Ethena isn’t a Blockchain.
#Ethena is a financial protocol that uses derivatives to create a synthetic dollar: USDe.
Its pitch is simple and aggressive:
“We don’t depend on banks. We don’t depend on fiat reserves. We depend on the market.”
🔹 How USDe works Ethena takes assets like $ETH or $BTC and opens equivalent short positions in perpetual futures.
This creates delta-neutral exposure. The funding rate generates yield.
The result: a synthetic dollar without banks.
