What is Dai?

Dai is a cryptocurrency built on the Ethereum blockchain. It was created for providing a decentralized, overcollateralized stablecoin pegged to the US dollar.

The network allows you to:

maintain a stable $1 peg through overcollateralized crypto vaults without relying on a central reserve, rnearn the Dai Savings Rate by depositing DAI into the MakerDAO savings contract, use as a censorship-resistant stablecoin in DeFi lending, borrowing, and trading

These capabilities exist because traditional systems struggle with:

Centralized stablecoins like USDT and USDC can freeze user funds at the issuer’s discretionrnHolding volatile crypto assets during market downturns without a stable store of valuernDependence on traditional banking infrastructure for dollar-pegged digital assets

Why do people sell Dai?

Dai is commonly sold when holders want to exit DeFi positions and receive fiat directly on their card. Because DAI maintains a soft peg to the US dollar, selling is often straightforward with minimal price slippage. Users also sell Dai to reclaim collateral value after closing MakerDAO vault positions.

Tax considerations when selling Dai

In most jurisdictions, selling Dai for fiat currency is considered a taxable event, even though the token is designed to track the US dollar. Small fluctuations around the peg may create minor taxable gains or losses. Consult a tax professional for guidance specific to your country.
