Yi Lihua views 2026 as a breakout year for on-chain financial infrastructure, with stablecoins and ETH leading the way. He explained that WLFI's swap of BTC for ETH aligns with this logic. Yi outlined USD1's potential to reach $100 billion in the short term, $1 trillion in the mid term, and capture a trillion-dollar share of the $3 trillion stablecoin market in the long term. He also highlighted USD1's ability to collaborate with Web2 companies and leverage stablecoin advantages over platforms like Visa. Yi emphasized USD1's potential to become key infrastructure in the multi-trillion-dollar on-chain market, citing strengths in brand, compliance, ToB (business services), and user base. On-chain trading signals will play a crucial role as support and resistance levels become clearer in 2026.

Odaily Planet News: Yi Lihua posted a message stating, "2026 will be the first year of financial blockchain adoption. Stablecoins and Ethereum are the most important infrastructure. Today, WLFI is converting BTC into ETH, and I believe this is based on the same line of thinking. The future of WLFI has three paths: first, USD1 will reach 10 billion in the short term, 100 billion in the medium term, and capture a trillion-dollar share in the 3-trillion-dollar stablecoin market in the long term. Second, USD1 will partner with Web2 companies that have hundreds of millions of active users. The advantages of stablecoin payments are far greater than traditional Visa, and this will bring billions of users into blockchain and stablecoins. Third, in the future tens of trillions of dollars in financial blockchain markets, USD1 will leverage its advantages in brand, compliance, B2B, and user base to become one of the most important infrastructures. This is the reason and logic behind our large position in ETH and significant investment in WLFI."
