Move over, USDT—there's a new contender gunning for the stablecoin crown. Ethena's USDe just rocketed past legacy players to become the third-largest stablecoin by market cap. No VC fairy dust or 'partnership' hype—just raw, yield-chasing demand.
How'd they pull it off? Synthetic dollars meeting crypto's insatiable appetite for delta-neutral yields. Traders aren't just parking cash—they're weaponizing it.
But let's not throw confetti yet. Remember when algorithmic stablecoins were 'too big to fail'? *cough* Terra *cough*. Still, watching DeFi natives outflank Wall Street's pet projects never gets old.
