Ethena partners with FalconX for institutional adoption of USDe

2 min read

Ethena Labs is teaming up with digital asset prime brokerage FalconX to enhance institutional adoption of Ethena’s synthetic dollar, USDe.

Summary
  • Ethena Labs and FalconX are partnering to promote USDe adoption for institutions.
  • FalconX has added support for the dollar-denominated stablecoin across spot trading, derivatives and custody.

FalconX announced on Sept. 4 that it had added spot trading, derivatives and custody support for USDe (USDe), the U.S. dollar denominated stablecoin by Ethena (ENA). 

The integration means institutional clients can now tap into FalconX for over-the-counter liquidity for USDe, a stablecoin that currently ranks as the third-largest by supply. USDe accounts for about $12.5 billion of the stablecoin market cap of $297 billion, with Tether (USDT) and USDC (USDC) at $168 billion and $72.5 billion the top two respectively.

In addition to OTC liquidity access, eligible institutional clients will be able to use USDe on FalconX as collateral. The feature will apply in certain credit and derivatives transactions, FalconX noted in a blog post.

Unlocking portable yield

FalconX hopes to unlock greater capital efficiency with this integration, expanding institutional access to USDe’s delta-neutral basis strategy. With the U.S. dollar-denominated stablecoin, users can tap into portable yield across decentralized finance and traditional finance ecosystems. 

The platform will also extend market liquidity for both the USDe stablecoin and the native Ethena token, ENA, across selected venues, including bilateral trading channels and centralized and decentralized exchanges. In crypto, users can generate yield via staking, lending, and other strategies available to DeFi participants.

This move has the potential to bump up Ethena’s DeFi ecosystem.

Currently, the protocol boasts over $14 billion in total value locked. Key integrations for USDe that Ethena Labs has struck include a collaboration with the TON Foundation. Unveiled in May, the partnership aimed at increasing the stablecoin’s adoption across Telegram.

DeFi Platform Operating on BNB Chain Attacked by Hackers! How Much Lost? Here Are the Details

The post DeFi Platform Operating on BNB Chain Attacked by Hackers! How Much Lost? Here Are the Details appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. New Gold Protocol (NGP), a decentralized finance (DeFi) platform operating on BNB Chain, was hit with a $2 million attack on Wednesday. The attack targeted the protocol’s liquidity pool, resulting in significant losses. NGP Protocol on BNB Chain Loses $2 Million Web3 security firm Blockaid explained that the attack was based on price oracle manipulation. The attacker targeted the getPrice function in the NGP smart contract. This function calculates the token price by directly referencing Uniswap V2 pool reserves. However, according to Blockaid, “the instant price from a single DEX pool is not secure because attackers can easily manipulate reserves with a flash loan.” The attacker executed a large swap using a flash loan for a large amount of tokens. This increased the pool’s USDT reserves, decreased the NGP reserves, and caused the price oracle to report an artificially low value. This manipulation allowed the contract’s transaction limit to be exceeded, allowing the attacker to acquire a large amount of NGP tokens at a low price. On-chain security firm PeckShield reported that the stolen funds were transferred through Tornado Cash. The NGP token price also plummeted by 88% following the attack. This incident is the latest in a series of attacks targeting DeFi protocols. Last week, the Sui-based Nemo Protocol suffered a similar $2.6 million loss. According to Chainalysis data, more than $2 billion was stolen from crypto services in the first half of 2025 alone. This figure is higher than the same period in previous years, indicating increasing security risks in the sector. *This is not investment advice.
