Lyra Partners With Ethena Labs To Offer Users ETH Upside Exposure, Earning 2.5 Times sUSDe Returns When ETH Rises
In Brief
Lyra partnered with Ethena Labs to offer users increased exposure to ETH gains without the risk of initial capital.
Derivatives decentralized exchange (DEX) Lyra announced it has partnered with Ethena Labs, a protocol focusing on the yield-bearing USDe stablecoin to offer users increased exposure to ETH gains without the risk of initial capital. The strategy enables users to earn 2.5 times the sUSDe yield during ETH price increases and maintain the sUSDe yield when ETH prices remain stable.
This strategy involves purchasing bull call spreads using the sUSDe yield from the previous week, providing leveraged exposure to ETH based on user yields. It is particularly effective in bullish market conditions.
A bull call spread is a straightforward trading strategy comprising two elements: a long call with a strike price of K1 and a short call with a strike price of K2, where K2 is higher than K1. The maximum profit potential for a bull call spread equals the difference between the two strike prices (K2 – K1), realized if the asset price is at or above K2 upon expiration.
It provides depositors with LDX Points, increases Sats earned per day by fivefold, and includes an automated options strategy designed to potentially increase users’ sUSDe weekly earnings by 2.5 times while maintaining yield stability during sideways market conditions.
Furthermore, according to Lyra, the strategy is beneficial for sUSDe holders optimistic about ETH and seeking upside potential without exposure to downside risks. It generates higher yields in bullish market conditions and either reduced or no yields in bearish markets.
Ethena Labs focuses on the development of USDe, an Ethereum-based stablecoin collateralized by derivatives. This method aims to maintain a balanced return profile denominated in US dollars, mitigating potential losses or gains from either position. sUSDe is the staked variant of USDe.
