Ether.fi, the Ethereum-based decentralised finance platform best known for liquid staking, has announced a significant expansion into crypto banking, adding tokenized asset trading, portfolio-backed loans, and global fiat accounts to its self-custodial app.

The platform said users can now trade tokenized stocks, metals, and crypto assets directly within the app. A built-in lending market powered by Aave, deployed on Optimism, an Ethereum layer-2 network, allows users to lend assets or borrow against their portfolios without liquidating positions.
