Why did sUSDe supply contract?
The article does not specify a cause, but it was part of a broader 15% drop in yield-bearing stablecoin supply, possibly due to competition from Treasury-backed tokens and shifting investor preferences.

Supply contraction alone does not indicate a depeg event. sUSDe maintains its $1 peg through Ethena's arbitrage mechanism, and the article does not mention any deviation.
