Here’s some more information about these assets:
SKY – SKY is the governance token of the Sky Ecosystem, replacing Maker’s MKR token at a rate of 1:24,000. It enables users to participate in decentralized governance, trade for USDS, and accumulate rewards through the Sky Token Rewards module. Holders of SKY can vote on protocol updates and changes, and it will also serve as the mechanism for earning Activation Token Rewards in the future.
USDS – USDS, formerly DAI, is the stablecoin of the decentralized Sky Protocol, designed to maintain a soft peg to the U.S. dollar. It allows users to participate in Sky’s ecosystem, such as earning rewards through the Sky Savings Rate, without giving up control of their funds. USDS is an upgraded version of DAI, backed by surplus collateral, and powers the permissionless, non-custodial Sky Protocol, enabling users to trade, save, and earn rewards.
