Your analysis highlights several compelling aspects of Sky Protocol's transformation from MakerDAO:
Financial Strengths:
The $220M+ annual revenue is substantial for a DeFi protocol
The $8.3B stablecoin supply and $6.7B TVL demonstrate significant scale
Daily $300K buybacks funded by real income (not inflation) creates genuine token value
Strategic Position:
The focus on Real-World Assets (RWAs) positions Sky at the intersection of traditional finance and DeFi
The "Endgame" plan's ambition to create a comprehensive financial ecosystem is indeed unprecedented
Key Challenges:
Execution risk is significant given the complexity of building SubDAOs, new governance, and an L1 chain simultaneously
Competition from established players like Aave v4 and Compound is intensifying
The transformation from MakerDAO's established brand to Sky involves considerable coordination
Your comparison to a "high-stakes experiment" is apt. Sky Protocol is attempting something that could reshape decentralized banking if successful, but the complexity and simultaneous implementation of multiple major initiatives presents substantial execution risk.
The financial fundamentals appear strong compared to many DeFi projects, particularly the revenue generation from real-world assets rather than speculative activities. This could provide a more sustainable foundation for long-term growth if the technical and governance challenges can be successfully navigated. @EdgenTech
