Decentralized finance (DeFi) protocol MakerDAO has officially rebranded to Sky, ahead of launching its new stablecoin USDS in September.
MakerDAO is one of the crypto world’s largest and oldest DeFi projects, and its DAO chain runs on Ethereum.
Sky is here.

Sky’s USDS stablecoin will launch on September 18. USDS is intended to act as a successor to the project’s flagship stablecoin DAI, which is currently the world’s third-largest stablecoin with a market capitalization of roughly $81 billion.
Another new coin, known as SKY, serves as the "upgraded version" of MKR, MakerDAO’s treasury coin.
USDS and SKY will not replace the project’s current cryptocurrencies, and DAI and MKR will remain in circulation.
MakerDAO’s users will be able to voluntarily exchange their cryptocurrencies for USDS and SKY.
Each MKR token will be convertible to 24,000 SKY tokens, while each DAI token will convert to one USDS.
The rebranding project has been termed “Endgame” by MakerDAO founder Rune Christensen, who has said it will lead to increased accessibility for users once complete.
The rebrand, which was first announced by the project’s founder in March 2024, will also include a new website and app.
The website is currently live, though many users in countries across the world have reported difficulties accessing the site as of the time of writing.
The Endgame revamp will not see the DeFi project depart from the Ethereum blockchain which the project has used since its inception.
MakerDao’s founder had teased the idea of creating a chain based on competitor blockchain Solana—leading to a sell-off of MKT tokens from Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin, which totalled over $500,000 at the prices of the time.
However, Sky has not recently announced any plans to build on Solana.
NewChain, a stand-alone L1 blockchain “that will host the core tokenomics and governance mechanics of Maker Core and the SubDAOs”, has been dubbed the final stage of Endgame.
Other upcoming changes are slated for the Endgame revamp. Maker SubDAOs, independent protocol units which operate within MakerDAO, will be renamed “Sky Stars”.
Maker SubDAOs include Spark Protocol, which reached over $1 billion in TVL in March, according to DeFiLlama.
MKR is up 1.4% in the past 24 hours following the announcement, per data from CoinGecko.
Spot Ethereum exchange-traded funds are generating outsized inflows in the U.S. as the asset’s price surges toward all-time highs, offsetting years of ETH issuance. So far this month, spot Ethereum ETFs have attracted $2.3 billion—the equivalent of 500,000 ETH—while the network has issued 450,000 ETH since the so-called merge occurred in September 2022, according to crypto data providers CoinGlass and Ultrasound Money. The "merge" was a major network upgrade that ended Ethereum's energy-intensiv...
Standard Chartered has raised its Ethereum price target to $25,000 by 2028, a major shift from March forecasts that predicted a structural decline for the world's second-largest crypto. The UK banking giant made a massive revision on its Ethereum outlook, now projecting $7,500 by the end of 2025, $12,000 in 2026, $18,000 in 2027, and $25,000 in both 2028 and 2029, up from its earlier $4,000 target for 2025. "We raise our price forecasts, as the backdrop for ETH has improved dramatically in recen...
A supposedly banned Coinbase ad is appearing on YouTube videos belonging to Channel 4, one of Britain's biggest broadcasters, sources familiar with the matter told Decrypt. The cryptocurrency exchange released its “Everything Is Fine” ad last month—a big-budget, two-minute commercial that depicts the U.K. as bleak, rat infested and dirty, with prices in supermarkets spiraling out of control. Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong claimed the advert was "banned" by British TV networks, and argued this amou...
