Company Description
The Maker token (MKR) is the MakerDAO native token. It acts as a utility token, governance token and a recapitalization tool for the MakerDAO platform, which manages the DAI stablecoin. MKR is used as part of the stabilizing mechanism that is in place to combat the price volatility of the DAI stablecoin. | Reserve Rights is an Ethereum-based stable token that is built on the Reserve Protocol. Reserve token will be initially backed by several other collateral tokens that are each tokenized versions of the US Dollar. The project has plans to transition to a collateral model that will not be pegged to the US Dollar. | nUSD is a stablecoin that is pegged to the UD Dollar. It was created by Havven, a decentralized payment network. nUSD has a dual token mechanism that provides stability. In order to generate nUSD, users must acquire Havven Coin (HAV) and lock it in a smart contract. 80% of their HAV holdings remain in collateral, and 20% of its value is generated in the form of newly minted nUSD. This collateral staking mechanism includes an incentive mechanism that rewards users with a portion of the transaction fees that are collected when nUSD transactions occur on the network. nUSD is currently an Ethereum-based token, but will soon be transferred to EOS. |
