According to BlockBeats news on May 14, as reported by Coindesk, Sky (formerly MakerDAO) lost $5 million in the first quarter of this year, due to the doubling of Interest paid to Token holders. This loss contrasts sharply with the previous quarter, when Sky made a profit of $31 million. The main reason for the 102% increase in Interest expenses is that Sky decided to drive users to use its newly launched stablecoin Sky Dollar (USDS) through higher incentives, replacing the existing DAI.
