Jupiter teams up with Ethena to launch Solana stablecoin JupUSD
Key Takeaways
- Ethena and Jupiter team up to launch JupUSD, a yield-bearing stablecoin, on Solana.
- Jupiter will progressively convert around $750 million in USDC from its Liquidity Provider Pool into JupUSD after launch in Q4 2025.
Ethena, a protocol known for developing yield-bearing stablecoin mechanisms, has partnered with Jupiter, a Solana-based decentralized exchange aggregator, to launch JupUSD, a native stablecoin on Solana.
The collaboration expands decentralized finance options on Solana, which has seen similar yield-bearing stablecoin products launch recently. Solstice Finance recently launched USX, a stablecoin designed to offer permissionless access to institutional-grade delta-neutral yields.
Jupiter has been expanding beyond its core aggregator services into liquid staking tokens and institutional integrations. Its native token, JUP, underpins a 21Shares exchange-traded product (ETP) in Europe, providing institutional investors with regulated access to the Jupiter ecosystem.
