The coin and token must be popular and solve some important problems in order to be useful to people. Now the safety of personal data is of paramount importance, as the data is hacked. Blockchain allows you to save the personal data of users.

People must be sure that their data is secure and nobody can use them without agreement of owner of the data. To do this it is very important how secure the data is hold.

Security of information and personal data is very important. Now there is demand in secure storage of information. Many people takes care about their personal data.

Bloomberg Press investigated the reserves of Tether stablecoin, and the results shocked the financial industry. Among others, USDT turned out to be tied down to such assets as short-term loans for large companies from China and loans for crypto-loan platforms like Celcius Network, and others.


The high attention of the US financial regulators to USDT tokens is no coincidence.  The stablecoin emission reaches 69 billion USD, with 49 billion tokens issued only this year. Such volumes could place the token issuer, Tether Limited, among the 50 largest banks in the USA, but the lack of transparency makes it an unpredictable and dangerous structure.


There were many accusations towards Tether Limited: lack of supply with USD, scarce information about the company leaders, giving out loans with a high risk of default. In media, Tether issuer is called 'an offshore hedge fund with a high risk level' and a potential fault of a crash of the whole crypto economy.


Meanwhile, Tether Limited continues rejecting all accusations and calls the Bloomberg research a compilation of unconfirmed speculations and an attempt to undermine their leading position.


A report by an audit company Moore Cayman on July 30th, 2021, confirms that USDT is fully supported by Tether Holdings Limited reserves that include: commercial securities amounting to 30,8 billion USD (49%), fiat and bank deposits that can be returned within 2 days and less - around 6,28 billion USD, or 10%, and US tax anticipation bills with a maturity less than 90 days and amounting to 15,3 billion USD (22,5%).


As Joe Biden's Administration has a project to include stablecoin issuers into the same legal framework as banks, Tether Limited with its full transparency might claim the place of the first crypto bank in the world. But an obligatory condition of it is a guaranteed free conversion of stablecoins into fiat, which at the moment doesn't look quite possible.


So, Tether stablecoin has been raising suspicions of not having any reserve at all for several years. Now, when the fact of supplies ties the company down to unreliable assets, the token reputation is in great danger. 
We were wondering, what scenario could make USDT more resilient - not being supplied with real assets or being supplied with the capitals from communist China?

Distribution helps to increase the security of information and it helps to protect personal data. Also distribution helps to safety store different kind of information of personal computors of different users.

Security of personal data is very important. It is necessary to create demand in the coin and have a limited issue of the coin. In such case the price of the coin will grow.

Every coin that already has developments and useful products for its users to use, the security system clearly already exists and will continue to be applied to the platform system at all times, because this is very important apart from the market price, so it will be a loss if Popular coins don't have this.

Well of course any decent crypto out there wants to make big have to take care of the security side of their crypto. No matter inflated or non-inflated.

In its recent report, International Monetary Fund attacked cryptocurrencies in general and stablecoins in particular. According to the Fund representatives, stablecoins are not reliable enough to become a part of the international financial system. Among the vulnerabilities of stablecoins they listed non-transparent emission and distribution, risk of breakthroughs, instability due to high volatility.

IMF analysts called the regulators of developing countries down to prevent losing control over cryptocurrencies - it could be facilitated with the lack of the legal framework. The report outlines that cryptocurrencies and stablecoins may bear serious danger to unstable economies.

IMF calls the international financial community to introduce global standards for crypto assets, which, according to experts, may prevent 'infection' of other markets.

"As the capitalisation of the crypto market grows, the importance of these risks to macroeconomics may grow as well", so commented the specialists.

Recently, IMF has been calling to strengthen regulation of the crypto industry more and more often. It may be a reaction to such events as legalisation of Bitcoin in Salvador, the introduction of free conversion of USDC to USD in the MoneyGram platform, and other signs of popularisation of cryptocurrencies.

We believe that the regulators may have some ground for being worried since they risk losing control over both the shadow economy and the population's finances, should people switch to cryptocurrencies more. What do you think, is this scenario really threatening or will the cryptocurrencies remain a by-product of the financial world?

Cryptocurrency industry is actively developing in different spheres. Now many projects use non-inflated coins and tokens to increase their value.

I think that first of all it is necessary to create demand in the coin. Coin must be useful. More people use the coin, more demand - higher price of the coin. And it must be a limited issue of the coin.

Now the competition between different coins are so high that it is necessary to pay attention to the coin. To do this promotion is important.

Now many coins have a limited issue and burn of the tokens. But to create a demand it is necessary to increase the number of users of the project, continue to develop project and increase its ecosystem.

