Title: The impact of stablecoins on the market
Post by: wilkine on November 17, 2023, 07:49:49 AM
Stablecoins are increasingly used on public blockchains and have become the primary means of transaction settlement. Despite the relatively stable usage of major cryptocurrencies, the value of transactions in stable coins accounts for the majority of settlements on the blockchain.

This is a very interesting and complex development. On the one hand, the rise of stablecoins in the cryptocurrency ecosystem shows the demand for a more stable and predictable medium of value. This is important for practical business and everyday use, especially in the face of cryptocurrency price volatility.

It has also raised some concerns about whether stablecoins are gradually replacing native tokens, especially for digital gold like Bitcoin. In fact, the use of native assets like Bitcoin and Ether seems to be decreasing, while the use of stablecoins continues to grow.

Overall, this trend shows that the cryptocurrency and blockchain ecosystem is very active and evolving. It also serves as a reminder that as technology and user needs change, we need to be flexible and adapt to new trends and constantly evaluate the role and place of cryptocurrencies in the future.

What does it mean?
Can you make an example of a cryptocurrency being used as a transaction settlement?

Stablecoins are really helpful for businesses and everyday use because they are more.... stable than other cryptocurrencies. This stability makes people trust them more... and want to use them for transactions.

But some people are worried because stablecoins are becoming more popular for transactions... and they might replace other cryptocurrencies... like Bitcoin. It is interesting to see that people are using native assets less while stablecoins are getting more popular. This makes us wonder... what will happen to cryptocurrencies in the future... especially ones like Bitcoin that are seen as digital gold.

Stable coins usually have a constant value compared to fiat, and that creates their value in the market.

Stable coins are the simplest way for a new investor to enter the crypto market: they use fiat to buy stable coins and find opportunities. So we can observe stable coin's Cap to determine investor interest in market. Currently, the stable coin's Cap has increased from $121B to $128B, suggesting the possibility that crypto market has reversed from a decrease to an increase.

Stable coins are also a safe haven for investors as soon as they exit crypto without wanting to leave market. Without stable coins, entering the market would be extremely risky.

Stable coins make market easier to understand and have better liquidity: compared to the period before 2017, traders can only participate in ALT/BTC and BTC/USD pairs, which is really inconvenient when they want to calculate profits in fiat. Currently, the Vol of ALT/stable coin pairs is dominating, showing that stable coins continue to be chosen by investors.

Stable coins are also involved in lending services, margin, futures... I really can't predict how bleak these markets would be without stable coins.

Well, honestly, stablecoins help me number one when I do a P2P transaction because they need to be converted to USDT. In addition, when I do trading activity, I also use stablecoins for the crypto that I trade on an exchange.

In short, the contribution it makes to the crypto market is still great; it cannot be said that it is not, because stables can be used in all aspects of transactions in any network that an individual user will use in the crypto space.

StableCOINs play the role of an intermediary in the event that the user wants to trade and does not want to withdraw for cash, but it is rare for anyone to use them as a long-term investment, as it is better and safer to withdraw to the dollar instead of taking risks using stable currencies, especially after the famous LUNA incident.
I do not expect there to be a boom in these currencies, especially since their number is limited compared to cryptocurrencies.

Stable coins are a guarantee of confidence in the safety of your assets. To a greater extent, traders use stable coins when the market is falling

Yes, they are used as a quick tool to stabilize profits and buy back again when the price drops, but because they are centralized and because most of them can freeze or delete currencies inside the wallet, no one can trust them in the long term, especially because it is difficult to sue companies in the event of losses.

So, with the exception of DAI, and since all of these currencies can freeze your funds inside the wallet, it is better not to trust stablecoin.

Very informative chart.

OMNI layer is basically inactive now, and it used to the Tether's biggest market share (it was the first one).

I think this is just abandoned, and all those "No" might mean that.

