Gate.io Expands USD1 Rewards and Features
USD1 has grown rapidly and ranks among the top stablecoins by market capitalization. The new points program builds on this momentum and attracts more users. Market participants expect stronger liquidity and deeper engagement with USD1 activities.
Gate.io stressed that yield products, launchpad activities, and other features will soon integrate with the program. This expansion will create more reasons to use USD1 daily. As a result, the stablecoin ecosystem will likely gain wider acceptance.
World Liberty Financial also emphasized the importance of making USD1 a leading choice for traders. With regular updates and transparent reward cycles, the program highlights user trust. The company continues to add measures that reinforce USD1 adoption globally.
WLFI Lockbox and Token Unlock
Alongside the program, World Liberty Financial activated its Lockbox mechanism on August 25. The Lockbox requires WLFI token holders to deposit tokens before the September 1 unlock. This step prepares the market for increased token circulation.
The WLFI presale raised $2.26 billion, making it one of the largest offerings this year. Community voting in July approved that 20% of presale tokens become tradable after the unlock. The remaining tokens will continue serving governance purposes.
Despite criticism over large transfers and political ties, WLFI secured funding and listings. Market focus now shifts to stability and liquidity during the unlock phase. Therefore, the Lockbox aims to balance participation and protect token value.
