Stablecoins represent a significant segment of the cryptocurrency market due to their widespread applicability. So far, stablecoin models range from centralized, fiat-backed variants such as USDT and USDC, to more decentralized models like Maker's DAI, an over-collateralized stablecoin, and the infamous algorithmically-backed UST by Luna.

Despite this variety, the crypto industry still lacks a decentralized, internet-native stablecoin that combines attractive yet sustainable yields. Ethena aims to bridge this gap, offering a novel solution in the stablecoin space. | Today we have Guy Young, Founder of Ethena Labs, to share with us

What exactly is Ethena’ stablecoin model, and how can it be sustainable
Can Ethena dethrone USDC and USDT
The future of the stablecoin landscape
And more
