What is Stablecoin?
It is a type of cryptocurrency whose value is pegged to an outside asset (currency or commodity), such as the U.S. dollar or gold, in order to minimize price volatility.
With stablecoins, a dollar sent is received as a dollar. As a stablecoin user, you can send money across the world and it will retain its value over the transaction. If you wish to use stablecoin, you need to buy it on an exchange and then also buy the same network coin, such as Bitcoin, Ether, Stellar, or Terra, to pay the sending fees in the wallet.
Stablecoins are a lower risk way to get started with earning in DeFi, having relatively high return and rewards to incentive users.
