BlockBeats news, on December 3, the largest on-chain options protocol Derive collaborated with Ethena and joined the Ethena network. This is a further expansion of the existing partnership between Ethena and Derive. Derive has introduced sUSDe as collateral into the protocol and built the first on-chain structured product for sUSDe. As part of this collaboration, the Ethena Foundation provided Derive with millions of dollars in funding.
USDe can help developers unlock new financial primitives while benefiting from Ethena's liquidity support, integrated channels, and network effects. Additionally, sENA holders will also be eligible to align with Derive DAO and receive 5% of the DRV token supply.
