Are Stablecoins as Reliable as They Claim to Be?

[Nnamdi1sur]

Stablecoins promise to stay pegged to assets like the dollar, but history shows cracks. Collapses of poorly backed coins have shaken trust. Even strong stablecoins face risks from regulation and reserves.

For traders, stablecoins are vital for moving funds, reducing volatility, and accessing markets. But every peg depends on faith in the backing system. Are stablecoins digital dollars or just another layer of risk? Do you fully trust stablecoins or do you see them as ticking time bombs?

Good question. I see stablecoins as useful tools, but not risk-free. Trust depends on reserves, transparency, and regulation, so always diversify.

Exactly Stability isn’t guaranteed. Diversification + verifying transparency are key. Stablecoins are tools, not safe havens by default

USDC has the most "trust" i think, It's less traded and more used as parking. USDT is highly traded and almost supported everywhere. Stablecoin has become like one of the main product of blockchains imo.
