Ethena Introduces Monthly Custodian Attestations for USDe

Ethena, the protocol of the stablecoin USDe, has introduced a new level of transparency. All integrated depositaries are now supplying attestation reports. These reports confirm that the assets underpinning USDe are stored in a non-exchange setting. Those measures come in institutional-grade custodial solutions. Starting with immediate effect, these reports will be posted on the Ethena governance forum on a monthly basis.

The delivery of these reports is designed to give stakeholders frequent information. It will provide the type and location of assets underpinning the protocol. This action is a reaction to an increasing need for transparency in asset-based cryptocurrencies. Ethena has pledged to build trust through these structured disclosures.
