New Token ‘Identical To’ Staked Version Of USDe

新的令牌'与usde的固定版本相同

The new institutional version of USDe was teased in a January blog post by Ethena Labs founder, Guy Young — Ethena Labs is the startup behind Ethena. In that post Young explained that iUSDe would be “identical to” sUSDe (the staked version of USDe) with a few minor additions to ease regulatory compliance for institutional users:

Ethena Labs创始人Guy Young - Ethena Labs是Ethena背后的创业公司，在1月份的博客文章中取笑了新的机构版本。在那篇文章中，Young解释说，IUSDE将与Susde（USDE的固定版本）“相同），并为制度用户提供了一些较小的补充，以减轻法规合规性：

Young added that deepening ties with TradFi through iUSDe will be Ethena’s main goal for Q1 of 2025:

Young补充说，通过IUSDE与Tradfi的联系将是Ethena的主要目标2025年第1季度的主要目标：

Ethena Strengthens Its Ties To Powerful Players

埃塞纳（Ethena）加强了与强大球员的联系

In addition to now having large institutional backers, Ethena has also cultivated ties with powerful political figures, including the Trump family.

除了现在拥有庞大的机构支持者外，埃塞纳还与包括特朗普家族在内的有力政治人物建立了联系。

Ethena Labs announced in December that it had entered into a strategic partnership with the Trump family’s DeFi project, World Liberty Financial (WLFI), adding that “a governance proposal has been submitted to add sUSDe to WLFI’s upcoming Aave instance as a core collateral asset.”

Ethena Labs在12月宣布，它已经与特朗普家族的Fefi项目World Liberty Financial（WLFI）建立了战略合作伙伴关系，并补充说：“已提出一项治理提案，以将SUSDE添加到WLFI即将举行的AAVE实例中，作为核心的核心额外资产。透明

These ties to powerful figures in TradFi and politics build on what was a breakout year for Ethena in 2024 — with USDe having grown to become the third largest “USD asset in the space at $6 billion supply in 10 months”, according to Young.

Young称，这些与Tradfi和政治方面的有力数字建立在2024年Ethena的突破一年的基础上 - USD已成长为该空间中第三大的“ USD资产，10个月内的60亿美元供应”。

Young also claims Ethena was the second fastest crypto startup in history to reach US$100 million in revenue, second only to the Solana memecoin launchpad, pump.fun.

Young还声称Ethena是历史上第二快的加密初创公司，其收入达到1亿美元，仅次于Solana Memecoin Launchpad，Pump.Fun。

This growth has been largely driven by USDe’s incredibly high yields, which have at times hit as high as 60% per year. Ethena can offer these high yields because USDe differs from the leading stablecoins, USDC and Tether, in a number of important ways:

这种增长在很大程度上是由USDE令人难以置信的高收益率驱动的，有时每年达到60％。 Ethena可以提供这些高收益，因为USD与领先的Stablecoins，USDC和Tether不同，以多种重要方式：

Those of us who remember what happened in 2022 when the Terra stablecoin catastrophically depegged will be acutely aware of the potential risks of these high-yielding stablecoins should things go awry.

我们当中那些记得2022年发生的事情的人，当时Terra Stablecoin发生灾难性的人会敏锐地意识到这些高产的稳定菌的潜在风险，如果事情变得不好。