As it became known USDC issuer launched the stablecoin on Hedera Hashgraph blockchain. For Hedera Hashgraph, it is the first stablecoin.
According to the company's representatives, this is an important step towards simplifying the development of DeFi applications.

Hedera Hashgraph uses directed acyclic graphs (DAG) without grouping transactions in blocks. This technology enables it to reach high capacity (up to 10'000 TPS), low delays, and high energy efficiency.

Last month the Hedera board approved a plan to invest 10,7 bln HBAR tokens (around 3,85 bln USD) into the development of the ecosystem. HBAR Foundation will distribute grants between developers, startups and other projects that work on implementing Hedera network in DeFi, NFT, CBDC, gaming, and other industries.

The board includes 23 companies, including Boeing, Google, LG Group, Nomura Holdings, Deutsche Telekom, Tata Communications, London School of Economics and Political Sciences, etc.

According to Shayne Higdon, the Head of HBAR Foundation, the support from USDC will open such opportunities to the network participants as securitization and supply chain tracking platforms.

So now Hedera Hashgraph is the sixth blockchain in USDC family. The stablecoin also works on Ethereum, Algorand, Stellar, Solana, and Tron. They are planning to launch the token on Avalanche, Celo, Flow, Kava, Nervos, Polkadot, Stacks, and Tezos.

Looks like people see great potential in USDC for applying it in different areas of the digital business. We were wondering, dear forum users, do you think such investment projects are rational?

At the recently held Money 20/20 conference, chairwoman of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) Elena McWilliams said that state regulators have begun to develop standards for interaction between banks and the crypto industry. One of the key tasks of the project is to create conditions for the development of innovative technologies and risk management.

According to McWilliams, the spontaneous existence of the crypto-industry without clear regulation can have a negative impact on the development of the innovative field itself and deprive America of leadership in digital technology development.

Currently, the FDIC, the Fed and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency at the U.S. Treasury are deciding what role banks will play in operations involving cryptocurrencies. According to the FDIC chairman, the regulators will present a series of related policy statements in the coming months.

Stablecoins received special attention at the conference. Once again, the need to regulate tokens on such points as asset security and financial stability of issuers, as well as strengthening anti-money laundering measures, was emphasized.

The standards under development will regulate the storage of cryptocurrency to secure trade transactions, its use as collateral for loans and even the opening of accounts along with fiat currencies. It also became known that the FDIC is considering the possibility of direct deposit insurance in banks issuing stabelcoins.

It seems that American regulators have seriously decided to take the cryptocurrency industry under full control, which actually contradicts the very idea of digital currencies. Do you think this will lead to the decline of the crypto market or will regulators be unable to cope with the scale of a decentralized financial system?

Problem 1: Inflationary Pressure

As we all know, inflation consists of two parts: Supply push and Demand pull. Altogether, it means that the money supply is in imbalance, and so is the amount of goods and services circulating in the economy.

But there is a solution! If someone develops an automated mechanism that would monitor the current volume of the market for all goods and services. Then more money should be issued only when there is an increase in the volume of the real market.

Problem 2: Lack of elasticity in money supply during an economic crisis

Economy does not grow all the time, and we in 2008, and then 2020 witnessed how easily it can reduce by a significant degree. What do governments do in such cases? They issue even more money to “support” the economy, while what should be done is absolutely opposite.

How is it possible to reduce the money supply once the economy is losing its power? The solution is simple: develop a physical mechanism that would destroy excess money supply and return a proportional share of a reserve that supports the money market.

And you, dear forum users, have you ever thought about such opportunities in this economy? Do you think that it is possible to overcome inflation with these solutions? We are waiting for your reply!

[reserveum]

We have already talked about such problems as inflationary pressure and the lack of elasticity in money supply at crisis. What else might be the cause of the huge inflation that we are living with right now?

Problem 3: centralized issuer

Many fiat and even some digital currencies have one centre where it is decided to issue more of that currency or not. For instance, for fiat money it would be the government, while for cryptocurrencies such as Tether it would be their founder and owner, Tether Ltd.

In other words, it is not such automated mechanism that decides how much money should be issued, but a person or a group of people with all the flaws that human brains have to offer. Instead of adjusting the size of money supply to the volume of goods and services in the economy, they continuously expand the money supply in order to lend money to the economy and thus push it forward.

Also, one more thing that a centralized issuer almost always fails to do is to provide a considerate reserve of the currency and monitor the quality of these reserves’ structure.
The solution we have come up with is to introduce the economy to decentralized money emission mechanisms, like the ones that blockchain has to offer. Then we all can go through a transition to digital money that has a transparent protocol.

