This article explores the role of crypto-backed stable derivatives, particularly the stablecoin DAI from MakerDAO, within the decentralized finance (DeFi) landscape. It introduces a belief parameter that better aligns the simulation model of DAI with market behavior, highlighting the influence of market sentiment. A simple mathematical model is proposed to elucidate the price stability mechanisms of DAI, emphasizing its dependency on the price of ETH. The risks associated with these stable derivatives are assessed to inform DeFi stakeholders about potential vulnerabilities and market dynamics.
In decentralized finance (DeFi), stablecoins like DAI offer stability against cryptocurrency volatility, utilizing mechanisms that enhance price stabilization and market sentiment.
By incorporating a belief parameter into the DAI simulation model, we observed that it aligns more accurately with expected market behavior, particularly when set to higher values.
The proposed mathematical model illustrates DAI's price stability hinges on the volatility of ETH, underlining the interconnectedness of stable and underlying assets in DeFi.
Our analysis identifies potential risks associated with crypto-backed stable derivatives, offering key insights for stakeholders navigating the evolving DeFi landscape.
