Is 2018 the year of stablecoins?

[ledinasaliasi]

i really not think that is gonna be easy for the market to be stable forever, rightnow, the market is still bearing serious drops from the world news, it so sensitive that even a small bad news can make entire market drop badly, morover, no one is controlling the stablization of cryptos world, so it depends on big whale who can control the price whenever they want.

Not all coins are stable in 2018. In fact, all coin prices follow the rise and fall of Bitcoin prices. And I noticed there are 2 fairly stable coins that is LTC and Monero.

What fun is it to invest in stable coins?  Cryptocurrencies is about creating fortunes like many already have.  Cryptos are a high risk investment with the possibility of high rewards.  Just don't throw your money at projects without researching, be patient and you'll eventually see profits. 

I agree with you. Crypto currencies are meant to be an asset and be volatile in nature so that investors can gain from it. But one can prevent loss and increase his holding by converting his holdings into stable coin when the market is falling and again converting the stable coin to old holding as the market begins to rise. In this manner lose can be prevented and also one’s holding can be increased. Alongside crypto currencies, it is also necessary to have stable coins to ensure and secure our profits during dips.

well 2017 is the crypto boom year while 2018 i think will be the crypto acceptance year,come back to this message at the end of 2018 and tell us have many governments are gonna accept crypto ,maybe a dozen.

[Longfellow27]

Just a personal view and opinion, I think it's not this year yet. Stability is uncontrollable. This is due to the fact that this coins are not just used for simple online transactions. It is used by people to gain money. And in any time they just sell the coins depending upon there need or when they could profit. When these coin ratio of supply and demand changes its value as well changes. These makes it unpredictable. So stability may still be a question hanging in the process.

crypto markets cant not be stable for long period , bcoz its all about fud and fomo ,,
so either it will pump or dump .
bcoz if get stable then people will have no scope to earn profit .

There is an advantage and disadvantage of the stability of coins. The advantage of price stability is that the trade or investor will not fear of his capital or money that he put in cryptocurrency wallet. The devaluation of coin also may prevent when the price is stable. But somehow, the disadvantage of price stability is good in a matter that we will not fear for the tomorrow's value of the coin thay we hold. It is an advantage for a trader who really knows about trading and knows how to play the game of trading.
Price stability is really needs by economy to prevent inflation or economic crisis but it helps to boost the economic growth.

Indeed. There are disadvantages and advantages for everything in the world. Its like two sides of the coins. The advantages of stable coins is that they are less volatile in the market and are the least risky coins to keep money invested it moreover, they are usually centralized, so they might find a way to mainstream of a country and someday become a currency.

Whereas on the other hand stable coins have disadvantages such as the profit is also negligible if we invest in them, also they are based on centralized network which means the security and privacy of the transactions is compromised.

«Allocating to cryptos may be risky but the risk return has been hugely positive in the last few years. However, the lack of price stability still prevents the wide adoption of cryptocurrencies from several sectors such as institutional money. There are also a set of cases where a stablecoin is required even for a very short period» (read it here: https://medium.com/@globcoin_io/bringing-stablecoins-to-the-next-level-357879430b0f)

What's your opinion on stablecoins?

I don’t think the year 2018 will wholly be of coins being stable. Moreover I don’t think that coins are even stable currently. The volatility in the market currency is higher than ever before. Crypto currencies have gone under huge correction after a huge pump in December 2017 and January 2017. The crypto market is in its worst dip currently and it’s the best time to invest because I don’t think crypto’s will fall down more or remain stable for long. In the month of June, crypto market will rise and see a bullish trend for sure.

I personally think 2018 is the crucial time for all new coin and altr coin . only good and potential coin will be good . so may coin are on the way to in the  market . if the market is green then its ok but if market red then its too risky for new coin

[pshawji147]

About the price stability can only be said in part, in this year it was clearly shown how volatility simply killed many investors. And while there is volatility to people it is interesting, with stability it is better to invest in gold or assets.

There is already stable coins in the world, like fiat and bonds, the principles of crypto are others, if markets make hard to connect these assets for sure some cryptos will develop to add liquidity and make a bridge like tether.

True. There are already fiat currencies in the world and there is really no need for fiat coins to be honest. Fiat coins were useful only when anonymous exchanges didn’t have fiat currency trading pair, but now as most of the exchanges are getting regulated, the have option of trading with fiat currencies.

Also stable coins are centralized and redefine the meaning of crypto currencies as cryptos are based on decentralization and anonymity. Cryptos must be treated as assets, but digital coins like tether can be said to be a currency as they don’t fluctuate much in prices.

Hi, to my mind, stablecoins are just currency pegs, and currency pegs are certainly not impossible — there are many currency pegs still being maintained.

I`m confident, that an ideal stablecoin should be able to withstand a great deal of market volatility, should not be extremely costly to maintain, should have easy to analyze stability parameters, and should be transparent to traders and arbitrageurs. These features maximize its real-world stability.

[pshawji147]

just hold bitcoin , as per my knowledge we have to be patient , i spoke with different people everyday abot this  and their only recommendation is to hold it .

[CryptikEnigma]

I think that the market has now become very unstable and it is difficult to make forecasts about certain coins, especially for the long term

[kruzer200]

I would argue with this statement because I believe the contrary, 2018 started quite ambiguously and now there is something on the market that I do not understand at all. I hope someone can clear it out for me.

[sureblinks]

we really need to watch it this year.. crypto is another side of income for some persons  so they watch and read the market very well.. i also think this year we will have stable coin..

[BrBoy]

2018 is more likely a year of unstable coins, because there have already been many cases when quite promising coins could not withstand strong dumps in price and simply collapsed.
