Resumo

Safe Foundation, steward of the smart account platform securing over $60 billion in assets, and Ethena Labs, the protocol behind the $6 billion+ stablecoin USDe, have announced a strategic partnership. The collaboration aims to boost institutional adoption and user experience for USDe within Safe’s multisig ecosystem. Key benefits include a 10x multiplier on Ethena Sats Points for Safe users holding USDe and gas-free Ethereum mainnet transactions for all USDe-related interactions. The partnership builds on strong institutional traction, as 85% of Ethena assets in Safe accounts are held in staked sUSDe, indicating significant use in treasury strategies by DAOs and institutions. Both entities emphasize Safe’s security and self-custody strengths as critical for Ethena’s growth in DeFi.

Zug, Switzerland – Blockman PR – JANUARY 13, 2026 Safe Foundation, steward of the industry-leading multisig-based smart account platform securing over $60 billion in digital assets, and Ethena Labs, the protocol behind the third-largest tokenized dollar, USDe (with over $6 billion in supply), today announced a strategic partnership to accelerate institutional adoption and enhance the user experience of Ethena’s USDe within Safe Smart Accounts and multisig ecosystem.

The collaboration signals a broader strategic initiative by Safe to move the stablecoin economy on self-custodial rails. Further, it immediately delivers two major benefits for users holding Ethena’s USDe within the Safe ecosystem:

  1. 10x Ethena Sats Points Boost: Safe accounts holding USDe will receive a 10x boost multiplier on their accrued points during the current Ethena points program, significantly increasing rewards for early adopters and treasury managers utilizing Safe.
  2. Gas-Free Mainnet Transactions: In a massive UX unlock for multisig users, Safe will sponsor the gas fees for all Ethereum mainnet transactions made by USDe holders, making it entirely gas-free to interact with their USDe holdings from their Safe Smart Account.

Safe smart accounts currently secure over $6 billion in stablecoin assets across Ethereum mainnet. While Safe’s permissionless infrastructure already supports USDe and sUSDe, with $65.1 million in sUSDe currently secured, this partnership formalizes both companies’ commitment to positioning Safe self-custodial wallet ecosystem as the preferred platform for accessing Ethena’s products.

Institutional Traction

The partnership is built on strong existing adoption, with data indicating Safe users view Ethena’s products as a foundational treasury solution:

As of January 2025, 85% of all Ethena assets capital secured in Safe accounts on Ethereum mainnet is held in sUSDe (the staked token). This figure confirms that Safe users—primarily DAOs, protocols, and institutional entities—are utilizing Ethena in their treasury strategies.

“The stablecoin landscape is rapidly diversifying and Ethena has pioneered a fundamentally new model while delivering resilient value, deep liquidity, and proven adoption at scale. Safe is the best way to interact with USDe and the Ethena protocol giving institutional access without compromise. Safe users increasingly seek reliable options that maintain the highest level of security and self-custody” said Andre Geest, VP of Growth at Safe Foundation.

“Safe’s unmatched track record of securing over $60 billion makes it the definitive platform for USDe’s institutional trajectory. The fact that 83% of the existing Ethena capital in Safe accounts is already staked in sUSDe clearly validates the strong, professional demand for Ethena-related products in treasury management,” said Guy Young, Founder at Ethena Labs. “This alliance will accelerate the integration of USDe into the deepest layers of the DeFi economy.”

Safe serves as critical treasury infrastructure, processing over $4 billion in monthly transfers. The platform’s commitment to supporting multiple stablecoin types ensures users can continuously optimize their treasury strategies while maintaining self-custody over their most critical assets.

Nexo launches regulated crypto-backed credit in Australia

Nexo has launched regulated crypto-backed credit lines in Australia after becoming a credit representative under national consumer credit laws. Eligible clients can borrow Australian dollars or stablecoins using their cryptocurrency as collateral without selling it. Funds are typically available within 24 hours, featuring flexible repayments with no fixed terms or origination fees. Interest rates range from 0.9% to 21.9%, varying by credit line and client loyalty tier. Clients can choose between Smart and Standard credit lines, which differ in rates, eligible assets, and collateral management during market volatility. The company cautions that such borrowing carries risks, including margin calls and potential liquidation of collateral if its value drops. This move positions Nexo among the few crypto platforms offering regulated crypto-backed credit in Australia. Nexo Australia is registered with AUSTRAC as a virtual asset service provider and is a member of the Australian Financial Complaints Authority (AFCA).

