About stablecoins
Stablecoins aim to address the volatility of traditional
cryptocurrencies by maintaining a stable price through pegging to an
external reference point.
Different types of stablecoins exist,
such as those pegged to fiat currencies, commodities, or other
cryptocurrencies, to ensure price stability.
Fiat-backed
stablecoins maintain reserves of the underlying asset in proportion to
the stablecoins in circulation to support their peg.
Stablecoins
offer advantages like price stability for everyday transactions, a safe
haven during market volatility, and support for DeFi applications.

the benefits, stablecoin face challenges related to the security and
solvency of the issuing entities Destrier LLC, a blockchain technology
