The Ethena price has rallied by 13% today, reaching $0.9165 as the cryptocurrency market rises by 1% in the past 24 hours.
ENA – which is the governance token of the Ethena synthetic dollar protocol – is now up by 16.5% in a week, but down by roughly the same percentage in a month.
However, it’s also up by just over 70% since listing at the beginning of April, with several players in the market – including Delphi Ventures – prredicting that Ethena could become one of the biggest presences in the DeFi sector.

The coin’s 24-hour trading volume has also risen slightly today at $400 million, although this is still some way off the levels – of around $3 billion – witnessed in early April, when it listed.
What’s particularly encouraging right now is that whales appear to still be accumulating ENA, implying that it likely has more gains in store in the coming days and weeks.
In the past hour, whale 0x5ab withdrew 6.26M $ENA ($5.31M) from #Binance at ~$0.848 for the first time.
Before ENA, the whale had only accumulated $ETH and currently stakes 2,000 $ETH (now $6.26M) with Pendle Finance at an
