📉 What is depegging and why is it a scary term

Depegging is when a stablecoin loses its peg and is worth not $1 anymore, but for example, $0.92 or $0.70.

Why does this happen?

🏃 Panic: Everyone rushes for the exit, and there's not enough liquidity.

🕳️ Doubts about reserves: The market doesn't believe that the issuer actually has the funds backing the coin.

🧨 Breakdown of the mechanism in algorithmic coins.

What should a newbie do?

✅ Don’t hold everything in one stablecoin.

✅ Understand what backs the coin.

✅ Remember: Whether the price will return or not — nobody guarantees.

Even when $BTC is calm, a stablecoin can still get rocked.
