Ketju research: Elara Finance

RejectedPublished by Ketju Research

This file describes the economic claim, control, loss, and exit evidence. Client action and amount belong to the advisor. Not investment, legal, tax, or compliance advice.

Research summary

Elara takes USDC, USDT, or USDe and mints about one ELUSD per dollar; ELUSD staked becomes sELUSD, whose rate against ELUSD rises once a day as an outside manager, Arken, reports returns from market making in narrow price ranges on stablecoin pools. It held about $298,000 at the 2026-09-30 survey, below the size floor the below-materiality dossier sets, so the individual review of its contracts, keys, and exits is not opened. Its own docs would stop the file even above the floor: Elara is not available to US persons. This is a class disposition with a recorded reopen condition, not a researched rejection.

Observable review triggers

  • TVL sustained above the size floor for 30 days
  • Elara opens the product to US persons
