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.
Texas sheriffs used power tools this week in retrieving $32,000 from a Bitcoin ATM after a Jasper County family said they were scammed out of funds, according to local law enforcement. The family said it had lost $25,000 to the fraudsters. An image shared by the Jasper County Sheriff’s Office on Facebook shows sparks flying as an official uses what appears to be a circular saw to crack into a Bitcoin Depot kiosk. Other images show stacks of hundred dollar bills, evidence bags, and a gas station...
The price of Bitcoin was little changed on Friday as U.S. Federal Reserve Governor Christopher Waller argued that the U.S. central bank could start lowering interest rates as early as July. Bitcoin was recently changing hands at $104,300, flat over the past day and down 0.6% since Israel and Iran began exchanging missile attacks a week ago, according to crypto data provider CoinGecko. Ethereum was flat over the past 24 hours to trade just around $2,500, while Solana ticked up slightly. With infl...
USDC issuer Circle was buoyant in pre-market trading Friday, climbing above $236 ahead of the opening bell. That put it ahead of the $235 price target set by Wall Street research firm Seaport Global, which initiated coverage of the company today with a buy rating. But once the bell rang, the company's stock, which trades on the NYSE under the CRCL ticker, settled and is currently changing hands around $228, or 14% higher than its previous close. Seaport announced that it was initiating coverage...
