The supply of USDe has seen explosive growth, with over $700 million added in just the last three weeks—surpassing the total supply of PayPal’s PYUSD and BUIDL.
Analysts expect the new Aave integration to act as a substantial supply sink, potentially absorbing billions in USDe over the next month. Additionally, two centralized exchange (CEX) collateral listings are expected to be announced within the next week, further boosting USDe’s adoption.
