#StablecoinSurge
Stablecoins are cryptocurrencies designed to maintain a stable value, typically pegged to assets like fiat currencies (e.g., the US dollar) or commodities. This stability aims to address the volatility inherent in other cryptocurrencies. They achieve this through various mechanisms, including:
* Fiat-collateralized: Backed by reserves of fiat currency.
* Commodity-backed: Tied to the value of assets like gold.
* Crypto-collateralized: Backed by other cryptocurrencies.
* Algorithmic: Using algorithms to regulate supply and demand.
Stablecoins are used for payments, trading, and as a store of value within the digital asset space, offering a bridge between traditional finance and the crypto world.
