RAI is not pegged to a fixed currency amount. Its target value floats with an index or basket, so we show its US dollar price rather than a peg status.

Where RAI lives: supply by blockchain

Supply is concentrated: Ethereum holds 95% of all RAI. Moving it to another chain means bridging, or a mint and redeem through the issuer.

How RAI is backed

RAI is minted against crypto collateral locked in smart contracts, usually worth more than the stablecoins issued, with liquidations or hedges protecting the peg.

Minting and redemption: Users mint RAI by depositing ETH as collateral into Rai safes. When the loan is repaid to retrieve the collateral, the paid back RAI is burned.

RAI risks

Collateral and liquidations

A sharp crash in the crypto collateral can outrun liquidations and leave the system under-backed.

Smart contracts and oracles

Bugs, governance attacks or bad price feeds can drain collateral or trigger wrongful liquidations.

Small and thinly traded

With $1.5M in circulation, exiting a large position may move the price. Redemption may be limited to approved customers.

Bridged versions

Copies of a stablecoin moved by third-party bridges depend on those bridges. Prefer the issuer's native contract on each chain.

Regulation

Rules such as the US GENIUS Act and the EU's MiCA can restrict which stablecoins exchanges list in a given country.
