What Happened
A source involved with the deal told the publication that both parties have signed an agreement, marking the first publicly announced deal between a sovereign state and a crypto project.
WLFI and the Pakistan Crypto Council signed a Letter of Intent (LOI) in April last year to promote blockchain adoption and boost DeFi growth. The partnership targeted expanding stablecoin use for remittances and trade.
Besides, the World Liberty project saw a sharp increase in revenue for the Trump Organization in the first half of 2025. It has now filed for a US national banking charter in a move to bring its dollar-linked stablecoin deeper inside the regulatory perimeter.
