🚀 $ENA 2025: Bigger, Bolder, and Ready to Shake Up the System!

Hey, crypto fam! Let’s talk #Ethena  —the protocol that went from zero to hero in 2024 and now has its sights set on making internet money the new norm. Here’s a fun and digestible recap of what Guy Young, Ethena’s founder, just shared about their insane growth and even crazier plans for 2025.

2024 Recap: From New Kid to Power Player 👀👇

📈 Big Numbers:

▶️ $6 billion in #USDe supply within 10 months (yeah, billion).

▶️ Fastest to $5B supply in crypto history.

▶️ $1.2B annualized revenue—2nd fastest startup to $100M behind only  pump.fun.

▶️ Highest revenue per employee in the crypto space.

Fun Fact: In just weeks, $USDe flipped $USDC  balances on Bybit. TradFi and DeFi are eating this up like their favorite meme coin.

What’s Next for 2025? 🤔💪👇

1️⃣TradFi Meets DeFi

✅ Ethena is launching iUSDe, a TradFi-ready version of USDe, for hedge funds, asset managers, and other suits to jump in without touching the crypto rollercoaster.

✅ Imagine a 20% APY dollar product going head-to-head with ETFs—the TradFi big leagues are about to get spicy.

2️⃣Macro Tailwinds

✴️ Falling rates mean higher yields for Ethena’s sUSDe.

✴️ With rates dropping, the allure of crypto-native returns will attract traditional finance like moths to a flame.

3️⃣Telegram Goes Neobank: Ethena’s building a Telegram-based app for payments and savings. Think Apple Pay + sUSDe = the easiest way for 1B users to save and spend.

The Bigger Vision 👀🌤️💎: Ethena’s not stopping with just stablecoins. They’re crafting a DeFi ecosystem where:

▶️ sUSDe becomes the backbone of trading, lending, and structured products.

▶️ New platforms like Ethereal (a trading app) and Derive (options and structured products) innovate using Ethena as their core.

💡 TL;DR: #ENA crushed 2024, and they’re gearing up to dominate TradFi, DeFi, and everything in between. So buckle up—it’s gonna be a wild ride! 🚀
