On May 22, 2025, the market trend continued to rise, with Bit breaking through its historical high to reach $110,000, and under the background of the "GENIUS Act" passing, an "unexpected" stablecoin USD 1 quietly became the market focus.
According to official news, Binance will officially launch the USD 1/USDT trading pair at 20:00 today, becoming the third mainstream exchange to support USD 1 after HTX and MEXC. With USD 1's strong breakout, the market also ushered in a wave of "US dollar hot money + Trump label" linkage.
On the rise list, tokens with "WLFI concept + USD 1 concept" double support performed exceptionally. HAEDAL surged 69.45%, LISTA rose 60%, COOKIE jumped 33.37%, STO quickly rose over 20% after officially announcing integration with WLFI, and B (BUILDonBsc_AI) on Binance Alpha platform even skyrocketed 192% in a single day.
WLFI officially announced support for USD 1 and purchased token B, with some in the community believing USD 1 might become the "new king of stablecoin wars", potentially even replacing FDUSD as Binance's main stablecoin. USD 1 not only has strong support from the Trump family but is also deeply bound with Binance.
Under the dual halo of politics and business, USD 1 seems destined to be extraordinary.
This wave of "USD 1 fever" has made investors smell an Alpha opportunity. How will USD 1 break through with "political capital + exchange binding"? How will WLFI leverage this to co-build a new ecological high ground with Binance? Which other "Trump Yang Mou" concept tokens are worth focusing on?
USD 1 Comprehensively Breaks Out, Analyzing WLFI and Binance Ecosystem Binding
USD 1 is a US dollar-anchored stablecoin issued by World Liberty Financial (WLFI) in March 2025, targeting 1:1 USD exchange, with assets 100% backed by short-term US Treasury bonds and US dollar deposits, and custodied by BitGo Trust Company. With strong endorsement from the Trump family, including co-founder Eric Trump, USD 1 has been attracting traffic since its launch.
In just two months, USD 1's market value soared from $128 million to $2.1 billion, ranking among the top seven global stablecoins. Its circulation on the BNB chain accounts for as high as 90%, and it was first listed on mainstream exchanges like HTX.
Meanwhile, it has completed multi-chain deployment through Chainlink's CCIP protocol, currently supporting Ethereum and BNB Chain.
In May, USD 1's heat continued to rise, not only facilitating Abu Dhabi MGX's $2 billion investment in Binance through USD 1 but also launching a zero-fee policy on the BNB chain.
Some users even speculate that Binance is "testing the waters" with USD 1 on the Alpha platform, intending to build it into the core stablecoin of BNB Chain.
Behind this wave of USD 1-triggered boom, the most eye-catching are a series of potential projects labeled with "Trump's tag".
Hottest "Trump Yang Mou" Concept Targets
Below, we will inventory several current market's hottest "Trump concept" targets.
Binance Alpha Ecosystem Token
B (BUILDonBsc_AI)
B token was listed on Binance Alpha on May 21, surging 192% in a single day with a trading volume of $80 million. As one of the first tokens to support USD 1 trading pair, and with WLFI's official support, B is also known as the representative of the "Trump Yang Mou" concept.
The project focuses on AI and blockchain integration, with plans to launch prediction market functions in the future. Binance has repeatedly promoted B on the X platform, and Eric Trump's mention of USD 1 and emerging tokens at Consensus 2025 indirectly added heat and trust endorsement to B.
WLFI Ecosystem Tokens
HAEDAL
HAEDAL rose 69.45% on May 22, considered an early project in the WLFI ecosystem. The community calls HAEDAL the "WLFI concept dark horse" with high discussion heat.
LISTA
LISTA rose 46.62% on May 22. WLFI and Lista DAO reached a strategic cooperation, with USD 1 now online in the ListaDAO treasury, benefiting from USD 1's multi-chain deployment. LISTA focuses on decentralized lending. If the WLFI ecosystem expands, its liquidity will significantly improve. The community sees LISTA as a "long-term WLFI concept target". Lista DAO's lending product Lista Lending went online with USD 1 Vault, becoming the first application of USD 1 on BNB Chain.
STO（StakeStone）
StakeStone rose 20% on May 22 after announcing integration with WLFI. The official plan is to create a more flexible cross-chain yield experience based on STONE and USD 1. As an infrastructure focusing on full-chain liquidity, StakeStone has integrated 20+ chains and 100+ protocols. Its yield token STONE can enhance asset utilization for USD 1 users while maintaining liquidity. Currently, only cooperation has been officially announced, with no large-scale purchase.
COOKIE
As an entertainment token in the WLFI ecosystem, COOKIE rose 33.37% on May 22, 2025. The project team plans to launch an NFT game based on COOKIE in the future, enhancing user interaction and token utility, further enriching WLFI ecosystem's entertainment and metaverse layout.
USD 1 Related MEME Tokens
usd 1 doge and wlfidoge
usd 1 doge achieved a 10-fold surge on May 21, 2025, with market value jumping from $130,000 to $6 million. Within just 10 days, its rise was nearly 5-fold. Due to its name directly containing USD 1, the market generally sees usd 1 doge as one of the representatives of the "Trump Yang Mou" concept.
Additionally, the community believes usd 1 doge is one of the earliest tokens on the BSC chain to support USD 1 trading pair, even earlier than the B token on Binance Alpha. usd 1 doge and another token wlfidoge also saw significant rises with the news of USD 1's launch.
EAGLE
EAGLE is the first token on the Ethereum chain related to USD 1, recently performing prominently in USD 1 trading pairs with short-term gains of 50% to 70%. However, since it runs on the Ethereum chain rather than the more active BSC chain, fund follow-up is relatively slow, making it difficult to quickly attract speculative funds in the short term.
From Binance Alpha's B (192% rise), to WLFI ecosystem's HAEDAL (69.45%), LISTA (46.62%), to meme coin usd 1 doge's 10-fold takeoff, the market heat demonstrates USD 1's powerful driving effect.
However, USD 1's regulatory uncertainty and market volatility still require caution. Investors should pay attention to Binance Alpha dynamics and X community discussions, seize Alpha opportunities in the "Trump Yang Mou" wave, while also managing risks.
