Ethena Labs’ USDe is stabilized through the operation of arbitrage and yield-returning strategies, which are collateralized by crypto assets and delta-hedged. It is enacted in a decentralized finance framework but ultimately needs centralized exchanges and custodians to handle its collateral.
According to The Block, Elixir synthetic dollar deUSD is always fully collateralized by stETH and is used to short ether in a delta-neutral position. In this design, additional yields granted for liquidity provisioning could be captured by the deUSD stakers.
The team behind this project focuses on the fact that the Elixir synthetic dollar genuinely decentralizes and is a non-custodial alternative with verifiable execution and open-source code, in contrast to USDe’s reliance on centralized systems.
Elixir says that deUSD will remain stable, even in times of extreme market volatility. The project has $1 billion in liquidity lined up for the new token, with some high-profile support from DeFi platforms, including Pendle, which is building a market for Elixir’s Apothecary initiative. That’s a system designed to track user contributions and reward participation based on points.
Since its going live in March, the Apothecary program by Elixir has accrued over $300 million in total value locked, excluding the $1 billion set aside for deUSD. The project is racing toward what could be the highly anticipated mainnet launch of deUSD in September.
