Stablecoin mechanisms are the methods used to keep a stablecoin’s value consistent with a target asset, like the US dollar. These are the underlying systems and rules that govern how a stablecoin maintains its pegged value to a reference asset, such as a fiat currency or commodity. These mechanisms can involve collateralization, algorithmic adjustments, or a hybrid approach. The design of these mechanisms is crucial for a stablecoin’s resilience, transparency, and ability to hold its peg under various market conditions.
