Although WLFI experienced a pullback after its launch, the early adopters have actually realized significant profits. Subsequently, funds may overflow, leading to a second wave of speculation. We have categorized 8 types of participation methods based on buying tokens, DeFi, new projects, task interactions, and holding stocks.
1/8 Direct Token Purchase (Long-term Holding/Speculative Trading)
Directly buying related tokens, most of which are tied to the WLFI ecosystem. However, the volatility of meme coins is high, making them suitable for short-term speculation:
· @Dolomite_io ($DOLO), @BlockStreetXYZ ($BLOCK), and the WLFI team have a strong connection, with the price trends of these tokens closely linked to the WLFI narrative, which will be detailed later. In short, if you want to invest in the ecosystem's legitimate Beta, these two tokens should not be overlooked.
· @chainlink ($LINK): A well-known oracle token that provides cross-chain interoperability for USD1. As a large-cap blue-chip coin, Chainlink serves as the infrastructure for the WLFI ecosystem. You can buy the token and consider participating in the next round of LINK staking to earn returns (currently, the staking v0.2 pool is full).
· @aave ($AAVE): WLFI plans to share protocol revenue with Aave DAO, which may bring additional income and user traffic to Aave, an important bullish factor. However, there was a token split conflict before WLFI's launch, causing price fluctuations.
· @DoraUSD1 ($DORA), Torch of Liberty ($Liberty), @BUILDonBscAI ($B): These are meme coins based on the BNB chain's USD1 ecosystem. The price fluctuations are severe, and long-term heavy investment is not recommended; short-term speculative trading is acceptable.
2/8 DeFi Participation (Staking/Lending/Liquidity Mining)
These projects mainly provide on-chain staking, lending, LP mining, and other DeFi services, allowing participants to earn returns through protocol involvement:
USD1: An institutional-grade USD stablecoin issued by WLFI, compliant with U.S. regulatory frameworks, including the 2025 GENIUS Act. As of September 2, its market cap has surpassed $2.67 billion and has been deployed across multiple chains including BNB, ETH, Tron, and Solana.
Participation method: USD1 has been integrated with multiple DeFi platforms, allowing participation in the ListaDAO liquidity pool (approximately 4.8% annualized return) to earn returns. It can also be used for crypto payments through Umy and Pundi X.
@Dolomite_io: A lending protocol supporting multi-chain assets, aiming to become the core lending market for USD1.
Participation method: Provide USD1 lending liquidity on Dolomite or borrow USD1 to earn interest.
@FalconStable: Falcon Finance has launched the synthetic USD stablecoin protocol USDf and received a $10 million strategic investment from WLFI. Currently, Falcon has included USD1 as one of the available collateral assets.
Participation method: Use USD1 to mint USDf on the Falcon platform.
@lista_dao: A liquidity staking protocol that announced a partnership with WLFI in May to launch multiple USD1 application scenarios.
Participation method: Deposit into Lista's USD1 pool, currently around 4.8% in the Lista USD1 Vault.
@Stake_Stone: A full-chain liquidity distribution platform that launched the USD1 LiquidityPad in July, covering multi-chain USD1 scenarios.
Participation method: Deposit USD1 into the USD1 LiquidityPad, with an estimated annualized return of 18.57%.
@ethena_labs: Issued the USDe synthetic USD stablecoin and collaborated with WLFI to launch the yield-stablecoin sUSDe.
Participation method: Hold ENA tokens or pay attention to USD1 interoperable products on Ethena; currently, holding USDe allows you to stake for sUSDe to earn an annualized return of 5%-10%.
@OndoFinance: Exploring the integration of RWA assets like USDY, OUSG, and tokenized securities into the WLFI platform.
Participation method: Invest in these tokenized assets through the Ondo platform, such as buying USDY with an annualized return of around 4.2%.
@plumenetwork: As an RWA chain, it announced in July that USD1 would serve as the reserve asset for its on-chain stablecoin pUSD.
Participation method: Participate in various Vaults and staking on the Plume official website, with annualized returns ranging from 5%-15%.
@RaydiumProtocol: On the first day of WLFI's launch, USD1 also went live on Raydium, with multiple USD1 trading pairs and liquidity pools now available.
Participation method: Provide liquidity for USD1-SOL on Raydium, with current 24-hour APY ranging from 20%-200%.
@KaminoFinance: On the first day of WLFI's launch, USD1 also went live on Kamino.
Participation method: Currently, you can swap USD1 through Kamino.
@kernel_dao: A re-staking protocol that included USD1 as a re-staking asset at the end of May.
Participation method: You can stake USD1 on Kernel, but note that the current staking amount is low, and there are no clear returns.
3/8 Launchpad (New Projects/Primary Projects)
@bonk_fun: A Launchpad platform on Solana, designated as the official Launchpad for USD1 on the Solana chain.
@BlockStreetXYZ: The first official native Launchpad platform for USD1, with co-founder Matthew Morgan serving as an advisor to WLFI and Chief Investment Officer of ALT5.
@BUILDonBsc_AI: A meme coin on the BNB chain, originally named "BUILDon." After rebranding in July, it announced the launch of the first Launchpad for the USD1 ecosystem.
Participation method: Follow popular projects appearing on the Launchpad or projects strongly tied to WLFI.
4/8 WLFI Point Program
WLFI has partnered with exchanges such as Gate, Bitget, HTX, MEXC, and KuCoin to launch the USD1 points program.
Participation method: Trading USD1, holding USD1 long-term, or participating in staking activities can continuously accumulate points. These points may be linked to WLFI airdrops or other ecosystem benefits in the future, effectively packaging "trading + holding + wealth management" into an early user reward channel.
5/8 Task Interactions
Earn airdrop rewards through completing on-chain tasks and other interactive methods:
@TaggerAI: A decentralized AI data labeling platform that settles data orders in USD1 and plans to distribute task rewards to labelers in USD1. Currently, Tagger has also launched a sign-in task activity on Binance (see the Binance task page).
Participation method: Participate in labeling tasks on the Tagger platform, completing specified tasks to earn TAG tokens or USD1 rewards.
6/8 Stock Investment
ALT5 Sigma Corporation: ALT5 is a Nasdaq-listed company that completed a $1.5 billion financing subscription led by the WLFI team in August 2025.
Participation method: Purchase ALT5 stock.
7/8 Focus on WLFI Strategic Investments
Pay attention to the projects that the WLFI Foundation and team strategically invest in, such as the previously mentioned Falcon Finance receiving a $10 million strategic investment from WLFI, and Vaulta (formerly EOS) receiving a $6 million investment commitment from WLFI. Additionally, although the meme coin $U is not a direct investment by WLFI, WLFI's public wallet previously held 45.8% of its supply.
8/8 Other Potential Opportunities
The official website has clearly stated that upcoming features include the WLFI App (aggregated wallet and payment) and Lend & Borrow (lending platform).
The WLFI App provides a one-stop asset management service, allowing users to recharge by linking traditional banks or crypto wallets and use USD1 for payments or wealth management at any time.
Lend & Borrow is similar to lending protocols like Aave/Venus, allowing users to deposit assets like USD1 to earn interest or borrow other assets using USD1 as collateral.
Currently, both products are under development.
Risk Warning: The WLFI ecosystem is still in its early stages, and many projects carry strong speculative characteristics. The above projects are for reference only and do not constitute recommendations.
