The companies already work together through USDtb, Ethena\u2019s stablecoin backed mainly by BUIDL, making the latest announcement an expansion of an existing relationship rather than a new partnership.<\/p>\n<p>Ethena also said it will provide a liquidity facility for BlackRock\u2019s tokenized products. The company did not disclose financial terms or a launch timeline but described the arrangement as another step in connecting tokenized assets with institutional infrastructure.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p>\n<p>The announcement follows several deals involving Ethena\u2019s stablecoin business this month. Earlier, the company selected Centrifuge as its tokenization partner and entered an <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/ethena\/status\/2064331907614314725\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">agreement<\/a> with global asset manager Janus Henderson. As part of that collaboration, Janus Henderson committed to invest in ENA, Ethena\u2019s governance token.<\/p>\n<p>Another recent milestone came after StablecoinX completed its merger with TLGY Acquisition Corp., allowing the Ethena-focused infrastructure company to begin trading on Nasdaq under the ticker USDE.<\/p>\n<p>The company said its public warrants started trading under the symbol USDEW on June 26 following the completion of the business combination a day earlier. The listing provides public-market investors with direct exposure to StablecoinX\u2019s Ethena-focused strategy even as demand for USDe remains below last year\u2019s peak.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">ENA has outperformed the broader crypto market<\/h2>\n<p>As per data from crypto.news, Ethena (ENA) price rose 12% to $0.083 shortly after the BlackRock announcement before easing to around $0.081, leaving the token about 7% higher on the day. The gain came while the wider cryptocurrency market remained under pressure, with Bitcoin trading below $60,000.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Ethena price chart \u2014 June 29 | Source: crypto.news<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Part of the positive reaction may be linked to Ethena\u2019s fee-switch mechanism. Under the project\u2019s design, a share of protocol revenue is allocated toward buying back ENA, meaning increased activity around USDe could benefit the governance token over time.<\/p>\n<p>Commenting on the announcement, StablecoinX founder Ted Chen <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/tedchenCPC\/status\/2071589159702048821\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">said<\/a> the Aladdin integration significantly increases USDe\u2019s institutional reach because insurers, pension funds and major asset managers already rely on the platform. He noted that organizations including Deutsche Bank and Citi use Aladdin to oversee portfolios.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s over $20 trillion in assets that these managers have on the Aladdin platform.
