ENA Token Lock-Up Waived
Effective October 5, 2026, all lock-up, vesting, and unlocking restrictions on StableCoinX's ENA token holdings have been permanently waived by the Ethena Parties. This removes a 48-month contractual lock-up from prior token purchase agreements.
-
Pathway to Liquidity
The company can now sell its ENA tokens to fund working capital and strategic requirements, including investments, acquisitions, share repurchases, and new product development.
-
Foundation Oversight
Sales require a 5-business-day notice to the Ethena Foundation, which has a right of first refusal to acquire the tokens at the proposed price. Foundation consent is still required but "shall not be unreasonably withheld."

Addresses Financial Vulnerability
This move directly addresses the illiquidity of ENA tokens, which contributed to a $36.2 million impairment and "going concern" disclosure in the company's Q2 2026 financial reports.
Analysis · USDE · Crypto Assets
StableCoinX, which recently disclosed "going concern" language and a significant Q2 loss partly due to an impairment on its ENA token holdings, has secured a critical agreement to unlock these tokens. This waiver removes a 48-month lock-up, allowing the company to sell its ENA tokens to fund working capital and strategic requirements. This provides a much-needed pathway to liquidity and operational flexibility, directly addressing a key financial vulnerability previously highlighted in its Q2 earnings and 10-Q filing.
