StablecoinX Adds $530 Million PIPE as Ethena Launches $310 Million ENA Buyback

The coordinated treasury plan couples fresh capital with programmatic repurchases to tighten ENA’s float as USDe’s rapid growth attracts institutional investors.

Overview

  • StablecoinX’s latest raise lifts total PIPE commitments to about $895 million, with the firm projecting control of more than 3 billion ENA once transactions close.
  • An Ethena Foundation subsidiary will repurchase $310 million of ENA over six to eight weeks via market makers, deploying $5 million per day above $0.70 and $10 million per day below $0.70 or after a 24‑hour drop greater than 5%.
  • The new program, together with earlier purchases, is reported to cover roughly one‑fifth of ENA’s circulating supply, concentrating holdings and reducing available float.
  • ENA jumped more than 12% after the announcements, reflecting expectations for sustained buying and tighter liquidity.
  • Backers of the PIPE include YZi Labs, Brevan Howard, Susquehanna Crypto, IMC Trading, Dragonfly and ParaFi, as StablecoinX and TLGY advance a merger with plans to list on Nasdaq under the ticker USDE; the Ethena Foundation retains veto power over any ENA sales by StablecoinX.
