What Is A Stablecoin?
Stablecoin is a type of cryptocurrency that is backed by a physical asset.

This combination of physical assets and crypto-asset enables stablecoins to maintain their market volatility. Market fluctuation is the core problem for any variety of crypto assets. With the effectiveness of stablecoins, the negative misconceptions are rectified, i.e, by pegging the crypto with a physical asset. The stablecoin development allows the users to take up the market value of the physical asset that is pegged and its other functions. The most essential factor of the physical asset is that it does not experience market fluctuations on a daily basis. There will be fluctuations but it would be very minor and not on a major scale like the cryptocurrencies. Gold, elements, fiat cash, metal, real estate, etc., are the often used physical asset for pegging the crypto coin. These physical assets are used for stablecoin development for businesses.
