In an effort to improve the transparency of the Ethena protocol’s backing assets beyond our current collateral and exchange breakdown provided on the dashboards, we are excited to share our thirteenth attestation reports from all integrated custodians, verifying the assets backing USDe reside off-exchange within institutional custodial solutions.
Attestation reports will be released on a monthly basis to provide regular updates as to the amount and location of the assets backing the protocol.
The aim of these reports is to prove an independent third party assessment that all assets backing USDe sit off-exchange within institutional grade custodial solutions. It is expected that these attestations become more robust going forward, utilizing additional external parties to verify the data presented and presenting additional detail.
As of 23:59 UTC April 26th 2025, USDe supply was 4.765bn as per the Etherscan link below:
$0.663bn has been verified to be held within solutions offered by Copper as of 23:59 UTC April 26th 2025, including unrealized P&L.