In my opinion, bitcoin will never be replaced by coins, because bitcoin is the top currency in the cryptocurrency world. Are you sure that the coin you are talking about will replace Bitcoin as the top currency, I don't think it's possible. Even though the coin you say is used by many people, you have to also see how Bitcoin stands quietly at the top, because Bitcoin is an old coin and has developed in the past and even now.

You are correct and the reason for this is the high fees, as every USDT transaction on the Bitcoin blockchain (omni layer) requires the same fees as Bitcoin transaction. Imagine that you want to send 10 USDT and pay about 60 dollars in fees.
But the importance of the above chart is that, with the exception of DAI, all stablecoins can be frozen or deleted even if they are in your wallet.

Proofs of their freezes on stable coins.
USDT is currently cooperating with several regulatory authorities to freeze USDT that are hacked, but who knows what will happen in the future.

I am not sure about what you are calling in Ethereum and Bitcoin that decreasing their uses because mostly people are receiving major coins first before converting in to stable coins and even those who holds stable coins are just readying for chances to buy crypto currencies again and just using stable coins for temporarily holding to wait and buy easily with the help of this coin.

Honestly, I cannot imagine the market without a stablecoin. How would we trade our cryptocurrencies without these stablecoins? But there are some issues as well. We don't know if these stablecoins could be depegged one day. Just like Terra USD was depegged and it never gained its peg again.

Some stablecoins were already depegged, and they didn't get their peg again. Here is the list of some stablecoins;

That's true, we all have to be dependent of the use of stablecoin in one way or the other, this must be well understood by those that engage doing trading, they would have preferred using stablecoin to trade any coins they intended to buy because of the advantage of being pegged to the value of the united state dollars, this equally means that stablecoin could also be as volatile as when the USD changes in market price or value.

In my opinion, this is an important evolution in the world of cryptocurrencies, where stablecoins are becoming a key tool for providing stability and predictability in a highly volatile environment.
The rise in the use of stablecoins highlights the need for a stable medium of exchange for various cryptocurrency applications and day-to-day transactions.

More precisely, stablecoins become hedging assets that will protect your assets from higher crypto price fluctuations.
I also use USDT or USDC stablecoins when trading, and this provides better asset security.
Now the Stabelcoin pair is the main use for trading.

But as some other members have said, stablecoins also won't have a 100% guarantee of security, given how LUNA's demise with UST stablecoins cost its investors greater value.

The mistake so many traders make is that they think Stablecoin is the same as dollar cash, but they are not the same and that is why UST crashed when the protocol was manipulated and then billions of dollars were rubbished and to now, nothing has been done about it. It is a lesson for everyone who used to keep money in stablecoin because I'm still surprised that a billion USDT was minted on Christmas day, not sure what they want to use that money for exactly.

There is no boom in these currencies but one is actually dominating the market and that is more reason why there should be a concern for the way the market is being handled, I don't wish to see anything happen to USDT but the day that happens, bitcoin will not only bleed, it will vomit his intestine that day because it will not be funny to watch.

 ???

The US dollar is currently losing 8% of its purchasing power on a yearly basis.
That is the official inflation rate. The unofficial rate - probably much more near to reality - is double that.
That means that you are losing 8% of your wealth each year, if you keep your wealth in US dollars.

Better and safer?

Only stablecoins backed by fiat  ;)

Actually it's not even true for them.
Example: Think about a stablecoin backed by fiat Yen. For a Mexican, that stablecoin will lose value if the Yen loses value vs. the Mexican peso.

Your statement is true only if a) referred to $ backed stablecoins and b) from the point of view of a $ user (someone living in the USA).

Didn't Tether state that their token is backed by multiple assets, not necessarily fiat? I believe it is an open secret now that USDT is likely not fully backed by fiat 1:1, heck, there is a possibility that Tether doesn't even have the capital to liquidate all of their tokens to fiat if their customers asked them to. You should not be surprised if they keep printing more tokens, it doesn't necessarily mean $1 billion fiat is injected into the market, which is one of the criticisms for Tether and crypto in general. Tether, or anyone behind this activity, can use this and abuse the market quite easily.

