmed by WLFI and Solana officials in September 2025.

The USD1 launch enhances Solana’s DeFi ecosystem and cross-chain liquidity, drawing significant attention and volume from major exchanges.

USD1 Minting and Exchange Integration Propel Success

The launch of USD1 on Solana, managed by WLFI, was marked by a 100 million token minting and integration with several large exchanges, introducing the stablecoin to a new blockchain ecosystem.

With endorsements from notable figures like Anatoly Yakovenko and Donald Trump, the project gains mainstream traction, highlighted by plans to expand liquidity pools and financial backing amounting to $2.26 billion.

Solana’s DeFi Activity Escalates with USD1 Launch

Presiding over significant market movements, the USD1 launch increases activity on Solana‘s DeFi protocols like Raydium, with experts predicting growth in liquidity and usage across the ecosystem.

Such an expansion not only affects Solana but also induces liquidity transfers among existing networks like Ethereum and Binance, aiming to leverage multi-chain integrations. Raydium, Solana DeFi Protocol, stated, “Solana is about to get a lot more stable.”

USD1 Mirrors Tether and USDC Market Impact

Previous stablecoin expansions, similar to Tether and USDC, demonstrated marked increases in the host-chain TVL and ecosystem growth, akin to USD1’s trajectory on Solana.

If trends persist, USD1 could enhance cross-chain swap volumes and DeFi protocol adoption, placing USD1 alongside leading stablecoins in terms of liquidity offerings and utility. CharlesWLFI, Head of Solana Ecosystem, WLFI expressed, “USD1 is coming to Solana — sooner than you think. Thrilled to help bring @worldlibertyfi into the Solana ecosystem. We’re just getting started.”
