What is Dai?
One of the key barriers to the widespread adoption of cryptocurrencies is their volatility. Bitcoin, Ethereum and other major digital currencies regularly experience substantial price fluctuations.
To counter this, stablecoins – tokens pegged to the value of an underlying asset – were introduced.
MakerDAO is the company behind Maker, a smart contracts platform designed to back and stabilise the value of the Dai stablecoin.
DAI is a collateral-backed cryptocurrency designed to have a stable value relative to the US dollar. Anyone who has Ethereum assets can leverage them to generate Dai on the Maker platform through smart contracts known as Collateralized Debt Positions, or CDPs.
