Binance WLFI airdrop

BINANCE KICKS OFF $40M WLFI AIRDROP CAMPAIGN FOR USD1 TOKEN HOLDERS

ByMolly McNearney

Binance, one of the world’s leading cryptocurrency exchanges, has rolled out a new rewards program for users holding USD1 stablecoins, with $40 million in WLFI tokens allocated for distribution. The campaign aims to incentivize holding USD1 while promoting engagement with the World Liberty Financial (WLFI) ecosystem.

SOLANA REVENUE GAINS ON ETHEREUM AS STRUCTURED YIELD PLATFORMS ATTRACT INVESTORS

Accounts maintaining a USD1 balance between January 23 and February 20 will be eligible to receive weekly WLFI airdrops throughout the program.

How the WLFI Airdrop Works

The WLFI rewards will be distributed weekly, beginning February 2, with each distribution covering the previous seven days. Binance plans to release approximately $10 million in WLFI tokens per week over the four-week campaign.

Eligibility and Balance Calculation

Eligibility is determined by net USD1 balances held across multiple account types:

  • Spot accounts
  • Funding accounts
  • Margin accounts

USDⓈ-M Futures accounts

Borrowing USD 1 does not count toward rewards. Users holding USD1 as collateral in margin or futures accounts may earn a higher reward rate, depending on their net balance.

Binance will take hourly snapshots of USD1 balances and use the lowest balance recorded each day to determine a user’s qualifying amount. First, Binance takes hourly snapshots of user balances. Binance calculates weekly rewards using the seven-day average balance and the effective annualized rate determined at the time of distribution.

To join the campaign, users must:

  • Complete identity verification (KYC)
  • Reside in eligible jurisdictions
  • Binance excludes broker accounts and determines the exact timing of rewards based on operational factors.

USD1 and WLFI: Growing Adoption and Activity

USD1 Stablecoin Overview

Launched in April 2025, USD1 is a multichain stablecoin fully backed one-to-one by U.S. dollars and money market funds. The token has seen record growth, with its market capitalization surpassing $3 billion, according to DeFiLlama. USD1 is available across multiple blockchains, including:

  • Monad
  • Ethereum
  • Solana
  • Aptos

The stablecoin is increasingly used for payments, DeFi activity, and digital asset trading.

WLFI Token Activity

WLFI, the native token of the World Liberty Financial ecosystem, has seen heightened activity in early 2026, fueled by:

  • Integration into payroll services
  • Use on DeFi lending platforms
  • On-chain liquidity provision

While WLFI has attracted growing interest and partnerships, its reported connections to U.S. President Donald Trump have drawn criticism, with some observers highlighting potential conflicts of interest.

Key Points

  • Weekly airdrops start February 2, covering the previous 7-day period.
  • Eligibility is based on net USD1 balances, excluding borrowed amounts.
