Questions, answered

Are stablecoins safe?

They are designed to be stable but can lose their peg. Risks include reserve quality, issuer solvency, smart-contract flaws and regulation.

What is the difference between USDT and USDC?

Both are dollar-pegged. USDC is issued by Circle and emphasizes regulatory compliance and reserve transparency; USDT is issued by Tether and is the largest by circulation.
