$ETHFI rose 15.4% to US$0.4316 on August 13, becoming the most prominent asset on the day, while the overall cryptocurrency market was basically flat. This trend is driven by a major product update to Ether.fi, which relaunched its digital banking application and significantly expanded its feature set.
EtherFi Summer Launch: New Tokenized Assets and DeFi Loans
Ether.fi, which claims to be the first and largest unmanaged crypto digital bank, has announced the launch of its next-generation product as part of ether.fi's summer launch. The new app allows users to trade tokenized stocks, precious metals and crypto-assets while remaining self-custodial, and integrates the Optimism-based Aave Market, allowing users to borrow money at the current DeFi rate of about 4%, without selling positions.
The new fiat account also supports global deposits and withdrawals.
Ether.fi was originally known for its re-pledge platform on Ethereum, but has since shifted its business focus to building crypto-native digital banking products that integrate revenue, self-custody and on-chain financial services. This re-release positions the agreement as a direct alternative to traditional retail banks rather than niche crypto products.
