Buy DAI Cryptocurrency
Danish entrepreneur Rune Christensen is credited to the formation of MakerDAO – a decentralized autonomous organization – back in 2014. MakerDAO is the creator of DAI Stablecoin. On December 18, 2017, DAI and its associated smart contracts were officially launched on the main Ethereum network. The price of DAI was successfully kept close to one US dollar during its first year of existence, even though the price of Ether, the only collateral available at the time, declined by more than 80% during the same time period. In 2018, MakerDAO formed the Maker Foundation, run from Copenhagen, which is the organization facilitating the development of MakerDAO.
