DAI is MakerDAO's decentralized, dollar-pegged stablecoin backed by a basket of crypto and real-world-asset collateral rather than a single custodian's bank reserves. It's minted and managed on-chain through overcollateralized vaults, making it one of the earliest and most established non-custodial stablecoins in DeFi.
- Macro context: DAI is part of the tokenized money market, which represents only ~0.290% of global M2 money supply today.
