Stablecoins are cryptocurrencies, in which the value of which is pegged, or tied, to that of another currency, commodity or financial instrument. In other words, Stablecoins are intended to be — and largely have been — less susceptible to volatility because they are backed by another asset. Theoretically, they serve as a safe-harbour to the daily fluctuations of all other cryptos like Bitcoin (BTC) or Ethereum (ETH)
