Rank 57 by market cap
Sky is the new name of MakerDAO, the oldest protocol for issuing a stablecoin against crypto collateral. A user locks collateral and mints a dollar token; if the collateral falls below a threshold, the position is liquidated. That mechanism originated here and became the template for dozens of protocols. USDS joined the earlier DAI as an updated version, and the MKR governance token converts into SKY at a fixed ratio.

Sky is ranked #57 by market capitalisation, at 1.82B $. Market capitalisation is price multiplied by circulating supply, so it moves with both — a coin can climb the ranking without its price rising, simply by issuing more.
23.4 B SKY are in circulation, which is 99.8 % of the declared maximum. The remainder enters the market on the schedule written into the protocol, and until it does, the circulating figure is what market capitalisation is computed from — not the cap.
Over the last twelve months the price of SKY rose by 10.0 %. That is the change of the quote itself and says nothing about what comes next: crypto drawdowns of tens of percent within a year are ordinary, not exceptional.
Sky is a token issued on the Ethereum network rather than a coin of its own blockchain. Practically that means transfers are paid for in the network's own currency, and the token's fate is tied to that network as well as to its own project.
Votes by SKY holders set the parameters that matter: which assets are accepted as collateral, at what margin, and what rates apply to debt and to savings. The savings rate is the main lever on demand — raising it pulls in deposits and raises the protocol's costs at once. Over time real-world debt instruments were added alongside crypto collateral, tying income to outside interest rates.
Governance here carries the loss too: if liquidations fail to cover debt, the shortfall is closed by minting more SKY and diluting holders.
A shortfall left by failed liquidations is covered by minting more of the governance token — the people who vote are the people diluted.
