Stablecoin linked to Trump family sees market value rise after Binance yield launch

The market value of the USD1 stablecoin, associated with the Trump family’s World Liberty Financial project, rose by about $150 million after Binance introduced a yield program offering up to 20% APR on flexible deposits above $50,000. Binance’s promotion runs through January 23, 2026, and aims to provide passive rewards to holders as USD1’s presence in the exchange ecosystem expands.

The International Monetary Fund confirmed that El Salvador is advancing plans to sell its government-backed Chivo Bitcoin wallet, signalling a shift from direct state management of crypto infrastructure. In market activity tied to 2026 outlooks, an AI-focused token called DeepSnitch AI has raised over $885,000 in presale, with early price gains and staking activity noted as interest grows ahead of its January launch.
