USDe accounts for about $12.5 billion of the stablecoin market cap of $297 billion, with Tether (USDT) and USDC (USDC) at $168 billion and $72.5 billion the top two respectively.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to OTC liquidity access, eligible institutional clients will be able to use USDe on FalconX as collateral. The feature will apply in certain credit and derivatives transactions, FalconX noted in a blog post.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cWe are excited to be working with one of the leading institutional liquidity providers in the space to broaden access to USDe for their client base. FalconX has a long history of providing innovative solutions to maximise capital efficiency for their clients and we are excited to support their platform with a unique product offering,\u201d Guy Young, founder at Ethena Labs, said in a statement.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Unlocking portable yield<\/h2>\n<p>FalconX hopes to unlock greater capital efficiency with this integration, expanding institutional access to USDe\u2019s delta-neutral basis strategy. With the U.S. dollar-denominated stablecoin, users can tap into portable yield across decentralized finance and traditional finance ecosystems.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The platform will also extend market liquidity for both the USDe stablecoin and the native Ethena token, ENA, across selected venues, including bilateral trading channels and centralized and decentralized exchanges. In crypto, users can generate yield via staking, lending, and other strategies available to DeFi participants.<\/p>\n<p>This move has the potential to bump up Ethena\u2019s DeFi ecosystem. <\/p>\n<p>Currently, the protocol boasts over $14 billion in total value locked. Key integrations for USDe that Ethena Labs has struck include a collaboration with the TON Foundation. Unveiled in May, the partnership aimed at increasing the stablecoin\u2019s adoption across Telegram.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ethena Labs is teaming up with digital asset prime brokerage FalconX to enhance institutional adoption of Ethena\u2019s synthetic dollar, USDe.
