Dai (or DAI) Past Price Analysis:

During Dai's first year of existence, it was successfully kept close to one US dollar, even though the price of Ether – the only collateral available at the time, decreased by around 80% during the same period. In September 2018, Venture capital company Andreessen Horowitz invested $15 million in MakerDAO by purchasing 6% of all MKR tokens. In 2018, MakerDAO developed the Maker Foundation, run from Copenhagen, which aims to help bootstrap the ecosystem by, for instance, writing code needed for the platform to function and adapt.

In 2019, MakerDAO faced an internal conflict over whether it should integrate more with the traditional financial system. Christensen wanted greater regulatory compliance to allow for assets besides cryptocurrency to serve as collateral for Dai. This was seen as one of the key factors behind the departure of Maker DAO. Afterward, in March 2020,

Dai faced a deflationary deleveraging spiral that, at its peak, caused it to trade for up to USD 1.11 before returning to its intended $1.00 valuation. However, the reason could be attributed to the extraordinary market volatility amid the spread of the deadly COVID-19 virus.

DAI Introduction:

Dai (or DAI) is a stable cryptocurrency coin that seeks to maintain an exact ratio of one-to-one with the US dollar (buck) through an automated system of smart contracts on the Ethereum blockchain. DAI is the world’s first stable cryptocurrency coin that launched on Ethereum. MakerDAO controls and regulates it. It is worth mentioning that MakerDAO, a non-profit foundation, focuses on bringing stability to the cryptocurrency economy.

The first development of DAI was begun in 2015 by Rune Christensen. Before joining crypto, Christensen established a business that recruited Westerners to teach English in China. After discovering Bitcoin in 2011, he ultimately sold his business to invest in the asset. However, when Mt. Gox (bitcoin exchange company) collapsed in 2014, Christensen turned to the idea of stablecoins. This is how MakerDAO arrived.

In 2017 DAI coin was officially launched as a product of MakerDAO, with its smart contracts, on the Ethereum blockchain. It should be noted that no central organization controls DAI, unlike other asset-backed cryptocurrencies. Such is the case with Tether (USDT), which Tether Holdings runs. Instead, users submit ETH or ERC-20 tokens into a smart contract that uses these assets as collateral.

There is neither a financial entity behind DAI nor a central organization that controls its value. DAI is one of the best decentralized stablecoins and the best option for traders apart from USDT. The value of DAI is only determined by the market. As we all know, Ether backs DAI, but it does not mean that when ETH faces price drops, DAI loses its traction.

DAI is used as a system of lending and borrowing crypto assets without the need for a broker. Users who deposit Ethereum (or other cryptocurrencies) can borrow against the value of their deposits and get freshly created Dai coins. In simple words, depositing $150 worth of Ether allows one to borrow up to 100 Dai (roughly equivalent to $100). If the security price drops below this ratio, the loan can be automatically converted by smart contracts. Conversely, if its value rises, additional Dai can be borrowed.

Advantages of DAI Stablecoin:

1. No Account Minimum
2. Stable Value
3. Decentralized Freedom
4. Income Generation
5. Fast and Cheap
6. Always On
7. Highly secure
