Ethena Labs

Ethena Labs is the crypto-native protocol behind USDe, a synthetic dollar backed by spot crypto assets, onchain custody, and delta-neutral hedging positions on centralized liquidity venues, alongside the staked savings instrument sUSDe (the "Internet Bond"), the governance token ENA, and USDtb.

This profile was surfaced as a portfolio company of Ribbit Capital and enriched with the real developer surface documented at docs.ethena.fi.