BONK Crypto Treasury Company Has Only $2.14 Million Cash Left, 70% of Revenue Comes from Founder's Own Platform

BONK Inc. (BNKK), the NASDAQ-listed company associated with the Solana meme coin BONK, reported stark financials for the first half of the year. While revenue skyrocketed 6,218% year-over-year to $5.5 million, the company posted a net loss of $7.88 million and its cash reserves plummeted to just $214,000. Its auditors issued a "going concern" warning, citing cumulative losses of $191.4 million, negative operating cash flow, and critically low liquidity. A critical detail is that $3.92 million, or 71%, of its revenue came from an "affiliate revenue share" with LetsBonk.fun, a meme coin launchpad. This platform is linked to founder Mitchell Rudy, whose entity, Lucky Dog Holdings, beneficially owns approximately 40.2% of common stock and all C Series preferred shares. These preferred shares grant the holder the right to elect half of the company's board. The company's financial structure is further intertwined with Rudy; it sold $50 million worth of stock to his entities, accepting payment in BONK tokens. Fluctuations in the value of these and other held digital assets led to an $8.17 million unrealized loss, the primary driver of the net loss. With operating cash outflows of $4.17 million for the half-year, the remaining cash covers roughly nine days of operations at the current burn rate, highlighting severe financial strain despite top-line growth.

CryptoQuant Noted a Signal of a Bitcoin Reversal

CryptoQuant has highlighted a potential reversal signal for Bitcoin, suggesting the bearish phase might be nearing its end as on-chain metrics show initial signs of spot demand recovery. Their analysis indicates that the 30-day spot demand metric has recovered from -206,000 BTC in late July to approximately -5,000, close to turning positive for the first time since February 2026. Historically, such a reversal has been followed by a median 60-day price gain of 18.1%, with a win rate of 78% (increasing to 87% when valuations are depressed). However, they caution that this is a favorable sign, not a guarantee. Analysts from Bitfinex Alpha note that two of three conditions for a sustainable Bitcoin recovery are already met: improved Federal Reserve rate expectations and relatively accommodative financial conditions, thanks to easing inflation and reduced odds of a near-term rate hike. The missing third catalyst is a capital rotation from traditional markets (like stocks and AI infrastructure) into cryptocurrencies. If this occurs, Bitcoin could reclaim $70,000. Conversely, continued negative flows might see support tested around $57,000. Current headwinds include significant weekly outflows from US spot Bitcoin ETFs (roughly $385 million) and reduced stablecoin supply. Wintermute offers a more cautious outlook, pointing to the same large ETF outflows and ongoing miner selling pressure. They note that Bitcoin has failed to rally despite the improved Fed outlook, which is typically bullish for risk assets. As an example, they cite miner Riot Platforms, which sold a substantial portion of its Bitcoin reserves in Q2 as its mining cost (~$91,000 per BTC) remains far above the current market price, forcing sales for liquidity. This combination of ETF outflows and miner selling is suppressing new demand.

Is a Strong Ruble Good? Not for the Budget: Treasury Already Short 1.5 Trillion

The Russian budget has lost about 1.5 trillion rubles in revenue since the start of 2026 due to the ruble being stronger than the government's planned exchange rate. The budget was based on an average annual rate of 92.2 rubles per US dollar, but the actual average for the first seven and a half months was just 76.9 rubles. This discrepancy creates a significant shortfall, as every ruble of appreciation against the dollar reduces annual budget revenues by 140–160 billion rubles. When accounting for oil and gas revenues, the sensitivity is even higher, with potential annual losses reaching up to 2.5 trillion rubles. So far this year, the budget has already missed out on roughly 1.7 trillion rubles. The ruble's exchange rate has shown considerable volatility in 2026, ranging from a low near 71 rubles per dollar in May to over 85 rubles by mid-August. Despite this recent weakening, the year's average remains well below the budget target, creating a structural deficit in oil and gas revenues. Forecasts suggest the final average rate for 2026 will be around 80–82 rubles, which would result in a budget shortfall of about 1.6 trillion rubles. A strong ruble reduces import costs and inflation but also cuts the ruble earnings of exporters and threatens the funding of social obligations. The gap between the planned and actual rate is attributed not only to oil price dynamics but also to the fiscal rule mechanism, which can influence the currency's direction. The Ministry of Finance recently halted foreign currency sales under this rule, removing dollar supply from the market and contributing to pressure on the exchange rate. The budget policy is now forced to adapt to a stronger ruble than originally planned.

Trade.xyz Captures Over Half of Hyperliquid's Trading Volume with AI Chip Stocks and Crude Oil Perpetual Contracts

**Title:** Trade.xyz Captures Over Half of Hyperliquid's Trading Volume with AI Chip Stocks and Oil Perpetuals **Summary:** Driven by the launch of AI chip stock and oil perpetual contracts, Trade.xyz has become the dominant builder on Hyperliquid following its HIP-3 upgrade, now accounting for over 55% of the platform's trading volume. The HIP-3 proposal shifted market creation from validator votes to a staking and auction model, allowing builders like Trade.xyz to deploy their own perpetual futures markets. Trade.xyz's focus on traditional assets like AI/Compute equities, crude oil, and major indices has attracted significant on-chain trading activity. In the past month alone, it generated approximately $5 million in fees, which are split 50/50 with Hyperliquid. A significant portion of this revenue is used for open-market buybacks of the HYPE token, reducing its circulating supply and creating a direct link between platform activity and token value capture. This growth highlights both the potential for ecosystem concentration around a single major builder and the evolving mechanisms for HYPE's value accrual.
