They will come out offering a much higher yield than Ethena, with similar risk tolerances. Its a significantly different product than Sky in terms of goal and risk, but its an up & coming 'yieldcoin' with a team"

> **Visual Note:** A dark-themed DefiLlama dashboard displays TVL metrics for four DeFi protocols—Aave V3 (AAVE) at $13.595B, Ethena USDe (USDe) at $4.026B, Morpho Blue (MORPHO) at $7.417B, and a partially visible Pendle panel—with line charts tracking "Fees" and "Revenue" over time, visually reinforcing the post's claim that capital flows are shifting away from yield-chasing toward protocols with stronger balance sheet fundamentals.  

> 
> "capital in DeFi is no longer just chasing APY. it's selecting for balance sheet quality

in the last 30 days Aave V3 TVL grew ~9.5%, Morpho Blue ~5%

Pendle is up modestly on a monthly basis but recovered 7.4% in TVL just last week

meanwhile Ethena USDe TVL fell ~11% in the same"
