World Liberty Financial’s USD1 Chosen as Official Stablecoin for MGX's $2B Binance Investment
01.05.2025 10:45
  World Liberty Financial’s stablecoin, USD1, has been selected as the official stablecoin to facilitate Abu Dhabi’s AI investment firm MGX’s landmark $2 billion investment into Binance. At Token2049 on May 1, co-founder Zach Witkoff confirmed the decision, highlighting that this deal represents the largest investment ever made in a crypto company and the biggest ever transaction paid in stablecoins. The announcement underscores growing institutional interest in digital assets and the evolving role of stablecoins in executing significant financial transactions. Although the focus remains on the innovative role of USD1, the news also hints at broader market trends towards integrating stablecoins in major investment operations.
