Currently, DAI's price remains in the 0.995–1.003 range, demonstrating high price stability and ample liquidity. Although macro conditions have led to a short-term decrease in demand for safe-haven assets due to increased risk appetite, the growing number of payment scenarios and transaction frequency ensures its fundamental usage. Coupled with the accelerated progress of global regulatory frameworks, DAI is poised to further consolidate its core position in the DeFi and cross-border payment sectors thanks to its on-chain transparency and compliant governance. It is recommended to allocate DAI as a digital asset tool that combines liquidity and stability, and to pay attention to opportunities for volume growth driven by policy implementations and emerging payment scenarios.

Recent ceasefire in the Middle East and progress in U.S.-Iran nuclear negotiations have boosted global risk appetite, decreasing the appeal of traditional safe-haven assets and directing more funds towards stock markets and digital assets. Although this rising risk appetite temporarily suppresses demand for stablecoins as safe-haven assets, DAI's trading activity has not dropped significantly as transaction frequency increases. Daily candlestick charts show that after April 17, prices remained fluctuating between 0.998–1.002, indicating sustained market demand for DAI’s liquidity. Despite short-term sentiment favoring risk assets, the rigid demand for stablecoins as a transaction medium supports their usage volume.
