RE: Its Happening: The Exponential Rise of Stablecoins

That is a lending platform, not a currency.
Yes if the value of the collateral drops 50%, then more collateral is required. This is true no matter what the currency.
But that is not reflective of the currency itself. If a currency is backed, then it only has 50% backing.
The biggest issue with the conversion mechanism is that it takes 5% as a fee,...
I believe that is going from Hive to HBD. I do not believe there is a fee going the other way. I will have to look into that.

Take a look at Maker DAI. It’s a stablecoin that is built on a lending platform. It’s been around for quite a while now… Loans against the supply in DAI is what creates the currency.
You have to get outside of Hive sometimes man… Where USDT and USDC are centralized as far as rheir backing, DAI is a decentralized stablecoin backed by the lending supply.
