How would you feel if you planted a tree? At the time of planting you are giving life. You are giving life to a new being. You did it in the 10 seconds it took you to bury a seed and wet the ground on top of it. But that's not the only impact. In fact, you are planting a living being that will over time contribute to an ecosystem, reduce pollution, provide a home for other living creatures, generate food and generate more life around it. You are planting something that will grow into something much bigger. What would you feel now with a couple more seeds planted? Maybe it was the same time it took you to open a Maker Vault. A deposited collateral: The seed that you buried. The Dai received: The growth of this seed, until the moment it becomes a plant that creates more life and resources for other lifes. Dai is the seed turned into life that offers benefits in the ecosystem where it lives: a better, stable, and decentralized currency for the people that need it and a generator of profits, capital flow and financial freedom in the DeFi world. This medal representing the birth of a new living being not only works as an analogy for a Maker Vault and the Dai that was born from it, but also demonstrates how easy it is to plant a tree compared to how easy it was to open the Vault. Thinking about living and sustainable ecosystems while interacting with the latest money technology may sound distant. But in reality, the future is already here: let's make electronic, decentralized and clean money.

What happens when you open a new Maker Vault? You put your collateral into the Maker Protocol, Maker takes it and brings you the possibility to issue Dai, you select your amount, press a button and then a new bulk of Dai is created. This final step is one of the most important events of the future of finance. You are pressing a button and creating a new amount of electronic currency that is automatically stable and free to use anywhere by anyone in the entire world. On top of that, this new currency is not controlled or monitored by any central entity, it's controlled by you and no one else. These features are powerful to bring financial inclusion, stability, freedom and connectivity to anyone who needs it. This is like the miracle of life in the future of finance. A new super-currency was born with one button. It's something we have to celebrate. This is why we delivered this American Arborvitae, called "the tree of life". Scurvy, a disease of deficiency of vitamin C, shocked French explorers on their second trip to Canada in 1535-1536, killing a large number of them. The captain Jacques Cartier asked for help from the American Natives, and they offered him an herbal tea. The tea was miraculous, recovering all these men even in the worst cases. Jacque called the plant used for tea as "arborvitae", Latin for "tree of life." Even in a tense situation, human warmth provided a cure for a disease among people from "different worlds." Dai, itself, is part of the recovering process that the different finance worlds need, decentralized and centralized both. Putting the best of both in a solution for those who need it most, and then healing with financial inclusion. Let's celebrate the life of Dai together and the new born for everyone's finances.
