According to @ai_9684xtpa, a macro headline triggered roughly USD 20B in forced liquidations and about 1.6M trader liquidations, marking one of the most violent flash crashes in crypto while the Nasdaq dropped 3.5% the same day, the largest daily fall since April, yet crypto’s drawdowns were sharper (source: @ai_9684xtpa). According to @ai_9684xtpa, the drawdown was amplified by three structural drivers: liquidity scarcity versus equities (crypto market cap about USD 3.83T vs USD 67T for US stocks) causing market makers to prioritize BTC and ETH liquidity and pull support from small-cap altcoins, leading to many declines near 90% (source: @ai_9684xtpa). According to @ai_9684xtpa, high leverage across perps, borrowing, and arbitrage created a cascading deleveraging, exemplified by USDE, BNSOL, and WBETH holding near fair value at the initial bottom but collapsing later as chained liquidations spread (source: @ai_9684xtpa). According to @ai_9684xtpa, the largely unregulated structure removes continuous-quote obligations for market makers, limits recourse against manipulation, and lacks mature risk mechanisms, further worsening crash dynamics (source: @ai_9684xtpa). Trading takeaways include favoring BTC/ETH over long-tail alts during stress, reducing leverage in altcoin perps, and closely monitoring collateral tokens like USDE, BNSOL, and WBETH for depeg and collateral haircut risk as market makers retreat and liquidity thins (source: @ai_9684xtpa).

According to @AveryChing, Aptos achieves sub-100 ms block times and moves USDT, USDC, and USDe for less than one-hundredth of a cent with instant settlement (source: @AveryChing on X, Sep 21, 2025). He further stated that Aptos is more scalable than all payment networks combined, positioning the network for high-throughput payments and trading settlement (source: @AveryChing on X, Sep 21, 2025). For traders, these stated metrics indicate near-zero fee stablecoin transfers and sub-second confirmations on Aptos (APT), relevant to on-chain market making, arbitrage routing, and payment rails on the network (source: @AveryChing on X, Sep 21, 2025).

According to @secondswap_io, USDe’s market cap has reached $12B and is described as the fastest digital dollar to achieve that scale, indicating rapid adoption velocity for Ethena Labs’ stablecoin product; source: @secondswap_io. Cumulative interest revenue tied to the product is reported at over $500M, highlighting sizable yield flows within the ecosystem; source: @secondswap_io. Rewards distributed in the last 30 days exceed $30M, signaling sustained incentive emissions relevant for yield strategies; source: @secondswap_io. TVL connected to USDe on Pendle is reported at over $7B with 70% dominance, underscoring market share concentration and liquidity depth on that venue; source: @secondswap_io.

According to Cas Abbé, Ethena Labs’ USDe reached 10 billion in circulating supply in roughly 500 days, which he describes as the fastest stablecoin to hit that milestone, source: Cas Abbé on X, Aug 10, 2025. He attributes the acceleration to approval of the GENIUS Act, which he says prohibits issuers from paying yields on stablecoins, source: Cas Abbé on X, Aug 10, 2025. For traders, expansion of USDe typically requires larger delta-hedged short exposure on BTC and ETH perpetual futures to back the asset, which can dampen funding rates and impact basis trades, source: Ethena Labs documentation.

According to @MilkRoadDaily, ENA rose 13% today, fueled by robust on-chain fundamentals. The supply of USDe has increased by $3.1 billion within just two weeks, signaling significant demand growth. Additionally, Ethena’s total value locked (TVL) has reached an all-time high, reinforcing market confidence. These metrics indicate strong momentum for ENA, suggesting continued trading interest based on real asset growth and positive market sentiment (source: @MilkRoadDaily).

According to @CoinbaseIntExch, Ethena Labs has been named a day one launch partner for the platform. This partnership implies that Ethena's products, such as its ENA token, will be integrated and potentially available for trading from the start of a new service on Coinbase International Exchange. For traders, this early integration on a major exchange could significantly enhance ENA's liquidity, visibility, and market access, potentially creating notable trading opportunities upon launch.

According to Miles Deutscher, USDe's circulating supply increase is directly scaling the protocol's revenue. The launch of USDe's own blockchain in collaboration with Securitize is a strategic move to support its expansion. These developments are crucial for traders focusing on the stablecoin market as they could impact USDe's trading volume and market cap.

According to @milesdeutscher, Ethena's stablecoin, USDe, holds 2.3% of the total stablecoin market. The revenue model involves a unique strategy of backing USDe with delta-hedged positions on staked Ethereum (such as stETH) and short perpetual futures, providing stability and potential profit avenues for traders.

According to Ai 姨, ENA and Bybit have a deep collaborative relationship where 21% of USDe executes a Delta neutral hedging strategy on Bybit. Following a hack on Bybit, ENA's price temporarily fell by 11%, and USDe experienced a slight discount. However, after Bybit's commitment to compensation and assurance from ENA that all spot assets supporting USDe are held in custody outside of the exchange, the price has gradually recovered from a low of $0.4078 to the current price of $0.453.

According to Ai 姨 (@ai_9684xtpa), Ethena has announced that all spot assets supporting USDe are held in custody solutions outside of exchanges, with no funds stored on any exchange, including Bybit. This indicates a secure approach to asset management.

According to Ai 姨 (@ai_9684xtpa), USDe experienced a temporary discount, dropping to a low of $0.9933 but has since rebounded to $0.9975. The discount of 0.25% is within a manageable range, and with Bybit's promise of compensation, it is unlikely to pose significant issues.

According to Ai 姨, Ethena has 21% of its USDe engaged in a Delta neutral hedging strategy on Bybit, with the ETH portion valued at $227 million. Following Bybit's confirmation of a breach, ENA has fallen by 11.5%, erasing today's gains.

According to Ai 姨, a wallet that previously made a profit of $1.27 million by buying ETH during a price drop has recently transferred $6.94 million worth of ENA to Binance, suggesting a potential sell-off. This wallet had earlier staked 41.95 million USDe with Ethena, receiving an airdrop of 4.35 million ENA valued at $7 million during Season 1. The wallet is still unlocking rewards weekly due to its top 2000 ranking in Season 2.

According to @ai_9684xtpa, an article explains that if a user's USDe balance falls below the minimum required balance, their locked ENA will be proportionally reduced. For example, if a user's USDe balance is 10% lower than the minimum required balance, they will lose 10% of their locked ENA.

According to @ai_9684xtpa, Ethena has updated the details for their Phase 2 airdrop. Key changes include: 1) The previous rule requiring 50% of ENA tokens to be re-staked has been removed, allowing all airdropped tokens to be withdrawn. 2) The USDe balance must be at least equal to the 30-day average balance as of the 09.01 snapshot; otherwise, the airdrop amount will be proportionally reduced. 3) The top 2000 recipients still need to lock up 50% of their airdropped tokens, which will be linearly unlocked over six months.

According to @OnchainDataNerd, a wallet belonging to Amber Group claimed 3.125 million ENA tokens (~$1.29 million) 9 hours ago. Currently, this wallet holds 21.875 million ENA tokens (~$8.82 million) and 19.94 million USDE tokens.
