Pakistan Taps Trump-linked Crypto Company For Stablecoin Payments... (2026)

Pakistan signed an agreement with SC Financial Technologies, which is linked to Trump-backed World Liberty Financial, to explore using its USD1 stablecoin for payments.

Pakistan has signed an exploratory agreement with a company linked to Trump-backed World Liberty Financial to assess the potential use of a dollar-pegged stablecoin for cross-border payments, a source familiar with the matter said.

The agreement involves SC Financial Technologies, a little-known firm connected to World Liberty Financial, and would examine whether the company’s USD1 stablecoin could be used within Pakistan’s emerging digital payments framework, Reuters reported on Wednesday.

The token could operate alongside Pakistan’s emerging digital currency infrastructure, potentially supporting cross-border transactions such as remittances, the source told Reuters.

Specific terms of the agreement were not disclosed, and details surrounding SC Financial Technologies remain limited.

Pakistan is expected to formally announce the deal later on Wednesday during a visit by World Liberty chief executive Zach Witkoff to Islamabad, according to the report.

World Liberty has already attracted attention for its role in major transactions. In May last year, MGX, a state-backed investment company from Abu Dhabi, used World Liberty’s stablecoin to facilitate the purchase of a $2 billion equity stake in Binance, the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange.

Earlier this week, World Liberty also launched World Liberty Markets, a new onchain lending and borrowing platform built around its USD1 stablecoin and WLFI governance token. The platform allows users to post crypto collateral such as Ether (ETH), tokenized Bitcoin (BTC) and major stablecoins.
