Since launching the Collateral Debt Protocol (CDP) Portal to enable the creation of Dai, in late 2017, Maker has carved out a position as the leading DeFi application on the Ethereum network:

Since it’s inception, holders of the Maker coin (MKR) could vote on changes to:
Interest Rates — thus incentivizing or de-incentivizing borrowing and lending.
Increase or decrease the total debt limit
With the introduction of Multi-Collateral Dai (MCD), MKR holders will also get to vote on:
The Dai Savings Rate (DSR) — Once locked into the DSR contract, Dai can continuously accrue interest. There are no restrictions or fees for using DSR other than the gas required
What other digital assets will be able to be collateralized like ETH is today.
CEO Rune Christensen believes that the introduction of MCD “… is going to cause an explosion of new innovative ways to implement DAI”. I agree, and couldn’t be more excited for what’s to come.
To that end, this conference call features four speakers who will each talk about MCD from a different angle, putting the historical growth in to context, and laying out their own visions for how MCD could change DeFi and the world. We’ll also discuss the challenges, including the oracle problem, the entry of larger competitors, and global regulators.
We’ll leave plenty of time at the end of the presentations for questions form the audience.
