The only bad thing with USD based stable coin is you have to trust that the USA will keep paying its debts longer than you hold the stable coin. | ||

The US has no reason not to pay its debts. Its debts AFAIK are USD denominated. How often has a country defaulted on debt in its own currency? I can think of one example and I thought it was a stupid thing to do at the time (it was forced by creditors, presumably as a punishment) and it was not a complete default, but a haircut. | ||
