Stablecoin

Client Benefit

£65,243

Although cryptocurrency is a fascinating field, it is still relatively new, and digital assets still have certain limitations when it comes to adopting blockchain technology. These limitations encompass high fees, financial instability, and a level of complexity that can pose challenges for the average user. A stablecoin is a type of cryptocurrency designed to have a stable value, typically tied to a specific currency or commodity. It minimises the price volatility that is often associated with cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum. This stability makes this coin more suitable for various financial transactions and serves as a store of value.

Decentralised Finance (DeFi) services are built with only crypto experts in mind, so other people miss out on these services. These unusually aren’t cost-effective for users because all DeFi products must pay Ethereum gas fees, which are excessively high due to scalability issues and users pay additional fees (on top of gas) for their services. The highly volatile nature of cryptocurrencies can result in significant price fluctuations. Users can experience substantial gains, but they also face the risk of substantial losses. This volatility can make it challenging to use cryptocurrencies for everyday transactions and as a store of value.

What did our client do?

Stablecoins are one aspect of the DeFi services which can charge users in excess of 5%-19% on an annual basis for services when all fees are taken into account. They created a software that was an improved cryptocurrency model, promoting financial inclusivity. This model is unique to anything that’s out there; it’s designed to continuously maintain its value so it can succeed when Bitcoin fails. This well-designed stablecoin model boosts confidence in the market, drives increased investment, and spurs innovation and expansion in the industry, enabling secure and easy transactions for users. With an interest rate of zero, this solution can be monetised for a variety of use cases.