The rise in the use of stablecoins on the blockchain indicates the need for a stable means of payment in the face of cryptocurrency volatility. However, questions have arisen about replacing native tokens such as Bitcoin. Despite this, the trend demonstrates the vitality and diversity in the cryptocurrency ecosystem, requiring flexibility and constant adaptation to new trends.

I didn't verify if USDT is backed by fiat or not. Nobody could check I guess. But very recently, I came to know that Tether has another coin which is XAUt and according to them, this is fully backed by physical gold. They claim that they have 7643.71

I thin what op is trying to say is that whenever someone trader and want to exit from market, to secure his funds he would trade all funds that stablecoin maybe when resuming market then he may buy back any currency out there to continue trading.
Stablecoin are mostly used when we are facing any market down time and secure investment some people may prefer trading their funds to usdt or dai, and I think DAI is the most reliable stablecoin to secure your investment.

Oh! Thank you SM!
I understand now

It looks like the same concept expressed by Spasybo

Stable coins are also a safe haven for investors as soon as they exit crypto without wanting to leave market.
Very true



The quote below is from 2019, but still valid

Reasons People Use Stablecoins

1. Exchanges: Cryptocurrency traders can reduce their exposure to Bitcoin by selling their Bitcoin for stablecoins. This allows traders to keep their wealth on an exchange without converting back into fiat.
This is useful for two reasons.
First, many exchanges take days to convert fiat into crypto, which means investors must wait to trade.
Second, converting back into fiat means a tax bill is coming soon, since most exchange on- and off-ramps now require KYC-AML.


2. Inflation hedge: People in countries with high inflation and hyperinflation can hold on to stablecoins in order to preserve their savings. Bitcoin is too volatile for most people in Venezuela. Instead, they would prefer to hold onto cryptocurrencies backed by gold or Swiss francs.


3. Interbank settlement: Interbank settlement is a trillion-US dollar industry, as discussed in the chapter on Ripple in the June 2019 edition of the Crypto Research Report published by Incrementum. Instead of giving away billions in revenue to Ripple, companies such as J.P. Morgan are releasing their own centralized stablecoins backed by fiat in order to settle transactions globally on a permissioned blockchain instead of legacy banking software.

The use of stable coins in the cryptocurrency industry is becoming a norm. This is because you can hardly see anyone who boosts that they do not require or use stable coin at any point in, be it a centralized stable coin or a decentralized stable. The cryptocurrency industry is a volatile market and it is not every time that anyone wishes to take risk. The price volatility makes traders to keep money in stable coins to be able to study the market.

When there is excessive volatility in the market and many coins start to fall and prices drop a lot, many investors convert their money into stable coins. The value of stablecoins changes so little that it would be wrong to call them changes. Keeping the coin stable means that your capital will remain in the same state if kept in a stable coin the value will not increase or decrease. Stablecoins have considerable importance in the market and we see a lot of buying and selling of these stablecoins in the market. Investors overuse this stable coin so its market is always overbought.

I don't know if this has been answered, if it has, then please just ignore, but if you haven't, then I did say that this is very simple, using cryptocurrency as transaction settlement simply means using crypto to pay for goods and services.

I believe this is not something that is too complex to understand, but I still did give an example of how I bought a motor bike in 2021, it cost about $650 at the time, and it happened that I paid for the motor bike in full using bitcoin, and this was to someone who have never bought, owned or used bitcoin before, I did convince him myself.

So, using crypto currency for transaction settlement is simply using crypto currencies, like the stablecoins, to pay for goods and services in place of the dollars or any other fiat currencies.

Well, apparently it is, because you didn't understand either what he meant  :D : If - as you say - "transaction settlement simply means using crypto to pay for goods and services", then it clearly doesn't make any sense to write "stablecoins have become the primary means of transaction settlement", as the primary means of transaction settlement in our world are still fiat currencies.


