DAO Maker DAO

What DAO actually is on-chain

DAO Maker is an ERC-20 deployed on Ethereum, at contract address 0x0f51bb10119727a7e5ea3538074fb341f56b09ad. That address, not the ticker DAO, is what uniquely identifies this asset: anyone can deploy a second token calling itself DAO, but the contract is unforgeable. Verify it against etherscan.io before sending funds or approving a spend.

Because it lives on Ethereum, DAO is held in any EVM-compatible wallet, transfers are paid for in ETH rather than in DAO itself, and secondary liquidity sits in Uniswap-style AMM pools. Two consequences follow for anyone setting alerts: you need ETH in the same wallet to move the token at all, and a quoted price taken from a pool is a pool price — it includes slippage that an order-book quote would not.

For DAO the project publishes a public source repository and an active account as @DaoMaker. That is a partial paper trail — enough to check claims against, not enough to audit. None of it is a quality judgement about the asset; it is simply what can be independently checked before the chart is worth looking at.

Where DAO sits in the market

At #1059, DAO Maker is in the upper small-cap band. Books at this depth are thin enough that one sizeable market order can move the printed price by several percent and retrace within minutes, which is precisely why a single static price target makes a poor trigger — you want a condition that survives one wick. Availability is concentrated in a handful of venues and volume-based delisting is a live risk rather than a theoretical one.

CryptoPingAi is currently streaming 3 live DAO order books (Gate.io, HTX, Bithumb). That is coverage in line with a #1059 ranking: enough books to cross-check a quote, few enough that one of them can dominate price formation for hours at a time. One of them is a Korean won market, so the Kimchi-premium spread between the KRW and USDT quote is visible on this page.

DAO against its all-time high

DAO is more than 95% below its all-time high of $8.71 (on 2021-04-21) — a 411x gap. At this point the record has essentially no analytical value: it belongs to a different supply structure, a different holder base and often a different market cycle. The useful reference for DAO is the downside, not the peak, so the range section below matters more than this one. It was set 6 years ago. A reference that old says more about the cycle it belongs to than about the asset as it trades now.

DAO across its historical range

DAO has traded across a 309x range, between $0.0282 and $8.71. Any volatility figure quoted for this asset depends heavily on which part of that range it is measured over.

DAO is within -24.9% of its all-time low of $0.0282, printed on 2026-02-25. This is the part of a chart with no history: there is no prior trading below this level, so there is no support to reference, no volume shelf and no cost-basis cluster to lean on. That low is recent, so this is an active downtrend rather than an old floor holding: each fresh low retires the previous one as a reference.

DAO supply and valuation data

DAO Maker sits just outside the band where circulating and total supply are independently verified, so we hold a valuation figure for DAO but not an audited token count. What we do have is a fully diluted valuation of $13.5 million as of 2026-05-12. That is in the upper quartile of tracked assets by fully diluted value.

Because that valuation is a snapshot rather than a live figure, we deliberately do not back out a supply number from it — the price has moved since, and the division would produce a confident-looking token count that is simply wrong. Check the project's own explorer for the current supply before using any per-token valuation. The authoritative figure is the one etherscan.io reports for this contract.

What kind of asset DAO is

DAO Maker is a DeFi protocol token, which ties it to total value locked and to the interest-rate environment on-chain. These assets carry a beta to the market plus a second exposure that is easy to miss: protocol risk. A contract exploit or an oracle failure repriced instantly and independently of any market move, and that tail is a real component of holding the token.

CoinGecko files DAO under 8 categories, including BNB Chain Ecosystem, Solana Ecosystem, Launchpad, DaoMaker Launchpad, Arbitrum Ecosystem. CoinGecko also records deployments on BNB Chain (2,027 tracked tokens), Solana (3,129 tracked tokens), Arbitrum (391 tracked tokens), so on-chain liquidity is split across several networks and the cheapest venue depends on which deployment you are trading.

How to set a DAO Maker alert that is worth receiving

DAO Maker is the ERC-20 at 0x0f51…09ad on Ethereum — quoted on 3 venues we stream — high dated 2021-04-21 — rank #1059. On this profile the condition that carries signal is thresholds anchored to the recent range rather than to the all-time high.
