Maker (MKR) is the governance token of the MakerDAO and Maker Protocol, which are both decentralized organizations and software platforms based on the Ethereum blockchain. Maker allows users to create and control the DAI stable coin.
Maker was founded in 2015 by Rune Christensen, an entrepreneur from Denmark, and officially debuted in December 2017. Maker is a project tasked with running DAI, a community-managed decentralized cryptocurrency with a stable value soft-pegged to the US dollar.
MKR tokens act as a kind of voting share for the organization that manages DAI; while they do not pay dividends to their holders, they do give the holders voting rights over the development of Maker Protocol and are expected to appreciate in accordance with the success of DAI itself.
