World Liberty Financial to Launch Stablecoin-Linked Debit Card, Rules Out Proprietary Blockchain

World Liberty Financial unveiled plans for a debit card tied to its USD1 stablecoin during Korea Blockchain Week 2025. The card, integrating with Apple Pay and the company's app, aims to simplify digital dollar transactions for everyday use. Co-founder Zak Folkman confirmed an imminent launch but withheld specific timing.

A companion retail app described as "Venmo meets Robinhood" will combine Web2-style payments with crypto trading features. The dual offering targets mainstream adoption by blending familiar interfaces with digital asset functionality.

The firm deliberately avoids chain proliferation, with Folkman stating "We will never put out a World Liberty Financial chain." Instead, the company maintains a chain-agnostic approach, positioning itself as an interoperability LAYER across existing ecosystems rather than a competitor to base-layer protocols.
