What is DAI (DAI)?

Dai is a decentralised stablecoin that aims to stay as close to one US dollar as possible. Unlike other stablecoins that are backed by a central authority, Dai is issued through smart contracts on the Ethereum blockchain and maintained by the MakerDAO protocol.

This means no single company controls Dai — instead, it’s governed by decentralised community voting. Dai maintains its price through over-collateralisation, where users lock up other crypto assets to generate DAI tokens.

Because of its transparency, decentralised control, and consistent value, Dai is widely used in DeFi, trading, and payments. It's a practical choice for people who want the benefits of a stable digital currency without relying on a centralised issuer.
