About
Dai (DAI)

DAI (DAI) stands as a pioneering decentralized stablecoin soft-pegged to the US Dollar, operating on the Ethereum blockchain as an ERC-20 token. Its primary purpose is to provide a censorship-resistant and transparent digital asset that maintains a stable value, offering a crucial building block for the decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystem. Governed by the MakerDAO community through the MKR governance token, DAI's stability is achieved through a sophisticated system of over-collateralization. Users generate DAI by locking up approved crypto assets, such as ETH or WBTC, into smart contracts known as Maker Vaults (formerly Collateralized Debt Positions or CDPs). This process ensures that every DAI in circulation is backed by a greater value of collateral, mitigating volatility risks.

The core technology relies on Ethereum's smart contract capabilities to manage these Vaults, automate liquidations if collateral value drops below a certain threshold, and maintain the peg through various stability mechanisms, including Stability Fees and the Dai Savings Rate (DSR). The DSR allows DAI holders to earn yield on their holdings directly on-chain. DAI's utility token function is primarily as a stable medium of exchange, a unit of account, and a store of value within countless DeFi applications, including lending protocols, decentralized exchanges, and yield farming strategies. As one of the most widely integrated crypto-backed stablecoins, DAI is a foundational element of Web3 infrastructure, enabling peer-to-peer transactions and complex financial instruments without reliance on traditional intermediaries.

Frequently asked questions

  • What is the HUF/DAI trading pair and why is it a key fiat on-ramp to DeFi?

    The HUF/DAI pair represents the direct exchange rate between the Hungarian Forint (HUF) and Dai (DAI), a decentralized stablecoin. It serves as a crucial fiat on-ramp, allowing users to convert their national currency directly into a stable, USD-pegged digital asset. Because DAI is an ERC-20 token native to the Ethereum blockchain, acquiring it with HUF provides immediate access to the entire decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystem, including lending, borrowing, and yield farming, without initial exposure to volatile cryptocurrencies.
  • What are the common methods to buy DAI with Hungarian Forint (HUF)?

    To purchase the DAI stablecoin with HUF, you typically use a cryptocurrency exchange that supports HUF deposits. The process involves completing KYC/AML compliance checks, then funding your account via a Hungarian bank transfer or a credit/debit card purchase in HUF. Once your account is funded, you can place an order on the HUF/DAI order book or use an instant buy feature. The purchased DAI, an ERC-20 token, can then be withdrawn to a secure, personal digital wallet.
  • How does the Maker Protocol ensure DAI's stability when purchased with HUF?

    Regardless of the fiat currency used, like HUF, DAI's stability is maintained by the Maker Protocol on the Ethereum blockchain. DAI is a decentralized stablecoin generated when users lock up crypto assets (like ETH) as collateral in smart contracts called Maker Vaults. The system is over-collateralized, meaning the value of the locked assets significantly exceeds the value of the DAI issued. This mechanism, governed by MKR token holders, ensures DAI maintains its soft peg to the US dollar, providing a stable digital asset for HUF converters.
  • What are the typical fees when converting HUF to DAI on a cryptocurrency exchange?

    When trading HUF for DAI, you should consider several potential fees. First, a deposit fee might apply when funding your account with HUF via bank transfer. Second, the cryptocurrency exchange will charge a trading fee, often a percentage of the transaction value, which can differ for market makers and takers. Finally, when you withdraw your DAI to an external digital wallet, you will incur a network fee (gas fee) for the ERC-20 token transaction on the Ethereum blockchain.
  • After buying DAI with HUF, how should I securely store this ERC-20 token?

    For optimal security, you should transfer your DAI from the cryptocurrency exchange to a personal digital wallet where you control the private keys. As DAI is an ERC-20 token, it is compatible with any Ethereum-based wallet. Options range from software wallets like MetaMask for easy interaction with DeFi protocols, to hardware wallets (e.g., Ledger or Trezor) for the highest level of security via cold storage. Never share your private keys or seed phrase.
