1. Project Introduction
Ethena is a synthetic dollar protocol built on Ethereum that provides a crypto-native solution for money, which does not rely on the traditional banking system infrastructure and offers a globally accessible dollar-denominated instrument of savings. Its primary product is the Delta-neutral synthetic dollar, USDe, which is inspired by BitMEX founder Arthur Hayes. Arthur wrote an article titled "Dust on Crust" on March 2023, outlining the idea of the potential Satoshi Nakamoto Dollar, that is, creating a stablecoin backed by an equal amount of longs in the BTC spot markets and shorts in the futures market. Ethena is a variation of this scheme that uses the synthetic dollar USDe for delta-hedging with staked Ethereum to provide the first censorship-resistant, scalable, and stable crypto-native currency solution.
