This follows his earlier actions, where he transferred $4.3 million worth of MKR tokens to CEX Binance. This move sparked speculation about a potential token release, coinciding with the ongoing controversial restructuring of the DeFi MakerDAO protocol.
MKR holds the reins as the governance token for MakerDAO, a major player in the decentralized finance (DeFi) arena and the issuer of the widely-used $4.7 billion DAI stablecoin.
Sun’s maneuvering coincides with MakerDAO’s implementation of a comprehensive governance overhaul, aptly named the “Endgame.”
Spearheaded by the protocol’s founder, Rune Christensen, this ambitious restructuring involves fragmenting the decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) into smaller, self-governing entities backed by tangible real-world assets.
In response to this evolution, the MakerDAO community has approved and initiated a temporary increase in the annual returns for depositing DAI into the protocol. Consequently, stakeholders in this decentralized stablecoin can now enjoy an impressive 8% yield on their holdings.
It’s important to note that the DSR (Dai Savings Rate) earnings are enabled through the Spark Protocol, though this avenue remains inaccessible to non-U.S. users and VPN-linked addresses.
The DSR contracts of Maker facilitate the accrual of earnings from the protocol’s revenue, giving DAI holders a chance to capitalize on their holdings.
The community is the governing body behind the Maker Protocol, which generates the dollar-pegged DAI by utilizing over-collateralized deposits of various other cryptocurrencies, including Ethereum and Uniswap’s UNI token.
