I like @ethena' delta-neutral approach. It requires much less collateral and it's much more scalable.
What scales relatively well with capital in DeFi? 1. Staking 2. Looping stETH on @AaveAave 3. Restaking (time will tell but most likely) 4. GLP by @GMX_IO 5. RWA treasury yields 6. Delta neutral stablecoins ONLY if hedged via perps on CEXes like @ethena (time will tell but that’s my guess) Everything else is mostly meh If you have more ideas lemme know

1/ The term "bankless" encapsulates the idea of living without the need for traditional banks. For many, this is not about completely abandoning banks, but rather reevaluating the role of centralized financial institutions in their lives.

7/USDe's stability is achieved through delta-neutral hedging, effectively minimizing price fluctuations. This approach safeguards USDe's reliability as a crypto-native asset during market volatility, all while upholding decentralization.

8/USDe is also a yield-bearing asset. It captures yield from stETH and basis arbitrage to provide users with passive income. This is an extra yield, users can obtain further yield by staking USDe.

The "stablecoin trilemma" is a concept that highlights the challenge of creating a stablecoin without sacrificing any of the three essential attributes. These three attributes are scalability, decentralization, and stability. 🧵/1

USDe is designed to be a crypto-native asset, reducing the reliance on traditional banking systems and centralized entities. Users can trust that USDe is not subject to central control, making it resistant to censorship and seizure. 🧵/9

USDe has an efficient collateralization model depending on delta-neutral hedging. This method allows USDe to maintain its price stability while minimizing the amount of collateral required. As a result, USDe can efficiently grow with the demand of the market. 🧵/10
