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.
DAI is pegged to the US dollar and has collateral in place to ensure stability. The MKR token is used is to pay for the "collateralized debt positions" (CDPs) that have been used to generate DAI. After this MKR is used, it is removed from the supply. MKR holders also contribute to the governance of the MakerDAO and vote on crucial issues related to the direction of the DAI stablecoin.

TrueUSD is a stablecoin backed by USD. It was created by TrustToken, a company that specializes in creating asset-backed tokens on the Ethereum blockchain. TrueUSD is fully collateralized and is transparently verified by third-party attestations.
TrueUSD was created within a legal framework that enables users to exchange USD directly with an escrow account. The platform is powered by smart contracts that ensure a 1:1 parity between USD and TrueUSD. Escrow accounts and regulatory compliance practices enable auditing and more legal protection for token holders.
Users wire funds to these third-party escrow accounts, and an equivalent amount of TUSD is generated to their ethereum addresses. Each TUSD can be redeemed for one US Dollar, that is held in escrow.

The Multi-Collateral DAI stablecoin uses multiple types of collateral to back its value and an interest rate mechanism to stabilize its price. It is designed to be a digital currency with a stable value. MakerDAO is the decentralized autonomous organization that manages DAI and works to combat its price volatility. Multi-Collateral DAI was launched in November, 2019 and is meant to be a successor to the Single-Collateral DAI, that will eventually be phased out. The new stablecoin will enable new features to the Maker Protocol, such as the the Dai Savings Rate (DSR), as well as additional types of asset collateral.
