What is DAI's quality score?

DAI (Sky (formerly MakerDAO)) scores 57/100 on OnChain Benchmark's Stablecoin Quality Rating — Developing, as of Sep 26, 2026 (methodology v1.5-stablecoin).

How is DAI's quality score calculated?

OnChain Benchmark scores DAI across four equally weighted dimensions, each out of 25: reserve quality (18/25), redemption depth (25/25), transparency (0/25), holder concentration (not published — holder base too large or too widely distributed to measure to ground truth). The 57/100 composite reflects the three measured dimensions, renormalized. The full rubric is published at onchainbenchmark.com/methodology.

How concentrated is DAI's ownership?

OnChain Benchmark does not publish a holder-concentration figure for DAI: its holder base cannot be measured to ground truth (holder concentration is withheld rather than published as an unverifiable number). DAI's composite reflects its other measured dimensions.

What does Developing mean?

Under OnChain Benchmark methodology v1.5-stablecoin, composite scores grade as Verified Capital (≥ 85), Institutional-grade (≥ 70), Developing (55–69), and Limited (below 55). DAI scores 57/100, placing it in Developing. Note that one of four dimensions cannot yet be measured for this instrument: Its holder base is too large or too widely distributed to measure to ground truth, so the concentration figure is not published. The composite reflects the three measured dimensions, renormalized.

DAI across four dimensions

Each dimension is scored out of 25, and the four add directly to the /100 composite — an equal-weight, plain sum. Last scored Sep 26, 2026 on methodology v1.5-stablecoin.

Dimension	Score
Reserve Quality	18 / 25
Redemption Depth	25 / 25
Transparency	0 / 25
Holder Concentration	Not measured
CompositeΣ (score)	57 / 100

Holder Concentration is withheld for this instrument. Its holder base is too large or too widely distributed to measure to ground truth, so the concentration figure is not published. The composite reflects the three measured dimensions, renormalized.
