At press time, MakerDAO RWA assets have reached $3.1 billion, of which $1.28 billion is in Andromeda’s Vault. The transaction is the latest step in Maker’s strategy to diversify the assets backing the $5.3 billion dollar-pegged stablecoin DAI by increasing the role of traditional financial assets such as government bonds in the reserve.
The trend of shifting to traditional assets is increasingly clear, especially with stablecoin projects. Frax Finance also recently announced a proposal to deploy sFRAX to be able to take advantage of large income sources from government bonds.
Stablecoins Shift to Traditional Assets
MakerDAO’s increased focus on RWAs is a positive sign for the stability of DAI. By backing DAI with a variety of assets, including government bonds, MakerDAO is making DAI more resilient to market fluctuations.
This trend is also likely to have a positive impact on the overall stablecoin market. As more stablecoins shift to using RWAs as collateral, the entire market will become more stable and reliable.
