stablecoin
A kind of crypto coin built to keep a steady price, usually matching one US dollar.

A crypto token designed to hold a stable value, usually pegged to a currency such as the US dollar, and used to move between coins without leaving crypto. Pegs can break and some stablecoins have lost theirs, so a stablecoin is not the same as a bank deposit.