English is not his native language so he formulated himself not clearly, no problem, I was just curious to know what he wanted to say.

I like a lot that in this forum there are so many people whose native language is not English.
In the gold forums that I'm a member of everybody speaks perfect English so usually I stood out like this  :D

Hi LB, I just opened a thread about T-Gold in the Stablecoins section of the forum

Tether Gold (XAUt) (https://www.altcoinstalks.com/index.php?topic=315185.0)

I took very quickly a look at their website.
The first thing that I look for when I look into a gold-backed stablecoin is auditing. Who checks out whether the gold backing the coins is there. How can we sure that those 7,6 tons of gold are there.
I can't find any indication of audits...

But I have some questions about stable coins and gold.

1. In your opinion, does this stable coin have a big influence on cryptocurrency ? explain why ?
2. You provide information about Stable Gold, which was developed by Tether, is the price of gold really stable ?
3. In your opinion, is it better to trade with the stable coin pair USDTxETH or trade with Bitcoin BTCxETH ?

Hi Kent,
you ask me about trading advice. You know that I love you, but I prefer not take this responsibility  :)
but there are users much more knowledgeable than me here, like MrSpasybo (https://www.altcoinstalks.com/index.php?action=profile;u=10092). He even has his own channels on telegram and on YouTube.

I'm not knowledgeable about cryptos. I come from the gold world and as you can see from my signature, I participate to the affiliate program of kinesis (https://www.altcoinstalks.com/index.php?topic=129595.0), a gold-backed stablecoin, so I only know a little about stablecoins and in particular about gold-backed stablecoins.


Tether Gold, they don't have independent audits, so how can we be sure that the gold backing their coins is there? Kinesis' gold gets audited each 4 months, the last audit was in October (https://kinesis.money/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Kinesis-Audit-October-2023.pdf). No institutional investor will ever buy a stablecoin if the assets backing those stablecoins are not regularly audited by an independent party.


USDT is backed by assets denominated in US dollar (https://www.altcoinstalks.com/index.php?topic=314971.0).
I have no confidence in the US dollar, I have no confidence in assets denominated in US dollar, and I have no confidence in Tether, so not with my money  :D

Is the price of gold really stable? is the wrong question.

The right question is Is the value of fiat currencies (like $) really stable?

Gold-backed stablecoin is a good idea, but needs the support of investors in market for it to account for significant portion of capitalization, appearing more in investor discussions. Currently, we only hear about USD-backed stablecoin, which will be one of the competitors of Gold-backed stablecoin.

Cryptocurrencies without coins are as stable as spinach without salt.
Stable coins are needed to support all cryptocurrency assets, like salt to provide a salty taste to spinach.
We cannot let go of the situation in this world if we need something stable, like our life may need economic stability rather than unclear ups and downs.
The biggest impact for stable coins is that they are able to continue to support cryptocurrency, such as Bitcoin which is supported by USDT, so there is so much USDT in circulation to support the price of Bitcoin.
This perceptions only in my place , i don't know if this rules confidence in your place , always DWYOR !

I like the metaphor with spinach and salt! ... but next time use cheese instead of salt  :D

The main task of Stablecoins is to serve cryptos you say.
Yes, from the point of view of a trader - and this is the Cryptocurrency trading section of the forum - that's correct.

Although from the point of view of the economy in general, stablecoins can serve the ordinary people even if they don't use cryptocurrency.

Stablecoins are different, they are currencies that can be taken as stable if they were fully backed by fiat, but this is not the case , the most Common case is the USDT , Although for many it is taken as stable, but I Consider that everything has its own way of being called. , it is a way to compare the Value of Bitcoin and other Cryptocurrencies.

the use of stablecoins helps combat the volatility and unpredictability of the crypto market.
Although they are called by stable coins, but the prices of stable coins also change sometimes. They don't fully stable and easy to predict, the trend of crypto market can change them. You must remember that the red market often makes the stablecoins to have higher prices. But the green market can make their prices to drop quite significantly. In my opinion, there are only not so volatile as common crypto coins.

