Overview
- Co-founder Zak Folkman told Korea Blockchain Week attendees that a debit card connecting USD1 to Apple Pay and a retail app will launch very soon.
- The forthcoming app is described as a blend of peer-to-peer payments and trading features, framing the product as a “Venmo meets Robinhood” experience.
- Bithumb said it signed a memorandum of understanding with World Liberty Financial to explore business opportunities in Korea, though specific plans were not disclosed.
- Folkman reiterated that the company will not build its own blockchain and will remain chain-agnostic across technologies and distribution platforms.
- WLFI has fallen roughly a third since launch and recently traded near $0.20–$0.21, reflecting continued price volatility as the consumer rollout approaches.
