Coinbase Lists Trump-backed World Liberty Financial USD1 Stablecoin

Coinbase announced the addition of World Liberty Financial USD (USD1) to its roadmap, further diversifying its pipeline of potential listings. The Trump-backed stablecoin joins a roster of ERC-20, Base, and Solana-based tokens under consideration, reflecting Coinbase’s ongoing effort to provide broad market exposure. Assets added to the roadmap today: World Liberty Financial USD (USD1)https://t.co/rRB9d3hSr2 — Coinbase Assets 🛡️ (@CoinbaseAssets) August 21, 2025 On Ethereum, new roadmap entries include QCAD (QCAD), Dolomite (DOLO), SPX6900 (SPX), and World Liberty Financial USD (USD1). For the Base network, AWE Network (AWE) and Flock (FLOCK) were added. On Solana, Solayer (LAYER) is now under review. USD1 is officially on @Coinbase!!! More @worldlibertyfi news to come very soon! https://t.co/GaDxpHAlH3 — Eric Trump (@EricTrump) August 21, 2025 Eric Trump, Vice President of the Trump Media Group and WLFI Co-founder, confirmed the news on X, drawing attention to the project’s progress and potential upcoming announcements. In the official blog post, Coinbase also stressed that these roadmap updates do not guarantee listing, as trading only commences once liquidity support and infrastructure are established. Assets may also debut under the company’s “Experimental” label, designed for projects with higher risk profiles. Risk Controls and Compliance Remain Priority The exchange emphasized that users should avoid depositing assets prematurely, warning that doing so before an official listing announcement could result in permanent fund loss. Coinbase reiterated that inclusion on the roadmap reflects compliance and technical review, not popularity or market capitalization. According to the company, some tokens fail to meet minimum legal, security, or compliance thresholds and are excluded from listing despite community interest. Meanwhile, efforts continue to expand support across token standards, including Ethereum’s ERC-20, Solana’s SPL, and others, aligning with Coinbase’s mission to broaden accessible digital assets while maintaining regulatory safeguards. Coinfutures Sees Rising Interest as Coinbase Expands Market Reach While Coinbase grows its potential listings, Coinfutures has been attracting attention in derivatives markets. The platform offers up to 1000x leverage on assets including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Dogecoin, and Solana. CoinFutures offers 1000x leverage on Bitcoin and other popular cryptocurrencies.

Kanye West Teases YZY Card, Crypto Payments Amid Controversial Token Launch

Kanye West Teases YZY Card, Crypto Payments Amid Controversial Token Launch

The post Kanye West Teases YZY Card, Crypto Payments Amid Controversial Token Launch appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Kanye West’s Yeezy Money token launched on Solana with promises of a payments revolution, only to face insider concentration concerns. U.S. hip-hop provocateur Kanye West, known as Ye, has launched a Solana-based token called Yeezy Money (YZY), teasing a sprawling crypto payments ecosystem that puts his brand — and his fans’ wallets — squarely in the spotlight. In a Thursday announcement on X, West wrote: “Yeezy Money is here… A new economy, built on chain,” sharing the token’s contract address and a link to a website for buying, selling, and sending YZY. An alleged design of the YZY Card The YZY ecosystem, according to West’s website, includes “Ye Pay,” a payment processor allowing merchants to accept credit and crypto payments, and the “YZY Card,” a non-custodial debit card for spending YZY tokens and stablecoins like USDC and USDT at merchants worldwide. Checkout Options As of now, YZY appears as a checkout option on West’s official merchandise site, though it is not yet functional. Only 15% of Traders Profit The token’s debut was turbulent. YZY briefly surged to a $3 billion market capitalization within 40 minutes of its launch before retreating to around $1.05 billion, according to Dexscreener. Analytics firm Nansen shared data with The Defiant showing that over 60,000 wallets traded YZY within the first day. Of these, only 9,413 wallets realized profits of more than $10. There are also clear signs of fading memecoin hype as YZY logged just $724 million in first-day trading, well below the $29.5 billion generated during the debut of U.S. President Donald Trump’s memecoin. YZY Chart Concerns about insider concentration quickly followed. Coinbase director Conor Grogan noted in an X post that a large portion of the token supply was initially held by insiders, with one multi-signature wallet controlling as much as 87% at…
