Viewpoint: Stablecoins cannot save the dollar from a crisis in the short term


Minsheng Securities released a research report stating that stablecoins may not save the US dollar credit from fire and water in the short term at least. The difference between stablecoins and gold is that, first, their supply may also get out of control, lacking an objective constraint mechanism; second, they are not globally recognized as reliable reserve assets. The main view of Minsheng Securities is that the growth of stablecoin market value mainly comes from the speculative, investment, or hedging demand for digital assets, as well as the increasing demand for participating in international trade settlement. Perhaps time can solve the problem, but at least in recent years, stablecoins have not truly stabilized the US dollar.
