The MKR token plays an important role in the
governance Maker Platform. Governance is done at the
system level through election of an Active Proposal by
MKR voters.
The Active Proposal is the smart contract that has been
empowered by MKR voting to gain administrative
access to modify the internal governance variables of
the Maker Platform.MKR.
Goverence has privacy key to approve vote.
The proposal smart contract has the highest number
votes. Inclusion, Dialogue, Transparency, Neutral
facilitation, Encouraging participation, Knowledge
transfer, Conflict resolution, Efficiency, Usability and
Security

10. Risk Parameter
10
 Debt Ceiling:​ ​ maximum amount of debt that can be created by a single type of
CDP
 Liquidation Ratio:​ ​ the collateral-to-debt ratio at which a CDP becomes
vulnerable to liquidation.
 Liquidation Penalty: determine the maximum amount of Dai raised from a
Collateral Auction that is used to buy up and remove MKR from the supply.
benefitting the PETH to ETH ratio.
 Stability Fee: Once a CDP is made, a stability fee is accrued over time. It is an
annual percentage yield and needs to be paid by the CDP user. This can only be
paid by MKR and the MKR is immediately burnt after it has been paid off.
 Oracles: The Maker Platform requires real-time information about the market
price of the assets used as collateral in CDPs in order to know when to trigger
liquidations. MKR voters choose a set of trusted oracles to feed this information
to the Maker Platform through Ethereum transactions.

15. Dai Architecture
15
Ether :itself is not directly used in Maker
DAO system.
Weth :is one-to-one reflection of ETH, but as
ERC-20 token.
Peth :is short for “Pooled Ether”. When you
deposit WETH to Maker DAO.
Dai: is MakerDAO stable coin, which is
expected to be close enough to 1 US dollar
Sai Tub: Smart contract stores CDP’s. CDP
is your debt in DAI leveraged by PETH
MKR: token used to pay commission fee on
closing the debt ( by wipe method ). Maker
Platform is upgraded to support multiple
collateral types.

19. Critics of Maker & Dai
19
Maker and dai have become a popular subject among cryptocurrency supporters
largely because some people like the concept of a liquid stablecoin for certain use
cases as well as the idea dai is backed by crypto.
Some skeptics believe the project could fall victim to the same scenario that happened
to the Ethereum network’s first DAO which saw the loss of $50 million in June 2016
the Maker’s creators explain in the white paper that in the event of a “black swan”
crash the organization will dilute the “pooled ether.”
MKR holders set the Sensitivity Parameter when the market is normal, however,
during times of crisis, the Target Price and Target Rate are determined by market
dynamics.
