🧵The Stablecoin Trilemma: An Unavoidable Challenge:
Stablecoins are designed to maintain a stable value, but they face a difficult trilemma: stability, decentralization, and efficient capitalization. Why is it so hard to check all the boxes?
Let’s explore this concept.
2/8 - Stability
Stablecoin users seek guaranteed stability, often pegged to a fiat currency like the dollar. This is the main goal, but achieving it sustainably while remaining decentralized poses major challenges.
3/8 - Decentralization
For many crypto players, decentralization is essential. But most reserve-backed stablecoins (like USDT) are controlled by centralized entities, which goes against the crypto philosophy.
4/8 - Capital Efficiency
Capital efficiency refers to the ability of a stablecoin to maintain its stability without having to overcollateralize (hold more assets than issued stablecoins). Too low an efficiency can lead to high costs or risky undercollateralization.
