Ethena’s USDe and sUSDe Go Live on Aave With $400M Supply Capacity

Quick Take
  • Ethena's USDe and sUSDe PTs are now live on Aave's Plasma with $200M supply capacity each.
  • Plasma is offering incentivized USDT borrow rates at ~4% APY to attract users.
  • This is part of a broader strategy with Binance to integrate USDe across the DeFi ecosystem.

Ethena Labs has listed its USDe and sUSDe perpetual tokens (PTs) on Aave's Plasma instance, each with a supply capacity of $200 million. This move provides users with access to leveraged yield opportunities, further embedding Ethena's stablecoins into the DeFi ecosystem.

To attract users, Plasma is offering a competitive ~4% APY borrow rate for USDT, which is significantly lower than market rates. These incentives are expected to continue in the coming months, aiming to establish Plasma as a prime venue for leveraged PT exposure. The initiative is part of a larger strategic partnership with Binance, which will see USDe integrated across its platform, reaching over 280 million users and more than $190 billion in assets.
