With stablecoins, the cryptocurrency space really has become a lucrative and serious alternative to the traditional financial banking system. While you don't get any significant interest from your local bank, you can earn lucrative rewards from your stablecoins. That's also one of the main reasons why I prefer cryptocurrencies, especially stablecoins over fiat.
Let me explain what stablecoins are, what advantages they have, and how you can buy them on Binance with your credit card in five simple and easy steps.
What Are Stablecoins?
Stablecoins are a special class of cryptocurrencies and they are an essential part of the crypto economy as a whole. Stablecoins attempt to offer price stability relative to traditional cryptocurrencies with high price volatility like Bitcoin. The market value of a stablecoin is pegged to the value of a relatively stable reserve asset like the US dollar or gold. You can say that stablecoins are designed to mimic commodity assets or fiat currencies whilst they exist as a cryptocurrency on the blockchain.
Of course, stablecoins are also subject to the market's buying and selling forces. For this reason, the price of a stablecoin is not always strictly one US dollar. The value of a stablecoin is rather floating around the target price.
Currently, you have to differentiate between four different types of stablecoins: commodity-backed stablecoins, fiat collateralized stablecoins, algorithmic stablecoins, and cryptocurrency-backed stablecoins. Always keep in mind that a collateralized stablecoin that relies on a fluctuating asset like another cryptocurrency can be very risky.
What Are The Advantages Of Stablecoins?
Stablecoins are extremely important in the crypto economy as they have different advantages.
First of all, stablecoins offer stability in a highly volatile market. This is the main reason why investors go into stablecoins. They provide the same value to cryptocurrency investors and traders as fiat currencies in traditional markets. For example, while traditional investors have the possibility to allocate portions of their portfolios into cash or gold when volatility rises, cryptocurrency investors can move to stablecoins.
Stablecoins are also a quick and efficient medium for traders to move into the cryptocurrency markets fast. Cryptocurrency investors often turn to stablecoins under a volatile market climate, especially in times of a bear market like we are experiencing right now. By going into stablecoins, you can stay in the cryptocurrency markets. This enables you to move faster between trades. You don't have to wait days to transfer from fiat money and you also don't have to pay high fees.
Stablecoins are also bringing more liquidity and volume to the whole cryptocurrency market as stablecoins inspire confidence in the cryptocurrency market. As more people are more comfortable with engaging in the cryptocurrency markets, the number of market participants will also increase.
Finally, you can also earn interest on your stablecoin savings at rates that are much higher than at a traditional bank. For me personally, enjoying these high interest rates is the biggest advantage of holding stablecoins.
By the way, you can directly start earning interest on your stablecoins that you have bought with your credit card on Binance. It is safe lucrative and easy.
