Ethena Labs has announced a significant partnership with TON, integrating its USDe stablecoin directly into Telegram’s ecosystem. This move is set to transform user interactions with digital assets within the messaging platform. The integration is expected to significantly boost access to decentralized finance (DeFi) products for Telegram’s vast global user base. The collaboration at the Token2049 conference in Dubai, promises to bring USDe and sUSDe to Telegram’s millions of users, expanding their exposure to financial services within a familiar environment. 10% additional yield is provided to tsUSDe holders through non-custodial wallets, incentivizing adoption. This aligns with the success seen with similar integrations like WeChat in Asia, suggesting a strong return profile for USDe and sUSDe.
