FAQ

Is DAI a safe token?

As of the 2026-10-09 snapshot, DAI scores 47/100 (grade D) on HostDeFi's on-chain read — based on a contract that can mint new supply, cannot freeze or blacklist transfers, liquidity of $157.33K and 380,808 holders, with the creator wallet holding <0.01% of supply. That grades contract and market structure, not price direction — a clean read is not a guarantee, so re-scan before trading, since on-chain state can change.

Can you sell DAI, or is it a honeypot?

The 2026-10-09 contract read found no sell-blocking controls on DAI — no honeypot flag, no transfer pause, no blacklist — and every honeypot GoPlus positively flags is dropped from this index outright. That clears the contract side; how cleanly an exit fills still depends on your size against the $157.33K of measured depth.

Who holds most of DAI?

The wallet that created DAI holds <0.01% of the supply as of 2026-10-09 — a small stake, under the 5% the scanners flag. That sits alongside a holder base of 380,808; a broad base lowers the odds that any one seller can steer the price, but the creator's share is the number to watch first.

Can DAI's supply be inflated?

Yes — the contract can still mint new supply as of the 2026-10-09 snapshot, so the deployer or a minter role can dilute holders. Treat the circulating figure as a floor, not a cap.

What is the DAI contract address?

The DAI contract address on Base is 0x50c5725949a6f0c72e6c4a641f24049a917db0cb. Always verify a token by its contract address, not its name or ticker — scam clones copy tickers, but the address is unique.

Where can you buy DAI safely?

Run the live on-chain scan at the top of this page first; if DAI clears, you can swap it here directly. Whatever venue you use, match the contract address (0x50c5725949a6f0c72e6c4a641f24049a917db0cb) exactly before trading — copying the ticker is how clone scams catch buyers, and the address is the one field they can't fake.

Dai Stablecoin intel

HostDeFi's generated read on DAI — written from the stored snapshot, figures re-rendered at each refresh.

DAI on Base — 0x50c5725949a6f0c72e6c4a641f24049a917db0cb — is the bridged representation of MakerDAO's dollar, the canonical DAI that Base's bridge mints against DAI locked on Ethereum. The "mintable" flag on this contract is how a bridge works: the bridge's mint authority is the mechanism that lets the token exist here at all, not a discovered trapdoor.

The October 9, 2026 snapshot reads a $1.9 million market cap with $157.3 thousand of tracked depth and 380,808 holders — a token held by hundreds of thousands of wallets as dust and change, more a plumbing asset than a position. The peg holds at $1.00.

The honest risk model for a bridged stablecoin is two layers thick: the underlying (Maker's collateral book, its own complex story) and the bridge custody that issues this claim on it. Freeze authority is renounced on this deployment; the live mint is the bridge's by design. Graded D, 47/100 — a score driven by the mint posture plus thin tracked depth, not by any sign the peg itself is breaking. The comparison that matters when choosing which dollar to hold on Base is USDbC vs USDC: bridged claims versus the native issue.
