Two portcos working together 🤝 Congrats @ethena and @centrifuge on the partnership, and on bringing the first non-basis collateral into USDe
Jun 9
Ethena is partnering with @Centrifuge as a strategic tokenization partner, with the integration of JAAA, Janus Henderson's AAA CLO strategy, into USDe's backing. This is the first non-T-Bill RWA collateral in USDe's backing, approved by the Ethena Risk Committee following independent due diligence. Every RWA is evaluated against four strict criteria: liquidity, credit quality, drawdown profile, and pricing transparency. AAA RWA returns are driven by factors independent of crypto markets. Diversifying USDe's backing into these assets strengthens its resilience across market cycles.

Congrats @Silicon_Data on partnering with @CMEGroup to launch the first compute futures market Huge milestone for @carmenli and the Silicon Data team Proud to have backed them
Some big milestones — and some gratitude I want to say out loud. April 2024: Silicon Data was found to bring transparency and benchmarks to compute May 2025: we launched the world’s first GPU index. A real, rigorous benchmark in a market that had been operating in the dark. Today: we’re partnering with @CMEGroup to license our index for futures and options, with trading going live later this year. GPU compute is becoming a tradable asset class. Our index will sit at the center of it. But none of this is about the announcement. It’s about the people. To the @Silicon_Data team — you have poured your hearts into this. The data pipelines, the methodology — every line carries your fingerprints. The midnight engineering calls, week after week. The debates about edge cases that mattered to no one but us, because we knew they’d matter to everyone later. Rome wasn’t built in a day, and it wasn’t built by one person. It was built by people who showed up and cared about the work. That’s what we have here. I’m grateful beyond words. Kudos to every single one of you. Onward. 🫡

The next phase of market structure is exchanges that push beyond CEXs while remaining transparent and decentralized With portfolio-based risk, composable infrastructure, and more, @bulktrade is building that Q2 will be worth watching
Trading is a game of milliseconds For years crypto has tried to bring institutional volume onchain... we still haven't produced a venue to rival Wall Street's speed BULK is coming to close the gap: forbes.com/sites/truebridge/…
