Talk of the Town:

USDe has been integrated across Bybit, expanding its utility beyond the existing USDe/USDT spot pair. This integration includes the use of USDe as collateral for trading perpetual futures, enabling users to potentially earn a yield from Bybit while trading major cryptocurrencies like BTC, ETH, SOL, and ENA. Additionally, Bybit has introduced zero-fee trading pairs for BTC and ETH with USDe and launched USDe on the Bybit "Earn" platform. This allows Bybit users to gain capital efficiency by earning yields on their collateral and receiving 20x sats per USDe. The integration aims to position USDe favorably against other USD-pegged stablecoins by providing value accrual to holders, which is a first in the crypto industry, potentially reshaping trading dynamics.

Airdrop to Watch:

Mode, a Layer 2 network built on Optimism's OP Stack, launched its native MODE token with an initial airdrop to early adopters, distributing 500 million tokens, or 5.5% of its total supply of 10 billion. Despite the network's strong start with a $73 million market cap, the MODE token price fell by 60% soon after its release. The network also plans to distribute 1,000,000 OP tokens worth $2.7 million through various campaigns. Mode Network, now termed the Superchain DeFi Hub, has grown significantly, with total value locked (TVL) increasing from $6,000 at the start of the year to $448 million, and over 450,000 active wallets.
