Ethena's USDe Launches on Plasma with $28M TVL Pool
**Ethena's USDe stablecoin** has integrated with Plasma's infrastructure through a new USDe/USDT liquidity pool that reached **$28M TVL**. The pool combines three key technologies: - **Stable pool tech** for efficient stablecoin swaps - **Aave boosting** that deploys 100% of liquidity to lending markets - **StableSurge** dynamic fee adjustment **USDe is a synthetic dollar** backed by crypto collateral with delta-hedging strategies, eliminating traditional banking dependencies. This crypto-native architecture aligns with Plasma's decentralized stablecoin vision. **How it works:** - Liquidity providers earn both swap fees and Aave lending yields simultaneously - StableSurge automatically adjusts fees based on pool balance - Fees increase on trades that destabilize the pool, decrease for balanced flow The integration showcases how specialized stablecoin infrastructure can achieve maximum capital efficiency on purpose-built chains.
