kaal:claim:3782216-034

Stablecoin collateralization and a robust decentralized economy form a chicken and egg problem: a stablecoin cannot reduce its backing until a robust decentralized economy exists, and that economy cannot be built without an efficient stablecoin.

Source quote, verbatim
We need a robust decen- tralized economy before a stablecoin can reduce its collateralization. We need an ef- ficient and useful stablecoin before we can build a robust decentralized economy. This is another of the many chicken-and-egg problems that hamper the adoption of new systems.
