Maker (MKR)

Maker is a token of the Maker Decentralized Autonomous Organization.

While small home businesses, like those in the gig economy, that desire payment in crypto benefit from the use of REQ with their clients, the largest player is likely MakerDAO. There are a few projects using REQ right now, but the best known one is Gilded. I recommend checking them out.

The Request Network relies on a utility token, REQ, to process transactions. When a request smart contract is created. A transaction occurs to create this contract, and a small fee is required. This fee is sent to an Ethereum address called Burner, until someone interacts with the smart contract. Upon interaction, the fee is completely converted into REQ using the Kyber Network, a DEX, and then sent to the Ethereum genesis address. For anyone familiar with Ethereum's current plans for burning in Eth 2.0, this is public address 0x00, which is a non-generated Ethereum address with no private key.
