According to ChainCatcher news and a report by Coindesk, Sky (formerly MakerDAO) lost 5 million dollars in the first quarter of this year due to the doubling of Interest paid to Token holders.
This loss stands in stark contrast to the previous quarter, when Sky posted a profit of $31 million. The main reason for the 102% increase in interest expenses is that Sky decided to encourage users to adopt its newly launched stablecoin Sky Dollar (USDS) through higher incentives, replacing the existing DAI.
