Ethena Labs
Ethena Labs announced via a post that the entire airdrop allocation had been distributed by 7:17 am UTC on April 2nd.
In the 24 hours leading up to 11:30 am, the Ethena token experienced a decline of over 15%, trading at $0.5824. As per CoinMarketCap data, ENA currently ranks as the 110th-largest cryptocurrency, boasting a market capitalization of $836 million.
Ethena Labs made waves on Feb. 19 with the launch of its USDe synthetic dollar on the public mainnet. By March 8, it had become the highest-earning decentralized application (DApp) in the crypto space, offering investors an annual percentage yield (APY) of 67%.
Presently, Ethena’s USDe stands out with a 35.4% yield, attracting over 123,000 users and boasting a total value locked (TVL) of $1.6 billion, according to data from Ethena Labs’ homepage.
Over the past week, the market capitalization of USDe witnessed a 1.9% increase, and in the past month, it surged by 135% to reach $1.58 billion, as per DefiLlama data.
Last week, the Ethena token was listed for farming on the Binance launch pool.
Concerns arose when a counterfeit ENA token was exploited for $290,000 worth of BNB on March 29. On-chain security firm PeckShield initially mistook the fake token for the authentic ENA coin. However, the genuine Ethena token remained unaffected by the exploit.
