One family is negotiating the war. Another branch of the same family is profiting from the financial infrastructure surrounding it.

World Liberty Financial, the Trump family's crypto venture, has issued over $4.3 billion in USD1, a stablecoin backed by US Treasuries and dollar equivalents held by custodian BitGo. Every dollar backing USD1 earns yield on government debt. At current T-bill rates, that's potentially $170-200 million a year flowing to the venture.

The CEO of World Liberty Financial is Zach Witkoff. His father is Steve Witkoff, Trump's special envoy to the Middle East, currently leading negotiations to end the Iran war.

In January, Zach flew to Islamabad and signed a deal with Pakistan's finance minister to use USD1 for cross-border transactions. Standing behind him at the signing was General Asim Munir, Pakistan's army chief. That same general is now brokering the Iran peace talks that his father Steve is negotiating.

So one Witkoff is selling the financial infrastructure. The other is running the diplomacy. And the country buying the stablecoin is the one mediating the war.

Meanwhile, CoinDesk reported that WLF borrowed $75 million against its own illiquid WLFI token on a small lending platform, draining the pool so other depositors couldn't withdraw. Justin Sun, one of their biggest backers, publicly accused them of treating users like a "personal ATM." The token has dropped from $0.31 to $0.08.

None of this is hidden. It's all onchain and in public filings. The question is whether anyone in a position to do something about it cares enough to look.
