$40 Million Airdrop, Binance USD1 Incentive Refill, Can the Annualized Yield Exceed 20%?
Binance has launched a $40 million airdrop of World Liberty Financial (WLFI) tokens for USD1 holders, running from January 23 to February 20, 2026. Weekly distributions of $10 million worth of WLFI will occur each Friday, starting February 2.
To qualify, users must hold USD1 net assets in Spot, Funding, Margin, or USDⓈ-M Futures wallets (excluding Earn accounts). Using USD1 as collateral in Margin or Futures accounts grants a 1.2x reward multiplier, with no trading required. Balances are tracked via hourly snapshots, and daily minimum net balances (above 0.01 USD1) are used for calculations.
Based on an estimated USD1 circulating supply of 3.2 billion, the potential annualized yield is projected to exceed 20%. For example, holding 10,000 USD1 in Spot/Funding could yield around $12.5 weekly, while the same amount in leveraged accounts (with multiplier) could yield approximately $15 weekly. Using 5x leverage to buy USD1 may further increase returns after accounting for borrowing costs.
Note: Calculations are estimates and do not account for potential USD1 price premiums. Actual returns depend on Binance's total USD1 participation.