In fact, the use of native assets like Bitcoin and Ether seems to be decreasing, while the use of stablecoins continues to grow.

Overall, this trend shows that the cryptocurrency and blockchain ecosystem is very active and evolving. It also serves as a reminder that as technology and user needs change, we need to be flexible and adapt to new trends and constantly evaluate the role and place of cryptocurrencies in the future.

Are you very sure about this information? There is no data to back up this claim, so I assume it to be false. Despite the volatile nature of Bitcoin, there are still many adoptions compared to some stable coins out there. Some investors who are short-term traders of Bitcoin only use it as a hedge to liquidity and volatility. Apart from that, there are so many Bitcoin investors, more than you can see for some stable coin, and perhaps a lot of those centralized projects that really pose a risk of contract-free, and that's what most people tend to avoid.

In my opinion, stablecoins only exist in USDT, while for other cryptocurrencies, the price will never be stable and has very scary price fluctuations because no one can guarantee profits. At least with unstable movements like that, they must be able to be exploited to seek profits that can be obtained. you get from exploiting the difference between the price you buy and the price you sell.

What it only exists in USDT?
We have many stable coins https://www.coingecko.com/id/categories/stablecoins.

No doubt that the stable coins can have fluctuation. But the price change seems not very high.
I agree that no people can guarantee the profits. Even if we invest in stable coins, there is no guarantee for exact profits.
The profits will depend on many factors, we must understand the factors.

That's true, we all have to be dependent of the use of stablecoin in one way or the other, this must be well understood by those that engage doing trading, they would have preferred using stablecoin to trade any coins they intended to buy because of the advantage of being pegged to the value of the united state dollars, this equally means that stablecoin could also be as volatile as when the USD changes in market price or value.
It's true that having stable coin as a currency pair in trading is necessary and important. It really make things more efficiently because there's no need to withdraw your money into your local currency to protect the value. If there is no stable coins in the crypto world such USDT, you can't trade fast or you are force to convert your altcoins into another unstable altcoins. If someone is using unstable currency pair in trading, it will loses the value since altcoins are just relying to the price movement of Bitcoin.

gold is the most stable currency (https://cdn.knoema.com/infographics/Knoema_Data_Driven_Gold_and_Fiat_Money.png)

I think we don't only convert our assets in to stable coins. We must convert it in to fiats. If our assets are in in the local exchanges, we don't need to convert them to stable coins. We can convert the asset directly to our national currency.

Stable coins are standard value of crypto currency.
What do you mean by standard?
Does stable coin plays a role as the main crypto coin?
Bitcoin should be the coin that plays the role as the main coin in crypto.

I also which the people that said when the price of crypto unstable or drop, we can keep our assets by converted in stable coins.
So, when the price of your coins drop, you convert them to stable coins? Why?
I think we just keep holding of our assets although the prices are decreasing. If we convert them to stable coins, it means we sell them for losses. Then, we probably can't get the coins at  cheap prices anymore.

Coins that tend to be stable are not suitable for trading because there is no price movement, so there will be no profits. It is better to trade on coins that have very fast price movements, such as Bitcoin, because Bitcoin price movements are very fast, and this has been proven over the years. From year to year, there are always price differences, so you can take advantage of these price movements to make a lot of profit.

That's true, stable coins are no price movement. Stable coin is usable to keep our fund when market goes down and  seems will touch the dip. If we save in other coins, not in stable coins we will loss. or we will trap in high price. So I think stable coins is important , as many people said above.

Yes, as you said, perhaps there is influence from those who have very large amounts of money, but it must also be taken into consideration because not all USD digital currencies are like that, because if they were all like that it could pose a serious threat to Bitcoin price movements. which can make the price collapse or can be said to control Bitcoin price movements.

