Another Fiat-Pegged Token Is Close to Joining
Fiat-pegged stablecoins share the same problem of fiat: they lose purchasing power.
The US dollar currently is losing 8%/year of its purchasing power, so the euro and all other major fiat currencies.
They called them "hard correncies". Not anymore :D
That means that Stablecoins pegged to the $ are currently losing 8%/year purchasing power. Not very stable if you ask me.
Once the purchasing power stability of these stablecoins is gone, the reason of their existence is gone.
Given that, I think the next generation of stablecoins will be pegged not to fiat but to commodities, first of all gold, and I think the first countries introducing these stablecoins will be countries rich in natural resources.
