The stablecoin lending protocol Ebisu Finance announced a gradual shutdown, with the front end to be deprecated in 3 months

According to ChianCatcher news, the stablecoin credit protocol Ebisu Finance announced today that it has decided to gradually shut down the project. Users need to quickly close remaining Troves, withdraw Stability Pool deposits, and ebUSD DEX liquidity. The minting of ebUSD has been suspended, and the front end will be deprecated in 3 months on October 30.

This protocol is a fork of Liquity V2, supporting new collateral types and adjustable risk parameters. It has been running for over a year and has passed two audits. Ebisu aims to provide fixed-rate, open-term credit through ebUSD, with collateral including blue-chip yield-bearing assets such as LRTs, but the team has failed to expand ebUSD liquidity to support meaningful lending volumes.

The project explored multiple solutions, including liquidity optimization, multi-chain expansion, structured products, and acquisition opportunities, but none addressed the core bottleneck of the CDP protocol: stablecoin liquidity and sustainable demand. The team stated that there are no plans for the launch or airdrop of EBISU tokens and thanked supporters, inviting other teams to contact them for permission to use their tech stack.
