Etena (ENA) updated the current situation regarding the depegging incident of the stablecoin USDe.

On the 11th (local time), Etena said via X, "USDe experienced temporary price fluctuations due to market volatility and increased liquidations, but issuance and redemption functions continued to operate normally without interruption," and explained that "USDe is still in an overcollateralised state."

Also, "Due to liquidations, perpetual futures prices are trading below spot, and Etena holds a short in that position, so this fluctuation will translate into protocol revenue. Accordingly, USDe's collateral ratio is expected to be higher than the previous day," it said.

Etena will provide additional updates as the situation stabilizes.