Problem 4: not enough liquid reserve

As we have already mentioned above, centralized issuers often fail to save up enough reserve that could be easily transformed into valuable resources.
Throughout centuries, money was made of precious metals that were the reserve itself. Later, with the introduction of paper money, the government was the one responsible to provide enough resources, such as gold, to reserve and balance the system.

However, after the Bretton Woods Conference in 1944, gold has been losing its points as the major reserve for the whole monetary system. Then finally, in 1971, the USA declared that its money was no longer tied down to the golden standard, and then the economy stepped into a completely new era. We can even say that the money of today is not backed up by anything, it is pure air and ideas in people’s minds. The only thing that matters is how reliable is the country that issued some currency.

What can be done here? Every emission of money has to be protected by a reserve of an equivalent liquid asset. Whenever the money supply is decreased and the excess money is destructed, the reserve has to be returned to the issuer.

These are the problems we see in the modern monetary politics and the way we could deal with them. What do you think about it? Do you believe it is possible to create such non-inflationary money?

Crypto exchange Bitso, one of the largest exchanges in Latin America, along with Circle, the USDC issuer, works on a system of trans-border transactions between Mexico and the USA.

The goal of the project is to create conditions for a convenient and swift money exchange between companies and individuals of the USA and Mexico. These transactions are supposed to deal with a number of the problems that exist now, which are: limits for transactions, high operation costs, and delays, which are characteristic of the banking system.


The new instrument, named Bitso Shift, uses crypto to operate cheap and swift trans-border payments that are available 24/7 and help people exchange Mexican pesos to USD Coin stablecoins that are supported by the US Dollar. According to their press release, payment transactions with Bitso Shift are performed within 24-48 hours. All transactions are operated by fully regulated financial institutions.


According to the World Bank, in 2020, the volume of transactions between the USA and Mexico grew by almost 10% and reached nearly 43 billion USD. There are many Mexican ex-pats in the USA who regularly send money back home. However, many country residents have no access to USD accounts.


And since the trans-border exchange between the USA and Mexico is believed to be the world's largest exchange corridor, the Circle and USDC see it as a great opportunity; Jeremy Allaire, the Circle CEO, agreed to that saying: "We are happy to join the Bitso Shift initiative that demonstrates that the blockchain technology can lead the world to high-scale, effective and profitable solutions."


As you see, cryptocurrencies can help people solve their problems quickly and effectively, the problems that were there for decades and couldn't change because of the complexity and monstrosity of the standard financial system. What do you think, dear forum users, would you like to use quick and cheap transactions with stablecoins?

Regulating stablecoins and their issuers can have a positive impact on the whole industry - this is the opinion of Fitch Ratings from their report. They believe that lack of transparency hinders the stablecoins market from normal functioning and lowers the potential of tokens.


The first large economy to offer a legislative draft for the stablecoins market is the European Union. The USA is also considering an opportunity of regulating digital money issuers and operators along with banks. Fitch highlights a special role of the USA in implementing the regulation since most of the existing stablecoins are quoted to USD.


First bank licenses owners who can officially work with stablecoins will have enormous perspectives and advantages compared to the current banks and operators. If it happens, the whole financial industry will change.


According to Fitch rating, the guarantee of stablecoin holders' rights, transparent reports and issuers' publicity will raise users' trust and bring the stablecoin market new investments.
As you see, the regulation supporters continue finding new arguments for stablecoins transition to official currencies. However, everyone omits the main question: why does anyone need centralized and legal cryptocurrencies? In fact, they will turn into money units like USD and will not differ from money on digital wallets.


What do you think, do stablecoins need regulation or is it better without it?

The ideal monetary currency would be one that neither gains value (deflationary) nor loses value (inflationary). If it were deflationary, it would not be good money because everyone would just hodl in the certainty that the money will be worth more in the future and therefore they could buy more with it. Thus, the economy would then suffer extremely and jobs are cut. If the money were to lose value, then the opposite would occur. People would rather buy things today than tomorrow, because they know they can afford less in the future. Therefore, the ideal case would be if the currency did not fluctuate at all. But how that is feasible is the holy grail, since a currency, like other goods and assets, is subject to trade and demand, and thus gains or loses value one way or another.

Thanks a lot for your answer. You are right.

We believe that the ideal money is the money that keeps its purchasing power in the long-term perspective.

And in the short-term perspective, the ideal money can both grow in price (deflate) or fall in price (inflate) depending on the proportion of money supply to the economy volume.

However, it is best to eliminate the periods of the money purchasing power falls with the help of, say, money supply compression.