This price increase is the influence of the Bitcoin price movement which is approaching the halving so that many coins are affected and follow the Bitcoin price movement, but when bearishness occurs, you must immediately secure your assets in the form of stable coins. Usually after the halving occurs, there will be several bearish halvings. There are always movements like that, so you have to stay alert and don't hold assets in the form of altcoins for too long except for Bitcoin which is suitable for holding for a very long time.

Yes, you are right, when trading volume on an exchange increases, the best way to collect more assets is to take advantage of a busy exchange to grow the assets you have.

There are some ways to enter Bitcoin market but the most favorite gate is through stable coins.

Check this chart, Bitcoin: Stablecoin Supply Ratio (SSR).

(https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GI8NEQlXYAAmXoh?format=jpg&name=900x900) (https://twitter.com/AxelAdlerJr/status/1769647551400079774)

I hope you guys knew about conspiracy theory that Tether mints their stablecoin USDT is a signal of bull run or at least a mini bull run. The chart above shows this fact.

Quote
Stablecoin Supply Ratio = BTC Market Cap / Stablecoins Market Cap.

When the Ratio increases, BTC grows because bitcoins are bought with Stablecoins. The current SSR = 18, in the previous cycle ATH SSR = 34.
If history repeats, there is space for Bitcoin to grow up more, based on SSR of previous cycle and current one.

I also always look at volume trading to sell my crypto assets, to make a profit or buy more coins when the price is dumped. Because usually at that time whales are manipulating prices. And when the market crashes we should keep our assets into stablecoins and wait to buy back potential coins.

Indeed, one of the advantages why we more often use stable coins when trading is because their value does not change significantly. Of course there will still be changes, but they won't be as significant. So, this ease our trading activities in according to accumulate, count, and also consideration more quickly to decide to sell  in what point or others.

So far, I'm I often use USDT as the most frequently used trading pair. Because of its convenience, USDT is the most reliable stable coin at any time. Yes, because the ups and downs are not that significant.

When they exist, there is nothing wrong with them at all. What fears me is the moment they may not exist anymore, that will definitely be not that easy at all. Remember, we are talking about USDT type of stuff with 100+ billion dollars, and that means we are going to end up with some stuff that may cause a lot of trouble for us. Imagine a 100+ billion dollar marketcap USDT crashing suddenly, after all its backed by just one company and anything could happen, if that happens then we are going to end up with a lot of trouble and it should not be all that easy at all. We should consider some other stuff in that case.

The method you are doing is quite correct, exchanging all the assets you own into USDT is the best choice to prepare the moment to re-enter coin which will have the potential to rise again, because when the price in the market collapses then the next price movement is price recovery and you have to Get ready to enter at the right moment because no one knows the price will fall to what price.

That's right, it's one of the purposes of stablecoins, you might be surprised to know that till now stablecoins market has crossed $150 billion of dollars, that's not a small number. --> https://www.altcoinstalks.com/index.php?topic=319521.0  Stablecoins can also be used to make money, as you said they are pegged and can't be used to earn money, but they can be, for example, there are staking pairs that require us to take USDT or any other type of stablecoins. And besides it, we can also make earnings by holding pegged coins and by selling them at high price compared to the local price of your fiat currency.

They have become an integral part, and this trend is going to increase because a time will come when more crypto investors will be generated and once they will book there profits in this bull season they will hold there assets in stablecoins and thus they will add more to the whole marketcap of the stablecoins.

you might be surprised to know that till now stablecoins market has crossed $150 billion of dollars, that's not a small number. --> https://www.altcoinstalks.com/index.php?topic=319521.0 

Yes, but let's keep in mind that market cap is not the only metric in order to gauge the impact of SC on the crypto market.
Trading volume is another metric, and to some extent it is a better one in order to get a sense of their relevance:

Quote
" despite stablecoins representing only about 10% by value of the crypto market cap, “they dominate the on-chain transaction volume – about 70% of all transaction volume.
So, from a crypto perspective ETH and Bitcoin take a backseat to USDC and USDT. These are, by volume, the value transfer mechanisms of our industry. They represent the huge majority of on-chain traffic and value transfer in our industry now.”

