Ether.fi, an Ethereum staking-based decentralized finance platform, has expanded the capabilities of its self-custody app, Decrypt reported. Users can trade tokenized assets, borrow against their portfolios as collateral, and use fiat accounts. The app allows users to trade stock tokens, metals and cryptocurrencies directly. It also offers an integrated market based on Aave on Optimism, the Ethereum scaling network, where users can lend assets or borrow funds against their holdings without selling them.
