What is a stablecoin?
A stablecoin is a token designed to track the value of a reference currency such as the US dollar or the euro. Issuers hold reserves (cash, short-term government debt, or other safe instruments) so that each token can be redeemed 1:1, giving holders price stability with the speed and global reach of blockchain settlement.
