> **Visual Note:** There is a stock chart showing the price movements of two cryptocurrencies - Bitcoin and UST (United States Treasury). The chart displays the decreasing trend for both, with Bitcoin's downward slope being much steeper than that of UST. At one point in time, there was a significant amount of UST circulating in the financial market, but it was not immediately redeemable, while Bitcoin is currently redeemable, backed by only $3.1B of BTC and having been listed on Strategy for almost a year. This highlights the differences between these two digital assets in terms of usability and value stability over time.

Today, Strategy holds ~$51.5B of BTC with ~$10.5B of STRC outstanding, and STRC is not instantly redeemable.

These are obviously completely different."

> "The "stablecoin" that did the least stable thing in financial history. A Terra/LUNA reminder

A refresher for the newer butters, because this one's a classic. Do Kwon, Stanford guy, self-styled "cryptocurrency king," famous for telling critics they were too poor to debate, built a "stablecoin" called UST that was supposed to stay worth exactly $1 forever, with zero reserves backing it. Just an algorithm and a sister token, LUNA, propping each other up. Two magic beans leaning on each other. To pull people in, the attached "Anchor" protocol paid 20% interest, because nothing says "stable" like a yield you can't get anywhere in the actual economy. The "algorithm holds the peg on its own" part was the entire pitch. It was also a lie; when UST slipped off the peg back in 2021, Kwon secretly paid an outside trading firm to shove it back to $1, then told everyone the code did it."

> **Visual Note:** The image is an infographic titled "UN'STABLE COINS" by Chain Ink (@OxChainInk), featuring a table of 14 stablecoins that lost their peg, including UST ($0.00, May 2022, TerraForm Labs), IRON ($0.00, Jun 2021, Iron Finance), and USDC ($0.87, Mar 2023, Circle), along with their depeg lows, dates, issuers, and causes. The visual reinforces the post's message that "Stable" is just a name by cataloging real-world failures of supposedly stable assets, with UST and IRON reaching complete zero collapse.

"Stable" is just a name."
