Abu Dhabi-based tech investment firm MGX has finalized a $2 billion investment in Binance using USD1, a dollar-backed stablecoin developed by World Liberty Financial. This marks the largest institutional investment done entirely using stablecoins.
This major investment was announced during the Token2049 conference in Dubai, where Eric Trump, son of the US President Donald Trump, also disclosed additional USD1 news. He revealed that USD1 will be integrating with the Tron blockchain, a cryptocurrency platform founded by Chinese entrepreneur Justin Sun.
The Trump family owns a 60% equity interest in the fintech company World Liberty Financial, which launched USD1 earlier this year. Designed in partnership with custody provider BitGo, USD1 is fully backed by short-term U.S. Treasury obligations and cash equivalents, promising a level of transparency and consumer protection not always linked with stablecoins.
This investment into Binance is noteworthy as it is the first of this scale by an institution into the global exchange. It signals how private capital and crypto-native platforms may be cooperating in a regulatory-conscious environment.
"We view this strategic partnership with Binance as pivotal in expanding our footprint within the MENA region and globally," said an executive from MGX.
Highlighting the importance of Binance, especially in the Emirati context, the firm's workforce in the UAE comprises over 1,000 staff out of 5,000 globally. This signifies the Emirate's emerging role as a hub for regulated digital finance.
World Liberty Financial is also quickly expanding its footprint in other geographical domains. In a move that could bring blockchain and stablecoin technologies to a broader audience, the company signed a letter of intent with the Pakistan Crypto Council.
In Islamabad, executives from the Trump-backed firm met with high-ranking Pakistani officials, including Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Army Chief General Asim Munir. These meetings signaled the potential for collaboration and cooperation between the Trump family's ventures and the Pakistani government.
