Ethena, a DeFi protocol, has made significant strides in the cryptocurrency market with its governance token, $ENA, and its synthetic dollar, $USDe. Ethena's $ENA token launched trading on several major exchanges, including Binance, KuCoin, and Bitfinex, with an initial market cap of $919M and a fully diluted valuation of $9.6 billion, trading at $0.65.
