Trump-Linked DeFi Project World Liberty Teams With Re7 for USD1 Stablecoin Vault
World Liberty Financial (WLF), the decentralized finance (DeFi) protocol associated with U.S. President Donald Trump and his family, is working with Re7 Labs to establish a vault for its USD1 stablecoin on lending platforms Euler and Lista, the companies said in a statement Friday. The move is part of World Liberty's broader initiative to scale USD1 across Binance's BNB Chain, a blockchain known for its low transaction costs and high-speed infrastructure. The stablecoin is positioned as a dollar-pegged digital asset designed for use within DeFi ecosystems. Re7 Labs, an arm of London-based DeFi hedge fund Re7 Capital, is playing a key role in the effort. Just last week, Re7 Labs disclosed it would receive up to $10 million from Hong Kong-based VMS Group. The family office, which oversees roughly $4 billion in assets, is making its first foray into crypto with the investment. 'This collaboration reflects a shared commitment to building the next generation of DeFi infrastructure — where stability, transparency and capital efficiency converge,' said Evgeny Gokhberg, founder of Re7 Capital, said in the statement. 'Working alongside World Liberty, Euler and BNB Chain, we're advancing a model for stablecoin adoption that meets the expectations of both crypto-native and institutional users.' Euler and Lista are decentralized lending platforms that enable users to borrow and lend digital assets using smart contracts. The addition of a USD1 stablecoin vault to these platforms could make it easier for traders and institutions to access dollar-pegged liquidity within the DeFi environment.

Trump's World Liberty Gains Another International Crypto Partner
(Bloomberg) -- World Liberty Financial Inc. is entering into a partnership with an arm of Re7 Capital, a decentralized-finance hedge fund based in London that is set to receive up to $10 million in investment from Hong Kong family office VMS Group.

The Trump family affiliated decentralized finance platform plans on launching a USD1 stablecoin vault on Euler and Lista with Re7 Labs, the innovation arm of Re7 Capital, according to a joint statement between World Liberty Financial and Re7. The move is a part of a larger initiative to scale World Liberty's USD1 on Binance's BNB Chain, the decentralized blockchain ecosystem of the world's largest crypto platform. 'This collaboration reflects a shared commitment to building the next generation of DeFi infrastructure—where stability, transparency, and capital efficiency converge,' said Evgeny Gokhberg, founder of Re7 Capital. 'Working alongside World Liberty, Euler, and BNB Chain, we're advancing a model for stablecoin adoption that meets the expectations of both crypto-native and institutional users.' VMS Group, a money manager to some of Hong Kong's richest individuals, is making its first foray into crypto with its investment into Re7 Capital, Bloomberg News reported this week. Re7 has said it uses a market-neutral strategy through which it earns yield by providing liquidity on DeFi exchanges and by lending stablecoins — while using hedging to mitigate price swings. On Thursday, United Arab Emirates based Aqua 1 Foundation said it bought $100 million of World Liberty tokens, the second Middle East-based investor to put money into the platform. The investment will make the little known crypto fund the largest individual investor of the Trump-backed digital asset project, surpassing crypto entrepreneur Justin Sun, who's also an adviser to World Liberty. In May, MGX, a technology investment firm established by Abu Dhabi's sovereign wealth fund, used World Liberty's USD1 stablecoin to facilitate its $2 billion investment in Binance. Last month, the US Securities and Exchange Commission moved to end its legal battle against Binance, the latest sign of the regulator's dramatic shift in how it polices cryptocurrency. The regulator and the exchange's co-founder Changpeng Zhao filed a joint motion to stay the case in the US District Court for the District of Columbia. The move followed a joint request in February to pause the lawsuit for 60 days.
