Trump-Linked World Liberty Gets Conditional Bank Charter for USD1 Stablecoin

60-second summary

The proposed World Liberty Trust Company, linked to former US President Donald Trump, receives a conditional bank charter for issuing the USD1 stablecoin, a move that could potentially replace BitGo as the issuer. The charter is conditional on meeting regulatory requirements, a process expected to take several months. This development may increase competition in the stablecoin market.

The proposed World Liberty Trust Company would take over issuance of the USD1 stablecoin from BitGo.
