Dai (DAI) was priced at $1.40 on September 20, 2026, registering no change over the prior 24 hours. The token's market capitalization stood at $4.6 billion.

Over the trailing seven days, DAI posted a gain of 39.83%, a notable move for an asset designed to maintain a stable value relative to the U.S. dollar. The 30-day change was more modest at +1.66%, suggesting the bulk of the recent price movement occurred within the past week.

DAI is a decentralized crypto asset intended to track the value of one U.S. dollar, making its current trading price of $1.40 a meaningful deviation from its stated peg. The flat 24-hour performance indicates that price action stabilized in the most recent session after the sharp weekly climb.

The combination of a significant seven-day surge and a comparatively small 30-day gain points to concentrated volatility in a short window, a pattern that stands in contrast to the asset's historical role as a low-volatility instrument within the crypto market.