The 6 Types of Stablecoins (https://www.altcoinstalks.com/index.php?topic=317893.msg1524745#msg1524745)


Stablecoins represent 70% of all on-chain transaction volume!

Their impact on the market is already huge. When I read it I was surprised myself!
It makes you wonder why the interest for SC is so negligible compared to other cryptocurrencies. Just consider - for example - how little space is dedicated to SC within this forum, the section dedicated to SC is completely secondary, it looks like they could take it away... and it would barely be missed!

I see stablecoins as the means to hold your asse at hand when you're yet to conclude on what you wanted to make with it, you can covert to stablecoin and hold because the value will not diminish and you're also not going to earn from it because it is pegged with the standard rate of USD, till we made a conclusion on what to invest and then we find a suitable pair of the coin we want with the stable coin we are holding.

I only use stablecoins when the market is in a dump to enter my short-term crypto assets. because in the short term I invest in new coins or not top coins. This is very risky, that's why I need stable coins when dumping.

You are brave enough to make decisions on meme coins, risks will definitely be in front of your eyes if we make the wrong move, but I'm sure you are a careful person so you can neutralize everything,

Meme coins are very risky coins but also very profitable if we can buy at the right time before the hype. but many investors advise not to invest in this coin, because just waiting for the hype the price can rise. I agree that if you buy top coins, it's better.

Unfortunately, if you know big investors who have a lot of money, they often contribute to meme coins like this because the price movements are very fast so they can make profits quickly. Investors are not afraid of the risks because for them money is very easy to get.

For me, stable coins are more suitable for preparing entries, not welcoming dumps. You can have a stable coin when the price of the asset you are targeting is too high, so that your money can be parked in USDT to make it more comfortable when the buy moment comes.
because the conversion rate to USD is 1:1, usually when there are more USDT holders, it means they are waiting for the right moment to buy, not always when it dumps, even when it rallies many people use it to go long without having to wait for the market to dump.

I got your point and it really makes sense, stable currencies are really underrated while they are a sole part of the market, you can see if any of the famous stablecoins start to fluctuate its value (starts to depeggs) whole markets shake and started to go red. It might be true that the SC section is not so active but that does not mean it is highly underrated it's just it is underrated here on this forum, actually, we should not think of it that way.

Because SC are mainly used for trading purposes, they are not used for holding purposes, I am not saying they are not used for holding fully but partially like for small times. Like after booking profit and holding some in stable to take another entry etc.

Stable currencies play an important role and if they start to go a little up or down, the whole market bleeds, that's their power. It's just not so many people here on this forum talk about it just like many other things.

stablecoins can give people access to international financial services in areas with unreliable or constrained financial systems. Users can use decentralized finance platforms for services like lending, borrowing, and remmittances by holding stablecoins instead of traditional banking systems

First of all big investors have experience and they also possess large sum of money due to which they can freely invest in meme coins as they don't think about risk. Actually experienced traders know well that how to recover money so if they loss in one coin then they have gained such a large amount that a single loss does not effect their economy.

They know all the investment related facts and they also don't invest in any useless coins but they first know about coin whether its a meme coins or some other altcoins and select after a deep research. If someone has money and experience then I think taking risk for them is not a big issue.

Considering there are 100+ billion of them available, and I am assuming not many of them at the team, this is something that people are holding at the moment. So that means there are 100+ billion dollars of OUR money in the USDT world just by itself, probably closer to 150-200 billion with every other stable one. This means that its true that people are interested, whale or small time investor it doesn't matter. I am still worried about it by the way, doesn't mean that just because 100+ billion dollars were trusted to it, that means its safe, I still fear that it may crash down one day and get scared.
