You can have a stablecoin.

You can have sound money.

But you can’t have both in the same asset.

once everything is priced in Bitcoin, we will have a stablecoin and sound money in the same asset. πŸ™‚

If it’s the unit of account sure it becomes β€œstable” in the same way gold was under the gold standard.

But it doesn’t become a stablecoin, it literally replaces the very need for one.

Yeah, I guess it depends on "what it should be stable against". If the answer is "against goods", we can have Bitcoin as stablecoin - my beer will cost me the same ammount of sats :)

But if the definition is "stable against some other currecy", you are correct

Stablecoins need to be renamed to USD coins. Words matter and I think a lot of regular people are gonna get burned long term saving in a "stable"coin.
