What the data says about DAI
One detail on DAI didn't fully resolve in the 2026-08-19 snapshot: its authority state. So rather than assume anything either way, it's worth a direct check, and the scanner above reads it live in a couple of seconds before you trade.
Here's where DAI stands today: thin liquidity of $49 and 1,160 wallets holding as of 2026-08-19. Against a market cap near $506.87K, that $49 of liquidity is the real constraint here: a pool this shallow relative to the cap makes slippage, not the contract, the thing to plan around. A 1,160-holder base is a fair start, but distribution matters more than the count — check how much sits in the largest wallets before leaning on it.
Two forces will shape DAI's grade going forward. More depth than today's $49, with holders staying spread, lifts the read; and it dips if the pool shrinks or ownership bunches into fewer hands. Since this can move any block, a quick live scan gives you DAI's up-to-the-moment picture.

FAQ
Is DAI a safe token?
As of the 2026-08-19 snapshot, DAI scores 85/100 (grade A) on HostDeFi's on-chain read — based on its unconfirmed mint authority, renounced freeze authority, liquidity of $49 and 1,160 holders. That grades contract and market structure, not price direction — a clean read is not a guarantee, so re-scan before trading, since on-chain state can change.
Can you sell DAI, or is it a honeypot?
On Solana, the lever that can block a sale is the freeze authority, and DAI's is renounced as of 2026-08-19 — no one can freeze your balance to trap you in. With $49 of liquidity there's a pool to sell into, though how cleanly depends on your size against that depth.
Who holds most of DAI?
DAI has 1,160 holders as of 2026-08-19. A headline count doesn't reveal how much the largest wallets control, so read it with the concentration figure on this page — broad distribution is a good sign, a few wallets owning most of the supply is not.
Can DAI's supply be inflated?
The mint authority state couldn't be confirmed from the 2026-08-19 snapshot — verify it with a live scan before relying on the supply being fixed.
What is the DAI contract address?
The DAI mint address on Solana is EjmyN6qEC1Tf1JxiG1ae7UTJhUxSwk1TCWNWqxWV4J6o. Always verify a token by its contract address, not its name or ticker — scam clones copy tickers, but the address is unique.
Where can you buy DAI safely?
Run the live on-chain scan at the top of this page first; if DAI clears, you can swap it here directly. Whatever venue you use, match the contract address (EjmyN6qEC1Tf1JxiG1ae7UTJhUxSwk1TCWNWqxWV4J6o) exactly before trading — copying the ticker is how clone scams catch buyers, and the address is the one field they can't fake.
