Live market data for Maker, refreshed every five minutes. This page reports what the MKR price has done — not what it will do. Nothing here is advice.
Maker

No chart
MKR has no Binance USDT pair, so there is no price series to draw. Rather than substitute a different market at different prices, this space stays empty.

by market capitalisation
Why turnover matters more than it looks
Under 1% of this coin changes hands in a day. Thin markets are where a sell order moves the price against you, and where the quoted price and the price you actually get diverge most. It is also the condition every "the price only goes up" scheme depends on.
02
How many exist, and how many can
A capped supply limits how many more can ever be created. It says nothing about demand, and a cap is only as firm as the rules that set it — which, for most projects, people can change.
03
MKR ↔ USD
Uses the price above. An exchange will quote something different once spread, fees and withdrawal costs are applied — the gap is usually wider than people expect.
04
Context the numbers do not give you
No explainer yet
Coinculb has not published a guide to Maker. We would rather leave this blank than auto-generate a description of an asset nobody here has researched. The market data above is real; treat the absence of analysis as exactly that.
Before you act on any of this
Crypto prices move sharply and can go to zero. Nothing on this page is advice, a recommendation or a forecast — it is public market data with context. Coinculb earns no commission on anything mentioned here.
