USD1, a stablecoin indexed to the US Dollar and developed by World Liberty Financial, has gained the ability to operate across various networks through the integration with Chainlink’s Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP). The announcement was made by key figures like Sergey Nazarov, Chainlink’s co-founder, and Eric Trump during the Consensus 2025 event.
USD1 Stablecoin and Chainlink
Backed by the Trump family’s support, the USD1 stablecoin, designed with US Dollar collateral, has shown considerable growth since its inception. However, it still lags behind industry leaders Tether and Circle, with market capitalizations of $151 billion and $60.6 billion, respectively, compared to USD1’s $2.12 billion.
USD1’s value is supported by short-term US bonds and fiat reserves held at BitGo Trust, aligning with industry standards for asset backing, yet it was operational on a single network until now.
The new CCIP integration allows USD1 to be transferred seamlessly between different blockchain networks, initially implemented on Ethereum 
$2,308 and BNB Chain, with plans to integrate more networks in the near future. This move highlights Chainlink’s support, reinforcing the project’s long-term growth potential.
Security vulnerabilities in past cross-chain bridges resulted in approximately $3 billion in losses for users, making the new integration noteworthy for improving both security and functionality.
Chainlink (LINK)
According to organizational statements, Chainlink’s new function aims to bridge traditional financial systems with decentralized finance. Zak Folkman, co-founder of World Liberty Financial, emphasizes the convergence of these two financial domains, believing this integration will shape the future of finance.
The collaboration furthers a prior integration, where World Liberty used Chainlink’s price feeds during the deployment of the Aave v3 platform, symbolizing a continuous partnership.
Thanks to the cross-chain compatibility provided by Chainlink 
$9, the USD1 stablecoin from World Liberty Financial is poised to reach more users and platforms. Both companies share the view that such integrations enhance market transparency, security, and functionality, promoting the growth of stablecoin volumes with improved security measures and cross-network portability. Chainlink’s infrastructure plays a vital role in the secure transfer of digital assets across different blockchains, accelerating the reach of new stablecoins like USD1 to a broader audience.
