BUIDL deepens existing BlackRock tie-in

Ethena’s ENA token surged following the news, rising nearly 10% in the immediate aftermath of the news, with the token approaching $0.0811 as of this writing.
The bounce stands against a steep slide. ENA is down about 17% in a week and about 70% over the course of a year.
