About

Ethena issues the synthetic dollar USDe through a delta-neutral strategy, with yield driven mainly by funding rates — a rate-sensitive product worth understanding before use.

USDe yield comes from funding rates and staked assets — when rates flip, yield can shrink or turn negative. Understand the income mechanics before treating it as a long-term holding.

FAQ

How does USDe keep its peg?
Through a delta-neutral strategy hedging the collateral — it's a synthetic dollar, not a fiat-reserve stablecoin, and the mechanism depends on funding-rate environments.
What are the risks of holding USDe?
Funding-rate flips in extreme markets, exchange counterparty exposure and redemption pressure — different risk points from fiat-backed stablecoins.
