Description

Who We Are:

Ethena Labs is a forefront DeFi organization focused on developing products for modern finance. Our synthetic dollar protocol, Ethena, built on Ethereum, offers a crypto-native solution for money, USDe, and a globally accessible dollar savings asset, sUSDe.

Our primary objective is to deliver globally accessible crypto-native financial solutions that bridge the gap between TradFi and the digital asset economy, based on transparency, efficiency, and enabling individuals and institutions to have greater control over their assets.

What We are Doing:

Ethena Labs is actively creating and implementing a range of groundbreaking products to tackle challenges and uncover opportunities in the digital finance landscape.

Our flagship product, USDe, is a synthetic dollar backed by digital assets with a unique delta-neutral hedging strategy to maintain its peg securely and efficiently.

Additionally, we offer sUSDe, which provides crypto-native rewards through derivatives market funding rates, presenting an attractive alternative to traditional financial system-tethered products.

Moreover, we are developing solutions to facilitate institutional adoption of digital assets. Our collaborations with Securitize and Blackrocks BUIDL fund have led to USDtb, an asset-backed stablecoin for institutional clients. Furthermore, iUSDe is tailored for traditional financial institutions, incorporating compliance features for their easy access to crypto-native rewards.

One of our key initiatives is Converge, a joint blockchain project with Securitize, aiming to create a hybrid blockchain that merges DeFi with CeFi and TradFi needs. Converge is intended to serve as a primary issuance layer for tokenized assets, seamlessly integrating with existing DeFi protocols to enable institutions to participate in the decentralized economy.

Through these endeavors, Ethena Labs is not just developing new financial products but also laying down the foundational infrastructure for a more open, efficient, and interconnected global financial system.
